    So…..

    ##spoiler

    Bit of a ho hum episode after last week.

    Yes, the prison is a nasty place, we get it, while pretty well done I don’t think we needed a whole episode on it.

    The security looks outstanding though, I wonder how he breaks out ?

    ##endspoiler

    You really don't seem to like the building the story episodes? I like them, it doesn't have to be pew pew every week for me. 😉

    ##spoiler
    I know that Saw Gerrera is a cool character to cartoon watchers but he was such a dumb shit in Rogue One when he chose to die for no good reason that my care factor for him is pretty low.
    ##endspoiler

    I don’t even think us cartoon watches really like him, we just got more development…he still seems like a dick

    Speaking of cartoons, anyone trying the tales of the Jedi? The 3 ep dooku arc is awesome, please watch those 3 if you’re going to watch any, as was the Ahsoka arc although that did rely on having watched season 8 of clones wars a little bit

    ##spoiler
    Don’t mind the slower andor ep…we know it’s a long season and they’re really building…would rather see this that he manages to break out on his first night like a super hero or something

    @Kiwiwomble really enjoyed the Tales of Jedi. Episode 6 in particular was excellent. I wish they were a bit longer as they could’ve done a bit more with the Dooku story. But I’m not complaining and I get that it was about getting content out quickly.

    As for Andor, really like where they are going. I don’t mind the fluff around the main story theme that is building.

    OT: Is anyone else watching The Rings of Power. I’m a big of LOTR and the Hobbit movies fan and read the Hobbit. It’s taken a little bit to get used to, but am quite enjoying it. Star Wars, sport and LOTR is about the extent of my TV watching these days.

    Agree. If you are a fan of the prequels or the storyline there, these Dooku shorts are a valuable watch to fill in some gaps. When the movies came out I was always puzzled about who Dooku was and how he fitted in. These stories explain it all quickly.

    Andor last ep connection with R1

    ##spoiler
    Read that one of the guys in Andors prison work unit is 'Melshi" (the rebel soldier who leads the team that rescues Jyn Erso from the Imperial labor camp in Wobani during Rogue One.
    Might be a pointer toward the upcoming escape.

    Dooku was a fantastic character ( a lot of this is down to the amazing Christopher Lee ).

    I’d love to see what him and Qui Gonn got up to in their younger days.

    It is only short but explains Dooku's fall to the dark side and how Qui Gonn (and his death) played a part in that.

    @Crucial I really liked that aspect, adding depth in the same way the Clone Wars did to Anakin.

    Just finished Andor, so good. Once you adjust to the pacing, the acting and plot is top notch. All the connections, spying and character interactions are fantastic.

    Set design is excellent as well.

    There are certainly little surprises each episode.

    ##spoiler
    Like Mon Mothma and Vel Sartha being cousins.

    What's the go with Dedra and Karn? That whole Karn arc has been too deliberate to not be leading somewhere but the scene with the two of them was awkward

    im enjoying andor but wondering if i should miss a few weeks and binge rather than one at a time....

    also, this was fun, and jokes aside i thought it would have been a better story

    @Kiwiwomble Definitely a better story.

    Pretty long episodes to binge, I'm enjoying the intensity of the show. Extremely well made.

    I think that next cab off the SW rank is S2 of Bad Batch. This trailer was released a while ago but the geek gossip is that the whole show has had an overhaul. Darker, different animation, less emphasis on the kid part of "kidult".

    The latest episode of Andor was great. This is definitely an adult show.

    Yep. Grown up SW. Loving it.
    Like the kidult stuff too but nice to have another genre.

    ##spoiler
    leaving the fate of Serkis unknown is not something other SW vehicles would have done. Great performance by him too.

    def worth watching. It may work well to binge in chunks as sometimes the episode breaks leave you a little shortchanged.

    What I’m enjoying a lot is the amount of blokes with sidies.

    Cos the imperials all had them in ANH being filmed in the 70s and all…..

    It’s a nice touch.

    Well, apart from Boba Fett ( he got his own TV show ) and also Captain Phasma ( hopefully she doesn’t )

    Also “somehow” Palpatine survived.

    ….and what exactly happened to the third sister ?

    Ridiculous post
