Andor: Try

There are no Jedi or Sith in Andor. Everyone, from the lowest prisoner on Narkina 5 to Senator Mon Mothma, are limited to what the rest of us mere mortals possess. They can only try.

Andor: Make It Worth It

Through one and a half seasons of Andor, the Force has been absent. No Jedi, and no Sith. Instead, Andor has been more interested in how people who have no special powers operate under an authoritarian system consolidating its power.

Andor: One Way Out

Everyone has their own rebellion, sure. But each of those rebellions have their own costs. And dear or not, those costs must be paid.

Andor: The Price of Rebellion

I first saw Mon Mothma in Return of the Jedi, as the calm and stately leader of the Rebel Alliance. Though she’s only in one scene, her calm confidence and clear sense of the cost of war was compelling. She's a favorite character of mine, and her major role in Andor made me excited for the series.

Andor: Cassian Andor, Ferrix

He became a Rebel. That becoming is one of the things Andor is about. Not just how Cassian joined the Rebellion, but how a bunch of disorganized, squabbling groups and individuals who annoy each other became the Rebellion against the Empire.
