Pretty interesting trailer. I am excited to see how they treat the time before any of the Star Wars we have seen before. A true chance to clear the decks and do something a bit different. Not a lot of star power here so they are going to need some solid writing.

Hopefully Andor hasn’t ruined Star Wars shows for me. The trailer looked good, but so did Obi-Wan’s.

I think this is the first Star Wars trailer to get ratio'd. Its been happening with the Marvel garbage for awhile. Star Wars from a "lesbian perspective" + "Frozen meets Kill Bill" makes me think you're going to be in for a rough ride T-bone.

As usual, a fine trailer that doesn't mean much. I will say the fight choreography looks better than any of the recent SW stuff. Seems more of a Crouching Tiger vibe than Kill Bill.

Kicks off tonight with a two episode premiere. I always have high hopes for these new series but I'm not sure about this one.

The debut episode was almost interesting, which means it was several steps above Andor.

Oh hey, Disney is milking the Star Wars cow again. It jumped the shark in 1999

Yeah, but a Jedi was murdered and now they are being hunted. What an amazing plot.

Did the Jedi ever succeed at anything? They seem better suited for jobs as mall cops than they are for a lofty responsibility like serving as the Republic's lead security team.

I found Andor really interesting and a slow burn. This one so far.... not so much. Pretty milquetoast material out of the gates.

I couldn't stick with Andor. The burn was too slow, like geologic time scale slow. This show will probably suck, too, though, but at least my kids didn't fall asleep while watching it.

Yeah I could see kids not liking Andor too much. I'll continue to watch this one, just found it a bit boring.

Although it's a low bar, Andor was the second best Disney Star Wars media behind Rogue One. Take the idiot Jedi out of anything and it's 10x better.

They succeed at taking earthlings' money. Bags and bags of it.

The actors, writers, and producers are, so yeah, probably why it sucks.

Watching the Critical Drinker hammer on all recent Star Wars, Disney, and Marvel releases is one of my YouTube favorites right now.

I thought DeSantis had put a stop to this.

This was in the can before DeSantis got his Disney stomping lifts delivered. I think UPS lost them.

I liked episode 3. The alternative metaphysics propounded by the Coven is an interesting development, not an inconsistency. Their existence is a challenge to Jedi hegemony not unlike that of the Siths. Hopefully their understanding of "the Thread" will be developed more fully than Sith philosophy has been throughout the Star Wars saga.

It's been a while since I engaged with the Star Wars universe. Is Jar Jar still around?

Episode finally reveals the Dark side warrior. The rest of the episode didn't really provide us with a whole lot else. Whoever this new character is it seemed they had quite a bit of power based on that last scene. Disappointed that they killed off what I thought would be a pretty important character in the remaining episodes.
