See the uncut reaction for Andor on Patreon → bit.ly/patreon_reforged

The subtle thing of Mon going "smile" every now and then, oooh - chef's kiss

Cassian told Skeen he had served in juvenile detention so I think that flashback was hinting at the event that put him there. Fantastic reaction; this episode was some of the best Star Wars live action I've seen.

The kid on the flash back is young Andor. You see Diego in the flashback is because he is inserting himself into it.

"I show you the stone in my hand you miss the knife at your throat" awesome writing

With how EXTREMELY intense the ISB scenes are and because of how especially selective they are with their very particular choice of words, I love how it ended with an exchange that was exceptionally terse and overtly direct: _"Well played." "Thank you, sir." "Watch your back."_

the fact that Luthins "shop helper" threw us all off with her new look shows how much they paid attention to how a spy can change the way they look in masterful ways

When we see Cassians face clearly in the Clone Trooper flashback, its current day Cassian reliving it. If you look closely at any shot were its not a close up of his face, you can see its a much much younger version if him. Different hair, baby cheeks. The young Cassian charging the troopers in the snow was a later retaliation for Clem's death.

Syril "two men dead... not counting the ones I got killed by overstepping my ability"

I love how Luthen's assistant completely changed her look for that talk with Vel. That's real spy shit right there.

Andor is pure gold.

Fiona Shaw and Genevieve O’Reilly stole the show this week. They’ve been consistently good the whole time but that goodbye scene with Marva was just so heart wrenching and the coded discussion at the party with Tay was so tense and gripping, especially considering that it was just two people walking through a space. I’m so in love with this show

That's Colonel Yularen from the Clone Wars, Rebels and A New Hope (uncredited cameo)

I, too, was slightly confused by the flashback initially but upon rewatching it I realized it was a clever direction by Benjamin Caron, because by inserting present Cassian into the flashback (with Clem repeating his same hand-on-shoulder motion onto past Cassian), we may deduce that this is not him remembering but reliving that moment; those marching footsteps were not a reminder but a trigger.

By the end of this series, Cyril will be eating cereal and his mother will be encased in carbonite above the mantle. 😁

I think that Andor will be one of those shows that is not popular when it first comes out but will become a must see show later

This is not the bottom rung... it's freaking Mon Mothma, Imperial Senator and the future leader of Alliance and later Chancellor of the New Republic. This is about as top-level as we can get, and I love it!

during that flashback scene we see first Diego Luna's face then once the camera changes to side view it's a kid, the same kid who was charging towards the clone troopers. That man who was trying to stop the locals from throwing rocks at the clone troopers was his dad, Clem Andor. I see now why Cassian chose Clem as his codename

Both trapped in prisons of their own making. Cassian ran in the hope of being free of the Empire, and in the end he got arrested for it. Meanwhile, Syril ends up a literal worker drone, trapped away from his goals the outcome of all his actions.

I was so hungry for good dialog in Star Wars and I can't believe we got it!

Did we just get 'Star Wars Florida' in this show? Kudos to Tony Gilroy for making the world actually feel big! 6:24; even with some VFX augmentation, hard not to instantly recognise the brutalist architecture of the Barbican Centre & Estate in London that the show uses as one of its locations! The show clearly has really good & creative location scouts particularly around the UK!

This is the show I've been wanting for a very long time. Somehow, I still can't believe it was made.

Honestly I just really love hearing people in English accents say words like "Rebellion" and "Rebels"

I'm always surprised when people don't recognize the side characters immediately-- but I do tend to memorize face a lot. Kleya & Vel look great though, don't they? :D Planet Miami is awesome, although I wouldn't wanna get caught jaywalking there. Can't talk about Cassian and Maarva, makes me wanna cry... [Yeah, that was young Cassian. Remember, he has a record for attacking a stormtrooper already. That's the incident. Gahh. *hugs him*]

Genevieve O’Reilly is KILLING it in this show, love her!! ❤ Also: Niamos Vice! 🌴

While the empire are clearly on the "Bad Side" , i love how the rebellion here is also made of morally grey characters or intentions...not just do gooders or martyr...you have people like Luthen and his different vision with Mon Mothma...and of course even more extreme once Saw Guerrera comes into play

Personally, I thought Cassian’s mom was mvp. She had me in tears.

I feel as if ANDOR is the first Star Wars property to me outside of maybe Clone Wars, where I get a good sense of the actual lived-in universe. So many of the films or series, even though they're always planet-hopping, still feel like they're in a bubble for some reason. Seeing the news reports, and just the different worlds besides desert planets all the time, really helps. I love it.

Mon's convo with her old friend Tay Kolma was so eff'ing epic and tense...the music in the background heightened it all

‪I find it peculiar that a nearly identical quote comes from Luthen and Deedra in this episode: “it either changes/grows or it dies.” That can’t be a coincidence.‬ Also, after Deedra says this, the next scene is Luthen listening to intercepted communications about ISB efforts.

