Well, it took SIX episodes, but finally got to the actual heist portion of Andor. Be like if we didn't get to the casino in Ocean's 11 until 90 minutes in.
MJ, wait until it takes a left turn. For three more episodes you be stuck again.
BTW, how many episodes comprises the season for this? I thought episodes 10 was the high note for the season, but then it comes back down at 11.

Choked down the last two episodes tonight, like asparagus.
If this is "Star Wars for adults", stick a pacifier in my mouth. Boring. As. HELL.
All of the slowest galacti-politics of the PHANTOM MENACE on steroids here - that's the best I can frame it. I'm not saying it's horrible, but in today's ADD culture a Star Wars story with subdued action reads like a Township Council meeting broadcast on the local shared cable access channel.
Wish I knew (or care) who these f****n people are. They don't pay my bills. I'm sorry, unless you've figured out how to monetize every aspect of your life, then what a waste of time creating an online "journal" for yourself.
It’s just breathtakingly ironic that someone giving me sh!t for my job and lack of sexual experience is using language that would make a sullen fourteen-year-old wince and go, “Dude, grow up.”

It is ironic, but you live the way you want to. He doesn't know you, pay your bills, or care about your future. For all you know, he could be a highly evolved AI bot. So, take it with a grain of salt.

And by all accounts not one of the better-viewed of those series, appealing more to adults.
Still have never watched it!
Whenever I talk about how boring and uneventful the show was on Twitter, I get battered around as being an "idiot" for not seeing how this is "The best Star Wars anything since Empire...!" I'm sorry, but if a Star Wars show can't be enjoyed by a ten-year-old, it's not fulfilling its primary function as zippy, escapist pulp. It's as bad as taking the James Bond series and turning it into a mopey, humorless soap opera during the Craig run that ended with a teary-eyed 007 muttering the words "I love you" before getting obliterated by a thousand missiles. That's not what the fanbase wants!
