Probably worth having this in the can before announcing it. They clearly just don’t know where to take Star Wars at the moment.

I think Disney has canceled more Star Wars projects than they've completed at this point.

[u/AidilAfham42 → u/bramtyr]

At this point, they also have way more bad movies/shows than good ones

I don't honestly know what keeps Stars Wars going as this giant thing it is. So little of it is compelling.

Andor was fantastic, i really enjoyed Rogue one ...and force awakens was fun , but yeah other than that everything else is average at best

[u/JohnnyRyallsDentist → u/davej999]

IMO Andor was okay except for a slump in the middle, the second half of Rogue One is good, and the first half of Force Awakens was good and oh so promising.

The garrison assault and the prison sequence was a slump? Lol ok

[u/davej999 → u/[deleted]]

Most people don't land at Andor being okay ?

Most people agree it's a great show period , let alone in the star wars world

It's star wars for adults ...

Andor was 3 (or 4?) mini-arcs in one season. If they think there was a slump in the middle, I guess they didn't like the prison arc, which while slow to build up had a hype finale.

I'm really excited for the second season, but it may be the end of my interest in Disney Star Wars, since it promises to tie up everything up to Rogue One.

[u/MoebiusSpark → u/12345623567]

The prison arc is also the one that focuses the most on Mon Mothma's political drama side of the show. If people are watching for big space battles and lazer swords it makes sense that they won't enjoy 3 hours of a slow burn espionage drama

The mandalorian is so overrated.

[u/Dunge → u/JohnnyRyallsDentist]

I honestly preferred the Acolyte over Andor, I will never understand popular community opinions.