It is such an excellent show ... and something I think deserves extra mentions: the casting is outstanding. I love how all characters get time to breathe and the slow reveals of all the complex emotions and relationships. But it works so incredibly well because the actors seem so into their characters. And what a stunning performance of Fiona Shaw in this episode☺ ... and no one discusses the real question of crucial importance: who is Syrril's uncle🤐😵

When Agustin said “WTF is that?” about that creature in space Miami and Adam started laughing, I literally choked on my beer!

I love how you guys keep getting surprised by episodes ending without tying neat little bows around the story. 😂 Great reaction! What a show.

I never knew I needed a laughing Ant eater in Star Wars until I seen it. Cracked me up!

the writing of the show just keeps getting better and better.

The Mon Mothra party scene is one of the best acted and best written scenes period. This shit is sooooo good.

Tony Gilroy said Ep 7 is an 'insterstitial episode'. The next two arcs will be in Episode 8-10 and Episode 11-12. Expecting a time jump in the next episode...

Tonight on Niamos Vice... "Cassian gets the boss a coffee!" Love this show

I love this type of Star Wars, I wish everyone would give it a chance and just watch it for what it is. They would know how good it is and how this connecting more of the star wars universe

It wasn't until this reaction that I realized he said "partisan activities" and not "parties and activities." lol

A friend of mine says that "This is Star Wars for Grown-ups." And I have to agree. My siblings and my older nieces and nephews all love this show. But my kids, and the younger nieces and nephews are just waiting for the next season of The Mandalorian. But MAN-O-MAN!!!!! I LOVE THIS SHOW!!!! Everything about this show is on a whole new level! AWESOME!!! When the whole season is done, I'm gonna sit down and watch it all in one shot!!

I love all the characters in this show, even the "bad" ones. But I absolutely fell in love with Maarva in this episode.

This is by far one of the best written and performed shows & series I have watched in a long time.

Thanks, Adam! Thanks, Hector! Thanks, Agustin! 🕫 Tony Gilroy announced that the format is changing. This one, Episode 7, is meant to be an entr'acte. Episodes 8, 9 and 10 will be an arc. Episodes 11 and 12 will be a two-part finale. Season 2 is meant to make more time jumps, but we'll see if it has a familiar structure. #HeroesReforged #StarWars #Andor #DisneyPlus

It's not an airport. It's Mclarens F1 headoffice

MY FAVOURITE LINE IN THIS EPISODE IS WIPE THAT SMILE OF YOUR FACE

This episode has more display of the most sparklingly brilliant dialog of anything I've ever seen.

20:29 haven't seen Adam die like that in a minute

At the 20:30 mark. Agustin saying “what the Fuck is that thing?” Was my thoughts exactly when I saw that scene and Adam laughing his ass off was my same reaction when Agustin said that 😂. I nearly spat out my coffee.

“And I need to kiss you”….almost spit my water out on that one!

I read somewhere that episode 8-10 are the next arc, so I wonder if the time jump will be happening soon... but I don't see it being more than a year or so. I also am beginning to theorize that Vel will be coming after Cassian to kill him, BUT since we didn't actually see Cinta escape, I wonder if she'll recruit Cassian to help her rescue Cinta (assuming that Cinta doesn't make it off of Aldhani and gets captured), and then the two of them will break Cassian out of prison, posing as an imperial officer (since we know that Vel is proficient in espionage) and that's where Cassian will reprogram K2.

Such an amazing show. I'm really loving it.

7 is an interim episode as per the show writers, 8,9,10 are the next set and 11, 12 are the 2 part season finale

My theory is K2SO is the red robot with a upgraded battery

That last part had 'The Beach' vibes 😂 Also the Shore Trooper was voiced by Sam Witwer aka StarKiller

Andor is Star Wars for adults. Finally.

Any show that can elicit a straight-up “fascinating” from reactors is doing something right.

As exciting as all of the action and pomp was in Episode 6, I've never been more excited watching Star Wars than I was during Mon's discussion with her old friend form Chandrilar. The interpersonal "action" in this show is just so effing good. Edit: AND the conversation between Cassian and Marva, AND the ISB scenes, AND etc etc.

I think Maarva is the one who told Luthen about Cassian. I think Luthen’s a contact of hers from way back - from the work she was doing with Clem. I think she very well knows Cassian was part of what happened on Aldhani.

This was by far my favorite episode, but the ending felt like it was just cut off randomly. Weird. But yeah, the bit in the Imperial meeting was great. I think Meero is a super interesting character, and very well-played.

What a twist at the end. Cassian is in the Heist, makes it work, evades the Imperials, gets away clean. Then gets arrested for being a tourist, SMH

The show was edited in such a way that it gets better and better in each rewatch.

I really hope we find out that uncle Harlo is Mel Brooks!!!

What if the prison Andor is being sent to is the same prison as the Bridgers are in, timeline fits perfectly

Love the way Partagaz calls Meera by her first name .. she's the only one it seems .. Dedra walk with me.. in front of everyone!

you know what i love about new Star Wars shows? there are cool little threads that help strengthen the main mythology so well! i keep going back to "Star Wars: From A Certain Point Of View" [novel/audiobook], there's a story with Mon Motha pondering different futures just before the destruction of the Death Star. reading that and watching her start the process here - gold! i'm loving ... LOVING Andor!

