The literal embodiment of everything wrong with Star Wars and Lucasfilm.What is KK?
She seems to be a producer or something, named Kennedy something. Dunno what she did or does in SW, and don't care much to learn either.What is KK?
I have my issues with the Star Wars universe... for example I tried to re-watch, Rogue One... A bit tedious to me... but by watching it you can understand that Cassian Andor, was/is a douche, useful douche for sure and in Rogue One, he also killed cold-blooded...Watched the first 3 episodes, and surprisingly this ain't bad. I've given up on all the others (and don't like most of the movies), but this is a bit darker. And one of the female leads looks like a younger St Vincent and that's a big plus. No really bad acting so far either.
You have to remember this was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. Makes suspending disbelief easier.Hi

Among my issues:
The Technology... makes no sense. Faster Than Light Travel is commonplace, as are androids and robots in general, yet, manual labor is commonplace... and those laser blasters and those stormtroopers, straight out of those old Chinese actions flicks, where the bad guys wait patiently for the hero to dispatch their compadres before attacking, and of course be dispatched... And the stormtroopers armors, what's their use? since they are always ineffective: one blast and they're gone so why the helmet and entire plastic looking armor ? I could go on. In Andor they even have CRT screens.. Holograms are always fuzzy.. Why? in 1977, they could be accepted, we didn't know any better but right now with Flatscreens ,everywhere on everything?... One can fish for explanations and rationales, but FTL-capabilities, CRT screens and heavy manual labor? ...
Often the CCTV looks like something from the 1950's... In a starship they should have had cameras everywhere... yet... the heroes, can disguise themselves and enter in highly secure facilities... We are all getting HD in our houses on Earth today, yet a FTL-capable civilization gets CRT grainy pictures? And Holograms
There is a childish, almost medieval aspect to Star Wars that just bother me.. I know some of the inspiration came from, but ...
They love bars, that clearly cater to only humanoids, of course, the dancing-fuzzy holograms...
yet I so far like Andor, perhaps it is me yearning for some good SciFi series but.. I'll take Andor .. it is better than Obi, the Mandalorian (yeh! right carrying a kid , everywhere you go...even to battle, sometime) or Bobba Fet...
Hope episode 3 is a harbinger of better things to come ... I now, know this will be far removed from a "The Expanse"-level series, by several light-years.
Peace

Hahahahhaahahhahahhahahahahahhahahahahhaaahahahahhhaaaaaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhh. This is the most ridiculous thing I've read all week. You act like this fiction, let me stress that word again FICTION, should adhere to the scientific model by which we know the world today? Do you think this is somehow a documentary? Your incapability to suspend your sense of wonder be-tokens a serious lack of substance abuse at an early age. If you want a semblance of reality go watch the "Discovery" channel, oh! wait a minute, most of that is fiction as well but they dress it up like it's got more "realzies" on the screen. Go find a bong.Hi

Ha! Given the "depth" of your perception, I'm sure your "ignore" list is already very longMy ignore list grew a bit.
Peace.
But Andor is different - the show is far removed from Disney’s usual shtick of reference-heavy, poorly written slop, packed with easter eggs to distract from lack of substance.
Andor actually feels like it takes place in another world, an interesting place filled with janky, retro-futuristic technology and discontented rebels; at points, it almost feels like Blade Runner, a gritty, grounded look at the lives of the regular folk living under the boot of the Empire.
Cassian himself is a likeable mess, a far cry from a pure-hearted Jedi; he’s a rugged survivalist trying to dig himself out of the problems he keeps creating.
re: light sabersHi
It's official: I like Andor.. so far ...
Entertaining , if I may in an Adult way. It slow, for sure but keep you thinking. So far. Good, hope it stays good. SO far they haveavoided light-sabers... Hope it stays that way.
Peace.
