This looks like it'll be Mando level awesome.  High expectations for this series...

This trailer is making it impossible for me to keep my expectations at a moderate level. Damn, that was good.

I'm beyond excited for this. And I'm really happy to see Genevieve O'Reilly returning as Mon Mothma, and expanding into a bigger role. I think she's done such a great job of taking a very wooden throwaway character and expanding her into a very convincing rebel leader.

It actually wouldn't break my heart if they swapped her into ROTJ (I know, blasphemy). The acting in the rebel briefing scene sticks out like a sore thumb every time I watch it...she's staring at Admiral Ackbar as if this is the first time she's ever seen an alien of any sort, and completely ignoring the briefing. Go ahead and check it out, you'll never unsee it. Just watch her face during the whole scene...even after the death star explodes on the hologram.

I see someone in a longing gaze. Unrequited love?   :P

Wow, you are right, Never noticed that before. Maybe I was too focused on Ackbar myself whenever I watched that scene.

She messed it all up on the first date.

Echoing the Andor love... I CAN'T wait for this series. From the trailers it really seems like this could be the TV series I've always been wanting, OT era but with only minor characters from the Skywalker Saga. I have really, really high hopes for what this can become. That admittedly makes me a bit nervous, but I have a very good feeling that this series will live up to that expectation.

Is this on the Web, YouTube, or on Disney+? 

Just got done watching the new behind the scenes Obi-Wan special on Disney+.  I'm ready for more Star Wars via Andor.

I watched the sneak preview on Disney+ last night.  Was it only offered for Disney+ Day?

I just watched it, so it is still there.

The bulk of it was the same thing they played with Rogue One in the IMAX release a few weeks ago, but the trailer bit at the end was different (at the theater it was the regular release trailer that played after the extended clip.) Also there seemed to be more to the interview with Tony and Diego in this version.

So excited for grown-up Star Wars!

A new "payoff" poster was released by Disney today.  I'm looking forward to watching this later tonight.

Watched the first episode over lunch today; going to watch episodes 2 and 3 later tonight. 

I like what I have seen so far though - B2EMO was different than I was expecting!

Hot take: Andor is the Star Wars content I have been waiting for since I saw the Lord of the Rings films and realized we could lean into the more grown-up side of these franchises.

I am so happy after these first 3 episodes. More in depth later, once we are past the spoiler buffer.

I really enjoyed the first three episodes.  The story is intriguing, the music is very complimentary to the story.  I think we're going to enjoy this ride!
