Superficially, Andor looks promising. It has a gritty quality, offering a more adult take on the Star Wars universe.
It has decent actors too and at least for the first three episodes, the woke nonsense, I've come to associate with new Star Wars series, is largely absent.
That said, what takes its place is, well, not a lot. Inertia is substituted for action and a meaningful story. Andor meanders about aimlessly. I was bored by the time I had reached episode two. My other problem is I don't trust the woke ideologues wont show their ugly heads, as soon as they think they have me roped in.
Well, thankfully, it's not a risk I need take. I wont be watching this series. My time matters to me and spending it waiting incessantly for something to happen, isn't my idea of enjoyment.
In summary, could have worked if it had a functional story and at least, a modest measure of action to move things along. Instead, it feels like a slow, uninspired, space soap opera, where "drama" is somehow supposed to carry the day, in what is a sci fi action adventure franchise.
