Ever Been to Ghorman?

Mmmmmm... very, very slow episode........ This episode, is a bit of a change from the Andor series we've come to know... There seems to be more and more aliens from the Star War world... I thought this series was kind of keeping them aliens out of this series but looks like they had no choice but to include them.... But anyway things are hotting up on Ghorman.... Syril Karn... is rethinking his situation and where his loyalties lie!

MonMotha is also in a bit of a pickle but we all know where that's heading!

Is the alien language more like French?

But anyway this episode is rather slow but we can see the lay out !

Greetings from Lithuania.

"Ever Been to Ghorman?", a 4th episode of "Andor" Season 2 was a very good in setting up the story. Writing is very good here, as well as acting, directing, and exceptional set design. The way this show looks is off the charts great. Its a real, lived in world. When I'm watching Andor, i need to remind myself every 15 min. Or so that I'm watching a Star Wars series, because it sounds, plays, looks like no Star Wars before - in a great way. You do feel just how powerful the Empire is here like in no other instalments before.

Overall, this was a great episode in storytelling and world building.

The underlying malice of the Empire is expertly weaved into this episode without a stormtrooper in sight.

Every conversation has weight and you can feel the desperation of all of the disparate Rebel factions - from Mons efforts to persuade her Senate colleagues to set aside their fear through to Luthen clawing at the elevator door asking for more.

Anton Lesser steals every scene he is in playing Major Partagaz, the gentle hand on the back of the chair the perfect summation of his role in the Imperial machine.

All of the previous decade of dirge Disney made us sit through was worth it just to get this show.

This episode wasn't packed with action, but it delivered strong character development and world-building.

Bix comes across as more compelling here, even though she feels like a victim of circumstance. We also get a deeper look into the lives of these spies and rebels, who are trying to adapt to life in new cities while carrying the psychological weight of their past experiences, and being focused on their compartmentalized missions.

Throughout the episode, we see different rebel factions attempting to resist the Empire-some more organized than others. The political corridors are increasingly frustrating and ineffective, pacifists are being pushed to act, and extremists are becoming dangerously unpredictable.

The set design really stands out-especially the Ghorman capital, with its stunning and distinct architecture that sets it apart from other planets.

Overall, this episode shines through its character focus. The members of the Ghorman Front are particularly well written, and their French-inspired language adds a believable layer of cultural depth.

Don't get fooled. This is one of the best Andor episodes and an incredible piece of television.

This is not slow. This is perfection.

One of the darkest stories in SW universe. An astonishing storytelling with a great amount of details that keeps you interested in without breathing.

The spy game here is mindblowing, the acting is superb, the dark and full of tension atmosphere is thrilling.

The visuals, the sets, the props, the costumes, the photography and cinematography, the characters, the music... all in this episode is just perfection.

And is just the first of the second arc.........
