Star Wars fans are preparing to return to a galaxy far, far away with the arrival of the franchise's latest TV series. Andor, a prequel to Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, is releasing three episodes on Disney+ on September 21st. On Thursday night, the social media embargo for the series lifted, allowing members of the press who screened the show early to share their thoughts with others online.
Everyone is making it clear that this isn't the Star Wars that we've come to expect on Disney+, but that's a big reason why they seem to love it so much.Powerful Work I’m absolutely blown away by the audacity of #ANDOR. We often have to say “Star Wars has always been political” to counter people who would deny that fact. Well this show is actively angry at the people denying it. Audacious, timely, raw, & exceedingly thoughtful. Powerful work.

The first three episodes should've been presented as one 90-minute episode. The breaks between are very random – but it's a great episode!
