The best of the Live Action Star Wars series
OK. I love The Mandalorian. I also really enjoyed Boba Fett and Ashoka. All quite enjoyable and well done. I liked Skeleton Crew, which was a bit more light-hearted. The Acolyte... well, they can't all be winners (See Star Trek: Discovery, Picard and nearly half of Strange new Worlds. Hey, star trek, stop copying Star Wars and stop with the unnecessary prequels). All these series pale in the face of Andor. Tremendous writing, tremendous stories, fantastic cast. Diego Luna is brilliant as Andor, who really does everything he can for the Rebellion. Luthen and Kleya deserve at least a movie of their own. Andor is right when he tells the rebel council that they don't understand the debt they owe to Luthen, who, for the first time in any star wars we see PTSD. (Leia should really suffer from this as well, since she saw her planet blown up!) Each episode is a masterwork of writing and directing. There isn't a bad episode in the bunch. A joy to watch and my wife and I have watched the entire run several times. Just a brilliant show. More, Mr. Gilroy! More!
