I still can’t believe how good this show was. When they first announced it I was like “Andor? That boring dude from Rogue One?” Just shows what good writing can do. More of this please

Great series. I only started watching about a week or so ago. I think that might have been a good thing since I didn't have to wait between episodes. I watched about one or so a day and finished ep. 11 last night in time to watch the finale today.

I enjoyed the whole thing, even the early episodes which some were complaining were slow. I thought it was a great mix of characterization, plot and action. The finale was a lot of chaotic action, which is to be expected in a finale. I'm trying to wrap my head around who got off of the planet and who was left behind.

Andor and Luthen of course are set to get out. Also, Brasso, Bix, the guy whose dad was tortured, and the daughter of Ferris looks like they will get off - so they will likely play a part when season 2 gets here. Not sure about the two chicks from the heist but looks like they have an exit strategy. Syril looks like he may have made major inroads with the supervisor lady by saving her bacon.

Not sure what the status quo on Ferris will be. I'm guessing even if the locals end up with the upper hand temporarily, the Empire will send reinforcements to clamp down.

The end credits scene was not really surprising, but it confirmed what many of us thought about the prison manufacturing objects.

How does a show make me teary eyed watching a box-like droid slowly go down the road, spin around, and display a hologram? My two favorite droids are him and K2-SO. If they end up being the same CPU…

That whole funeral sequence and the chaos afterwards was masterful. What a brutal riot scene that showed the tyranny of the empire better than just about anything else has.

I’m so happy for Syril, he made more progress than anyone this episode.

Best SW content since the original trilogy. A damn masterclass in storytelling.

That post credit scene. Hits you right in the gut; Cassian and the prisoners were building the Death Star’s weapon on Narkina 5 and it’s eventually going to kill him.

If you would’ve told me three months ago this would be my favorite show of the year I would’ve said you’re crazy. I

I have a list of mile long of shows to get to, but I might just watch this for a second time.

Best writing this season: maarva’s speech or Luthen’s

She went from ultra hard arse to pretty much a puddle at his feet when she realized that he saved her from being pummeled to death or worse.

I’ve been a Star Wars kid then guy my whole life. This might be my favorite content ever. The best part is you don’t have to be a Star Wars person to love it. It’s the story of sacrifices that people make for a cause they believe in. Awesome stuff. Gonna go watch Rogue One again.

There's a post-credit scene that finally answers a burning question.



I was way wrong on my guess for those parts.

Awesome show. This is how a modern Star Wars should be handled. It has by far shown the most complexity to the SW universe. The best show I've seen in a while.

Kinda feel bad for the little bitch Syril. He saved Dedra's life, but he is no doubt destined for the friend zone

I kind of want a Syril and Dedra spin-off show.

I dunno. I got the impression she was VERY grateful.

It will be interesting to see the fallout for the events of this episode. It was a mess from the Empire's perspective. Lots of deaths, failure to get Andor even though he was there, etc. If Syril was shite canned for the earlier mission, I'm guessing Dedra will catch a lot of flack for this one since she was the one calling the shots.

Why would Mon Motha talk about those things in the car when she said her driver was an ISB plant? Poor writing in a great show.

I thought maybe she was doing it on purpose to establish a reason for the funds issue - ie: her husband had a gambling problem. This might take some heat off of them finding out she was funding rebel activities.

Of course that would not explain why she introduced her daughter to the gangster's son.

When he first arrived in the prison I said watch it be part of the Death Star that kills him. The irony is great as we know the show will come full circle.

I believe she set up her husband and now the ISB thinks the money he is taking money. She played it perfect if so.

The whole point was that the ISB driver would hear it. It gives her an alibi for tge missing money.
