r/andor

I definitely feel like Vel brought her wealthy senator cousin into the rebellion, maybe even by design from Luthen himself. If she was being used to get Mothma in she likely knew and didn't care.

One of my favorite bits of behind-the-scenes trivia of the show is in this interview with Tom Bissell, writer of episodes 2-10, 2-11, and 2-12. Bissell wrote the long fade out on the dying Luthen at the end of Episode 10. But when Tony Gilroy re-wrote the script, he added a single line to that ending: "Respect must be paid."

Is it just me, or is the pattern Kleya uses to signal for extraction in S2E11 the exact same rhythm as the warning the citizens of Ferrix use in S1E3? Is that why Luthen chose it to signal Wilmon and Cass?

It's a shame that the 2nd season of Andor feels a bit rushed with the time skips but I understand why as actors inevitably age and TV production schedules in the age of streaming are different from what they used to be like.

If Andor had 3 seasons in total how would you write it with the time between season 1 and Rogue One being more spread out? I'd resolve the story arc of Andor looking for his sister. I'd also feature more aliens; maybe have some human-alien hybrids. I'd include some rebels who were former Separatists as I think there's some potential there, especially if you have them forced to team up with rebels who fought for the Republic in the clone wars. I'd also significantly cut down on that story arc where Andor's stuck on that jungle planet with the Star Wars equivalent to the Judean's people front. I know that real life extremists or rebels or whatever you want to call them are prone to infighting but it really dragged on.

Obviously, we know Lonnie and what happened to him in Andor. but Luther holds his cards close in every interaction. do you think he others planted in the ISB or in the rebel sects?

In 2x4, 5, and 6, we see Syril in deep cover with the Ghorman Front- he's playing an Imperial middle manager with Ghorman sympathies, whose sympathies extend to slipping them Imperial data. But by 2x8, the Front seem to have discovered his deception and he's well in their bad books- as they march to Palmo plaza he has two bad run ins with the Rylanzes which would seem to imply that something unfolded before that.

What do you think happened in between?

I was so pumped she was willing to watch and loved it.

Watching it again a second time was better than the first.

I caught more of the nuance.

It’s feels so prescient and relevant to the world we live today.

This might be my favorite show.