Good to see Yularen again

If it's got low viewership it's because much of the modern Star Wars audience hasn't got the patience to allow the show to breathe and develop. All they seem to want is non stop blaster fire, Lightsaber battles, call backs, legacy character cameos and familiar themes. I love the fact that this show feels lived in, dirty and desperate at times. It's really well acted, the writing is great and it's taking it's time. Not everything is about instant pay offs! More more more please

I can only watch this show with you guys because of your take and response of this show. Much Thanks.

Feels like Luthen and Saw are seeing this from the same perspective: it's war, it will get bloody, there will be collateral damage, and that has be understood, if not accepted.

No one ever writes a movie script going, "Let's reference 30 characters that we will never see, but will use down the line."

With Andor headed to jail, the manifesto may have a different journey- after all, prisons aren't well known for letting people keep their personal belongings

I love when Star Wars introduces the audience to new planets, new landscapes and new alien species. That's part of their charm. I'd love to vacation in Niamos 😎.

Every time they say “schedule” or “reschedule” all I think of are these videos lmao

I just realized Vel is the Faceless Man’s disciple that Arya killed in Game of Thrones 😅🤯

the little droid with cassian moms will be in future k-2so personality

This show, to me at least, is making it more difficult to appreciate other shows. The dialogue and how it acted is so good. The visuals are so good. This is the foundation that makes all the other more mystic or fantasy elements of Star Wars matter. Beautifully, brilliantly done. I thought that in Rogue One Cassein said that he was part of the rebellion since he was a little kid. I feel the next episode is likely where he learns to believe that. I think jail is where he will just have nothing else to do but spend time reading and comtemplating life, so I think he'll definitely read the manefesto. I think while he is there his adoptive mother will have done something to get herself killed. I also think he may start a friendship with a droid. In Solo the movie, and maybe elsewhere in the more current Star Wars, droids seem to be an underclass and oppressed "species" who are beginning to care about how they are treated. I wouldn't be surprised if one of the droids tasked to guard him was not reprogrammed but was given instructions or conflicting tasks that permitted it to justify self agency and ultimately work to help Cassein escape.

Did you guys just omit the awesome intro to Niamos with the music? Damn I was waiting for that.

"What is Love..." Me: Baby don't hurt me.

That’s Luthen’s assistant

It really sucks that this is getting low viewership. This has to be one of, if not the best Star Wars show put out by Disney plus. I love seeing the usual big cinematic stuff the franchise is known for, but the boots on the ground perspective that this show delves in just adds a whole level of depth and sophistication that feels refreshing and very mature.

This was my favorite episode. Definitely.

The way you guys underestimate everything is hilarious. Love watching you guys.

i like the last scene with the guillotine sound like it feels like death the new job hes got lol

6:34 it is filmed in the f1 mclaren office

as a random - the more i watch star wars shows or read a novel, the more i believe that if the empire had been awake - so to speak - they might've gotten a better hold on things. there are people like Supervisor Meero who could have a tighter hold on the galaxy but with everyone being so over-confident about the stronghold of the empire [especially when the death star gets commissioned], a small, hopeful rebellion gets overlooked and could flourish

15:56 that kid is cassian.

Yes - the tension in that boardroom, Mon Motha, Marvva ugh - 7 episodes in and I've yet to be disappointed. Also, how the score on SW Miami is sick!

Damn. A lot of people seem not to recognize lutchens assistant at first glance with her “new” look. I recognized her instantly

At 15:00, Hector said “this show makes you hate Stormtroopers.” I agree. But what show or movie doesn’t.

I liked the Security Officer turned Data Cruncher guy at the office desk. I feel bad for him because he is just trying to do the right thing and chase a murder suspect, even though the murder suspect is the good guy. I hope he defects from the empire and joins rebellion

The spy sections were filmed at the Barbican complex in London!

Polite maliciousness 😂 Great episode.

Seriously, Andor is a tv series I never thought I really needed. It is so well written, executed, with a great cast and pacing. I love this spy thriller format and it works so so well without Jedi or Sith. Feels so fresh and elevating to see this in the star wars universe!

So Cassian is arrested, leaving that lady back in his room with a box full of Imperial credits, a blaster and The Manifesto. She doesn't strike me as the type who's going to use that money to spring him. She is GONE and his entire take from that deal on Aldahni is gone with her. He's back to having nothing. It'll be very interesting to see what happens with the contents of that box.

Your forgetting he has hit put out on him. With him being in prison it protect him from both the rebellion and Empire for the time being.

I think this is where we see that water planet with the giant hexagons that Luthen is looking at in the trailer, and the underground facility where everyone is running through the passageways

I LOVE the performances from the scene between Cassian Andor and Marva before he leaves her, the scene between the Imperials at their meeting, and the scene with Cassian, that shoretrooper, and the Imperial security droid! Those moments are so intense! The last one I mention is so accurate to so many real-life situations between innocent citizens and police officers.

The chalk mark on the floor at 06:35 is the Andor Logo. Watch it again.

This series is making me love Mon Mothma more. She wasn’t just a rebel bureaucrat. She’s in as much danger as everyone else
