What a spectacular hour of television. From the thrilling prison break to the revelation of a double agent within the midst of the Imperial Security Bureau, this episode really had it all. And that included the chance to see two great actors – Stellan Skarsgård and Andy Serkis – really get the chance to show […]
I’ve complained in the past about Andor feeling more like a film cut into episodic slices, with endings that didn’t push the narrative forward, leaving us with a lack of momentum leading into the week-long wait until the next episode. But “Nobody’s Listening!” absolutely crushed it with its end of episode button and I cannot […]
There are few things I enjoy more than when a series pulls together an episode that allows us to see just how a seemingly disparate group of characters – scattered around a country, planet, galaxy – are all interconnected in ways you wouldn’t have anticipated when the series begin. “Narkina 5” was that episode for […]
After the highs of “The Eye,” it would have been easy for Andor to take a beat, allow its characters to collect themselves, and take a week off before delving into the next great set piece of the series. So, it says a lot about the series that “Announcement” felt almost as tense as the […]
It’s truly something that a series, centered around a character we all know will be making it out alive and well, can create such a deep feeling of suspense that it has you on the edge of your seat during a heist like this one. But Andor pulled it off – completely – making us […]
Well, my new favorite Andor character might just be Syril’s meddling mother Eedy (the great Kathryn Hunter), who in just a couple of scenes has added not only a layer of humor to the tense proceedings of the series, but also enough character shading to Syril to make him more than the two-dimensional baddie the […]
This week’s episode of Andor moved the action away from Ferrix and to Aldhani – a planent with not much going for it except for an Imperial base that is perfectly set-up to be raided by some rebellion assets with the help of our boy Cassian – and Coruscant – where we get introduced to […]
In the interest of honest reviewing, I feel that I should start this review of Andor off with the statement that I wasn’t a fan of Rogue One. I certainly didn’t hate it – I appreciated that the story was allowed to go to darker places than most Star Wars properties and I really liked […]
When we arrive at the end of a series – or season – of television, one of the questions a critic asks of the series is “Why?” Why did it end the way it did? Why did we go on that particular journey with those characters? Why did this story need to be told? And […]
Now that is the kind of episode I’ve been waiting to see from Obi-Wan Kenobi since we started on this journey a month ago. With Part V – and with only one more episode left to go – we finally get a chance to see just who our central characters really are at this stage […]
