Q: What do you get when you spin-off an interesting character from Rogue One? One who isn't as "great" as The Mandalorian or Boba Fett?

A: Andor. Cassian is likeable, but the stakes are just not that great, IMHO.

Episode 3 [Reckoning] and Episode 4 [Aldhani] of Andor Star Wars

Andor Episode 1 [Kassa] and Episode 2 [That Would Be Me] Review

This is a heist episode, the previous ones having shown Cassian Andor to be a precious and precocious thief, able to "walk in like you belong."

I am looking forward to how they show the celestial event, Aldhani's Eye.

The actor playing Karn reminds me of Jude Law's character in Gattaca.

The actor playing Skeen, Ebon Moss-Bachrach, was in a chef shit show called The Bear. It had nothing much to do with a bear, or a chef. Meh.

Anyhow, they practice their heist strategy - with a little help from their friend, a traitor from the Imperial perspective, but on the side of "good."

Jakku, the planet at the core of the Skywalker saga starting with Rey, is name-dropped by one of the Imperial bureaucrats working with Dedra. Dedra, by the way, is the Imperial officer who will probably become the face (and/or force) of the Empire's attempt to quash the Rebellion, I feel.

They are portraying her as ambitious but unable to get anywhere; relate.

She is the one noticing a pattern of thefts making up a Ship of Theseus.

On that note, Indian actor Sohum Shah is also a big part of Bihar-based political drama on Sony, Maharani, along with veteran Huma Qureshi.

I guess the heist will be in the next episode. Mon Mothma and her fam are a disgruntled lot, with her husband and daughter acting out at her.

Karn is getting a serious obsession with Cassian Andor; its unhealthy! :D

Swede Stellan Skarsgård's Luthen is anxious about the heist he has set in motion, and we KNOW it is going to NOT go according to plan, BUT our hero and at least a few if not all of his colleagues will make it out.

Rest in next, as Episode 6 will drop next Wednesday. May the Force be With You! If you like Marvel as well, check out my She-Hulk reviews:
