I can't fucking stand Andor, will never understand why such a terrible show gets praise. Gave up after the Heist Arc, which was nothing but a bunch of unlikable twats bitching that Cassian Andor wasn't one of the cool kids, then they do a long ass marching scene, then they all die. I should have liked their deaths because of how truly disgusting they were, but honestly I felt nothing.

    Same. I never got past the first half of the season just because of how boring it was. Everything is slow and nothing happens.

    The ending could be amazing, but I am not going to bother if I have to claw myself to it. I got better shows to watch.

    I expected to get down voted into oblivion. Instead I find a kindred spirit. That's good.

    Andor did nothing but waste my time and the fanbase is incredibly toxic, unable to accept any criticism of the show without resorting to insults about how "Oh you can't pay attention without lightsaber fights."

    Nothing happens in this show. I really tried to pay attention but the dead air had me reaching for my phone.

    Just 30 plus minutes of people complaining about Andor being on their team and doing nothing to endear me to them. One of them wrote a book... woo...

    And on the episode with the heist actually happening, it opens with fifteen minutes of marching. No dialogue, nothing of note. Just marching. Why?

    And the show doesn't even seem to be made by someone who actually likes Star Wars. Why do they have realistic guns? Why are there dudes in military uniforms instead of Stormtroopers? Are they embarrassed by Star Wars imagery?

    Andor is a snoozefest that excells at wasting the audience's time. I wouldn't mind the talking scenes if people talked about anything of substance, but it's always Empire Bad. I get Empire Bad, it's the premise of the setting. I don't need to be reminded Empire Bad.
