Solid finale and overall a great show.
I agree. The only issue I had with the finale is they never explained At Attin. Probably was orchestrated by Palpatine and there were a few hints to indicate that, but an explanation would have been nice.
Also, the At Attin mint has to be a major boost for the New Republic’s economy.

They did good work on this show. I would be excited for more. Between this and Andor S2 Star Wars will go on a nice little run. I think the Mando movie will come after Andor in 2026 and Ahsoka S2? They should be able to this into an extended run with good content

The control room looked like something from the Empire.
Also Jod's back story, seems strange he had to watch his Jedi master be killed but he survived. If it was the Empire, they would have killed him too.

The pirates will have to go through a series of challenges that involve underground slides, booby traps, and working as a team. During this fun ol' Jod will tell a tale and make us tear up. A climax will ensue in which the droids are overthrown in a short battle or clever reprogramming. Then the supervisor (Anthony Hopkins lookalike or similar) wraps it up by letting the pirates and Jod live amongst them in peace and prosperity. Jod smiles at her Mom hinting at a future romance. The End. It's a kids show

Loved the show. Nothing too serious or groundbreaking, but just an enjoyable ride.
I didn't really question the whole At Attin mint backstory. To me, it was just an old republic mint that few knew about and when the republic fell, it was forgotten. They said the last thing they heard from the outside world was that the Jedi were traitors. If Palpatine knew about At Attin, you'd think they would have heard more after that.

Was a very enjoyable finale. I'm glad we got some answers about Jod's Force training. I was kind of hoping there would be a man inside the supervisor like a Wizard of Space Oz...

Started strong and fizzled out imo

Although a joke synopsis, I did get this part right.

I would’ve like Jude Law to have been a little more Jedi-powerful and a lot less sniveling weasel when dealing with his pirate buddies. But I don’t really have any complaints about the series. I enjoyed it well enough.
Better than Boba, not Andor though.

My main complaint with the finale is that Jod is supposed to have gone fully into his pirate self. He already has his crew killing and rounding up the locals. So, he is not above it. He could've won the day at any point by killing, or at the very least, tying up the kids. Instead, he did half measures to try to win. I understand it is a kids show, but I felt like they could've done more with this. Maybe, he had grown to actually like the kids and could not bring himself to doing what he had to. So, show that. Maybe have him sacrifice himself for the kid rather than putting up a C effort to try to win.

Just finished series. Very fun, enjoyable show. There were some huge plot holes but that is okay. It is meant to be a kid friendly show and not really cannon.
The ratings sucked for this show so that is not good. SW needs more fun in it and this show brought that factor.

I think they have only released the ratings for the premiere, so I’m hoping word of mouth improved the ratings as the season went on. It’s basically Solo all over again with the reception of The Acolyte deterring people from tuning in.

I guess my biggest question is how did the power come back on so fast? Jod had completely destroyed the central computer. There's no way they just rerouted power from elsewhere that quick. It felt like it ended way, way too abruptly.

I just finished the show. Definitely kid-oriented, which is fine for what it is.
I'd put this top 3 on SW series. Andor for the mature crowd, Mandalorian for teens and young adult tier, this for kids.

Finally watched the show...only enjoyable thing Disney Star Wars has done in years.
Yes its still woke...but unlike other shows, the story takes the precedent over "the message"

show was watchable, but did not like final episode, it felt mashed together, rather than have 2-3 more episodes. I think they felt it might end, so they got it mashed together to get season done.
ratings were horrendous, blame that on disney and kennedy, no one has any expectations from either, so people are not even giving them a try.
fun show, and jude law was as good as he always is,

I had absolutely no zero desire to watch this until this past week when I was snowed in with nothing else to do. Turned out to be a solid effort. Wasn't great, wasn't bad. It was fun enough, you could tell it was aimed at kids and bringing kids into Star Wars which is something they really do need to do if they want it to live on.
Jude Law was good, I thought he was going to be a Cade Skywalker type character where he was raised with the Jedi and turned against them after something happened.
The kids were annoying most of the time but they were kids being thrown into shite and then going into panic mode, pretty realistic in the way they would actually handle it.
I give this a C+ or a B- effort. Worth watching but if you miss it, you won't be missing out.
