No one said we didn't. I was just curious as to the intent when no one here hates Andor.

Who hates Andor?
there are A LOT of people who do, mainly the SW's 'pew-pew' type fans. also the ones who say SWs cannot be SW's without Jedi in it

if you used FB I would give you a link to a group with a lot of hate in it

@Atlantis its not so much that it was 'cancelled' more that it is a known outcome,, a known timeframe-- its bookended so to speak by the start of the show on one end and ROGUE ONE on the other

the showrunner had a specific plan for the show with time jumps to allow for the 'evolution' of Cassian from what he was to Rebel master spy. Gilroy is also not interested in a long term commitment to the franchise either

We'll have to what happens with it. The first season was definitely watchable and the fact that it did not show a lot of things usually associated with Star Wars was a plus - helped the show have its own identity.

Some ANDOR "hate" for your reading pleasure...some nuanced, some not :icon_lol:

For me, Andor fails on multiple level... ok no jedi, lightsabers. barely any aliens or other sw stuff. as someone said, maybe they should make a Jurassic park movie without dinos. if i want a good drama series, House of dragon or Foundation adaptation are magnitudes better. grittyness doesnt make andor since it is flat and overstretched.

Ashoka. Andor was so boring


Lloyd Hendricks
It's so much real-world I can see why some people hate it

Just a little out of place to me cause other than two moments in Rogue One the Rebels have always been squeaky clean morally, however unrealistic. I'll just take some time for me to get used to it as this morally grey rebellion gets fleshed out more.

It depends on what you want out of it. It's great to have a Michael Clayton political thriller. But a Michael Clayton political thriller isn't something I would have wanted to see when I was a kid. MMA and professional wrestling are completely different and they're both great.

Different, not better..

It's rated quite well but I am surprised that they cancelled it after 2 seasons.

some more on the "it wasn't cancelled". 2 seasons was the plan

note the date of the post and the article linked


also 2 seasons and done was stated in August 2022 -- BEFORE the show ever came out

· November 23, 2022


“We’re going to skip a whole year. We come back a year later, many things have changed,” Gilroy said. “And we’ll do three episodes, and we’ll jump a year. And we’ll do another three episodes, and we’ll jump a year. And we’ll come back to the final four episodes, and those episodes will be the last three days really before Rogue One, and the final scene of the show will be walking you into Rogue One.”

Now they have pushed S2 to April 2025

spacing out shows so there is some SWs show on first run, for more of the year

SWs Skeleton Crew coming Dec this yr as well. Also a YTr who had the 'special access' that Disney gives to some YTrs, when they promise not to give details, has hinted that several characters from other shows may appear in Andor S2. She hinted at the crew of the Ghost from REBELS as well as a live action Omega Fett
