Andor

There has been a lot of Star Wars this year, and honestly, not much of it has really clicked with me, especially when it comes to the streaming side of the galaxy far, far away. So this year I took comfort in revisiting Andor, a series that rejuvenated my love of Star Wars just last year, and found it still just gripping and engaging as it was the first around. In fact, being able to sit with the series as this singular entity, instead of having to wait and wonder “are they going to keep getting away with this?” week after week, proved that wow: they really did get away with this. It is an incredible season of television seen as a whole, and being able to appreciate that and examine it more critically beyond the initial shock of my first watch was immensely rewarding. – James Whitbrook
