Yeah, I think that's the appropriate PG rating. Have fun watching the show together tonight!

Ah, my daughter is 16. I figure she can handle it.

You're a lucky man Tamer.

I wasn't overly impressed.

It was neither good, nor bad, just kind of "there".

The plot(s) moved at a glacial pace and the majority of characters we are introduced to are paper thin.

I do like the practical sets and the look at the galaxy from a working man's perspective. Plus, the actress that plays Bix is gorgeous!

Thanks Ron, I think so too.

As for Andor I got the first episode in last night. I am kinda with Dan. It is Star Wars, but I haven't been wowed one way or the other yet. I will keep watching. I agree on the glacial pace of the plot though.

I'm half way through the 2nd episode. "YAWN" The show is good, has a nice StarWarsy feel to it but as has been mentioned before, IT'S MOVING SO SLOOOOOOOWWWWWWWW. The ice age moved faster than this.
Nice to see Cassian as a stone cold killer.
Plus I thought the alien version of Luca Brasi was impressive.
I'm sure it will get better. Just not fast enough for me.
I miss the days of George Lucas when every episode started off fast, exciting and explosive.

Finally able to watch the second half of episode 3.
NOW THAT'S MORE LIKE IT!!!!
Explosions, sabotage, freedom fighters, hero's, heroines and heroics.
Finally starting to feel a little of the StarWars of old.
The ending was a nice touch tying together Cassian's past with his current life.
Also we see the history of Imperial secret service/security. Once again they don't know their enemy, run into a battle zone with no understanding of the terrain or environment, and they are so arrogant and pompous that their total lack of battle tactics and experience ultimately leads to there demise.

Well I am all caught up. Sigh.

It was good to see some TIE Fighters and the one speeder bike. I will be ok once I start seeing some Imperial Troopers and vehicles and what not.

Episode 5 is in the books.
Not much action but a lot of personality conflicts and machoism.
Felt like I was back in my classroom watching the butthead students throwing around their "toughness."
Or what they bare actually showing their "pussyness."
Gotta start having some action and soon. The character building is fine but it's time for some good old
fashioned Star Wars shootem up, blowem up and ass kickin!!!
The one thing that keeps rolling around in my noggin is this. Which one of the "good guys" is going to turn out to
be the traitor? Who will Andor end up battling for supremacy of the rebellion??

I don't know, maybe I am never satisfied. I just feel like I am waiting for the new season of the Mandalorian.

This just kind of feels like a sitcom played out in a SW Verse.

Finally had the chance to watch the last two episodes. Not a lot to comment on.
I hope this sophomoric, low brow, can't figure out where the show is heading feldergarb
is leading up to something spectacular. ( I have serious doubts given it's dudsney)
The episodes are enjoyable to a certain point however I just can't see what Andor
being in prison has anything to do with his rising in the ranks of the Rebellion.
Plus I see this as the big dudsney flaw with this show.
Cassian Andor is being hunted by the Galactic Empre. His image is broadcast across
the entire galaxy.
He gets arrested and gives a false name.
His supposed crimes are put into the Imperial database AS WELL AS HIS PICTURE/
IMAGE/PHOTO!
How can it possibly be that the Empire does not have their security system integrated
with all other Imperial systems yet his image has not been flagged and he has not been
extradited to the city where he is charged with committing murder?
