“My agent said, ‘The only note [from your Andorcallback] was you seemed a little bit nervous. So they want to see you again. Walk in that room with as much confidence as you can; walk in that room like you are the dog’s bollocks,’” Dulau tells THR, quoting her rep’s words. “Then she said, ‘Also, you’ll be reading at Pinewood Studios opposite Stellan Skarsgård, but don’t let that make you nervous.’ I think I just burst out laughing because that’s insane. It was just an unbelievable thing to hear.”

Cassian and Jyn Erso should have heisted an Imperial shuttle craft when they got out of the tower and booked it instead of holding each other on the beach (even more so now that we know Cassian just orphaned his kid and Bix is going to have to work at space hooters).

Yep Cassian takes Jyn back with him to Bix and his whole scene becomes a warlock party.

So here is a question that it wasn't Andor's job to answer, but I don't know if it has been answered definitely anywhere else in the Star Wars universe.  What is the foundation of the relationship between Saw Gerrera and the Urso family?

I just re-watched 10, 11 and 12.  This was off the charts good storytelling.  Next week I am starting a re-watch from Season 1 and the through Rogue 1.  I wouldn't mind a Klaya and Wilmon story line.  Maybe they help the Bothans get the info they need for the 2nd Death Star.

According to Wookiepedia, Saw helped Galen and his family escape Coruscant once he found out what his work was being used for and bought the land they lived on when Krennick shows up on R1

I'd given up on the SW franchise because like Marvel, they were just putting out utter shit. I don't think this series fixes that in any way but hopefully it sets a high bar for follow up shows to at least try to respect.

This series is incredible. I know how R1 starts and ends and I was on the edge of my seat every episode. The vision, writing, and the acting, I don't know enough superlatives to express how fucking awesome they were.

This was a heavy series. Every episode left me burdened with the feels.

Watching Rogue One now. The difference in dialog is a bit jarring. 

Gilroy came in to patch up Gary Whitta's script, and didn't rewrite the whole thing.

Finally watched last night. Not much else to add that hasn’t been said, except that I really liked the juxtaposition of the Andor rebellion of dirty killers (terrorists?) against the plucky Skywalker rebellion. 

If you haven’t watched the final Declassified episode found in the Extras section (and linked up thread) you need to. It’s emotional.

Oh yeah forgot to ask: were the Waif and Qyburn the only two GoT alums? What an incredible pair of shows to be in. 

Especially considering Andor actually stuck the landing on their "catspaw dagger"

No. There were others. In season 1, Chief Hyne, Syril's lazy boss was Yohn Royce, the bannerman of House Arryn. Leida, played one of Vary's little birds. The Spice King played a Senator. Captain Tigo from season 1 had a brief appearance as Rhaegar Targaryen.

Kleya marries Manny Bothans, helps him with the intel then Manny and Wilmon do the job.

Even though we knew where this would end, it was still a fantastic ride.  Kleya having to take out Luthen was not expected and the flashbacks on their relationship were very well done.   I too would like to know more about what was going on when Luthen first meets her.  

It really was a satisfying ending all around.  Deedra, Heert and Partagaz all suffered in their own way (and we know Krennic has it coming in R1).  That scene between Deedra and Luthen in the gallery was superb as was the Deedra/Krennic one.  And that ending.   At first glance, it could have seemed schlocky but knowing that is why Bix left....   Wow.  

I'm not one to rewatch "TV" series but I am going to rewatch this soon.

TLDR: Rebels Season 3 Episode 18 "Secret Cargo" shows Mon's escape from Coruscant to Yavin courtesy of the Ghost. I know Filoni was Gilroy's lighthouse for keeping the story to SW's lore. It's cool that Gilroy kept the continuity between the two shows.

I think the plan is to watch Secret Cargo tonight, and then rewatch S2 E12 and roll it right into Rogue One.

Just re-watched Secret Cargo. Gave me goose bumps.

Andor series gives everything so much more gravity and life. Like ripples in a pond.

Chopper is the best Droid character with K coming in a close second IMO.

Chopper threatened your family if you didn't say that, didn't he? 😉

Most of you already do this but if you don't, watch the various breakdown shows on YT. You'll understand level of diligence that Gilroy and the writers kept to SWs lore and how intertwined the stories are across many seeminly disparate films and series.

This is a good breakdown. There are others.

Episode 10, with stretches of 2 and 3 minutes or longer with zero dialogue (other than the rando guards/troopers' comments) and Kleya just cutting through like a knife through Franklin brisket, is absolutely perfect filmmaking, and added to the immense tension.  Phenomenal.

I mean....

She said it.  Luthen, by wanting to overthrow the Empire, wanted chaos to spread across the galaxy. 

Democracy is chaos.  Freedom is chaos.

Dedra does not like chaos.
