Star Wars: Andor's first three episodes are already available and showrunner Tony ("Toe pick!") Gilroy set a high bar for shows in a galaxy far, far away. The dialogue is terrific and the acting has complimented it and the camera work and direction haven't gotten in the way. Will it be the best show from LucasFilm on Disney Plus? It's got a shot and that's saying something.


Syril Karn and Timm Karlo could have been buddies in a different life. Maybe even closer than that, like mortal enemies? Instead Karn launches his offensive on the citizens of Ferrix, but maybe he should have listened a little closer to that analyst that warned him things don't always operate the way PreOx Morlana thinks it should on paper...or, um, data terminal. Luthen tests Cassian, Maarva learns to let go, Bix loses her sleepover buddy, and the townspeople band together in a jam session that is very metal.


Episode 4 will start a new story arc next week, but from here on out, we're only getting one part a week until November. Was the binge of the first three your preference or will you enjoy the slow burn of weekly episodic Star Wars streaming? Let us know what you think!
