This review ofAndorseason 2 containsnospoilers.
A show likeAndorin times like these feels like such a breath of fresh air.
Its a soul-stirring story about love, loss, and fighting against impossible odds.
Its whatStar Warsshould be about above all else, not nostalgic cash grabs for the sake of nostalgia.
All of this to say that the performances this season are exceptional.
There are times when I wishAndorhad more time to let some of the heavier moments breathe.
This season occasionally moves a bit too fast for its own good.
This version of the galaxy feels so lived-in and real.
There may be aliens and planets far, far away, but the story is human above all else.
For all of the tragedy we see in season 2, there is still hope in equal measure.
Rebellions are built on hope, after all, and thats somethingAndordoesnt let us forget.
Hope and heart are the lifeblood ofAndorand fuel the action-packed season ahead.
Andorseason 2 is even more timely than series creator Tony Gilroy and the other writers likely intended.
The first three episodes of Andor season 2 premiere Tuesday, April 22 at 9 p.m. Three new episodes debut per week, culminating with the finale on May 13.
