It's the Star Trek: Beyond syndrome of a series' ratings being determined by franchise predecessors and franchise fatigue rather than its own quality. I had been thinking about not watching Andor because I was expecting the prequel-of-a-prequel to mean was wrong with Obi-Wan squared.

The name is loving terrible, you don't get watchers if people don't understand what they will see in the show. Say what you want about the Mandalorian or the Book of Bobba Feet: starwars fans hear the name and they know what they will get. Whoever selected the name of this show should be fired before we get a Asoka Tano show named "Fulcrum" or "Snips", a show about Captain Rex named "CT-7567" or " and a Anakin Skywalker show named "WIZARD!*". Was naming this show "Rogue" (0 implied) too loving hard? When i first hear a starwars show was named Andor, my first reaction was "Endor? Is it a show about ewoks ? Because i am not 4?". And it's a loving waste because the show is gooooooood.

*Wizard would have more people watching than Andor.

something simple like Rebellion

All better, even the worst one. Or even just add "Captain" in front of Andor.

Halfway through Andor.

A lot of fun so far, feels like an episodic Rogue One

Really liking it

It's really good and as much i don't like how the overall pacing is so slow, once it's over you are happy it was a slow burn and took the time to breath.

Yaddle is a female member of Yoda's species, she's in a bunch of the Jedi Council scenes in the prequel trilogy.

A whole Tale of the Jedis episode is about her death:

Basically The Book of Boba Fett was sold on the idea of Boba becoming the Don Corleone of Tattooine and he instead wound up becoming the Joe Biden of certain neighborhoods of Mos Espa, at best.

The Acolyte trailer looked good to me. I am always up for watching Carrie Ann Moss be stylish. But I saw it on Youtube and the comments are a complete shitshow. What is up with people nowadays. Always whining about everything.

It's because pointless culture warfare controversies are what generates views and therefore money. It's what's up with people. Just a "WOKE!!!!!!!" in a red font in your video thumbnail and watch your viewership triple. Thank you, social media algorithms.
