The Best 'Andor' Episode Reveals The Show's Biggest Failing

Back when he first joined the Star Wars saga in Rogue One, Cassian Andor (Diego Luna) was less a character than he was a cipher, a catalyst of the rebellion that would ultimately destroy the Biggest Bad in the Star Wars galaxy. He was just one of the many revolutionaries that history forgot, and though we get a general impression of who he is, he was still sharing the spotlight with Rogue One’s ensemble. Andor was meant to change that, placing its focus squarely on Cassian and exploring the Rebellion through his eyes. There is some of that in the series, especially since Season 2 is speedrunning through the four years leading up to Rogue One and its immediate follow-up, A New Hope. But Andor is arguably more of an ensemble piece than a sole character study: the closer it gets to its conclusion, the less interested it is in Cassian.

Spoilers ahead for Andor Season 2.
