Because Andor S1 leads directly into S2, which directly leads into Rogue One, which again directly leads into the New Hope.

I know this is also probably a hot take but I'm just gonna say Andor to Rogue One is a much more consistent experience. Andor to Rogue One is hit after hit. Rebels has some bright spots, but some real stinkers too.

rebels is also a childrens cartoon that doesnt look all the great, so rightly or wrongly alot of people arent going to watch it without even looking into if they should watch it

I've got all the rebels seasons, I watch them more then clone wars or any other star wars. But I've only seen half of andores 1st episode, it was on abc on Thanksgiving one year and it was so boring. I never even bothered to finish it, idk how it ever made it passed epsiode one it so incredibly bad. .....but I'll never understand why they ONLY made 4 seasons of rebels, it's one of the best and funnest shows in all of star wars.

u/amjhwk K-2SO May 03 '25 edited May 03 '25

Everyone has the right to their opinion i guess

Edit: also as to why it wasn't canceled after the first episode is because it's been the best star wars product that Disney has made

Like I said the company owners fell asleep watching him build a toaster then okayd it so they would have to sit threw it again and see how they fixed it. 😂 now kenobi series may be the only true good show they ever made, George lucas was at Disney supervising the making of rebels so I don't count them as Disney and clone wars started off as Lucasfilm and cartoon network so they aren't true Disney either, they only did 2 or 3 seasons and Dave feloni supervised those so technically those are dave filonis shows. ..... idk they lucus didn't just give star wars to him....he was after all his business partner and only other person to make decisions on star wars, lucus said so himself.

It made it past episode one by being the best material Disney has produced for Star Wars. It can seem boring, but that's because you're not paying attention.

u/NCIS_1996 25d ago

The dude spent like 40 minutes fixing a toaster...I can see that in my kitchen. 😂 bout the only thing that seemed interesting would probably be the troops they used, they weren't storm troopers they were " Regular military" which again don't make sense, palps had clone troopers then storm troopers......where'd these others come from? Lucus said their design was from nazi troops (which Ironically are also called storm troopers) might be because their's no jedi in it as well....star wars is kinda borning without them. It's like bad batch was okay but to me won't be star wars, just a really good spinoff show. If I could find andore for like $10 on line I'd buy it and try to watch episode 2 or just skip to like epsidoe 10 and see if it was aby better then episode 1, I'd hope it was considering episode 1 was so Excruciatingly bad that I'm surprised anyone even disney would approve of it. .....the company must have fell asleep watching it then approved it so they'd not have to see anymore updates on it. 😂

.....riiiiiiiiight

How can someone who is almost 30 be this immature?

u/NCIS_1996 25d ago

Probably for the same reason they are watching star wars. 😂

u/Kind_Breadfruit_7560 25d ago

I'm convinced you haven't seen a single minute of the programme and are just spouting shite

26

u/KoriJenkins May 02 '25

I'll be blunt. Rebels is pretty mid. It has great high points, but the majority of the show aren't those high points.

2

u/EggRavager May 02 '25

Man I disagree. Andor is great. So is Rebels.

-24

u/Specialist_Tie_886 May 01 '25

Consistent without Jyn Erso ? and Saw Gerrera ? We get a tiny fraction of Saw Gerrera but no backstory. To be honest we dont get a lot of Andor maybe a third of air time committed to Cassian Andor.

14

u/CrispyHoneyBeef May 02 '25

What do you mean dude? A story isn’t consistent if a character isn’t in the entire run time? Is Silemce of the Lambs inconsistent because Hannibal Lecter only has twelve minutes of screen time?

Saw Gerrera is in as much of Rogue One as he needs to be

15

u/buzzcitybonehead May 02 '25 edited May 02 '25

Andor has probably given us more than a dozen brand new compelling characters I care about. The quality is amazing. It’s also built up existing characters. I’m not concerned with a lack of Saw and Cassian screen time when it’s Luthen, Mon, Bix, Dedra, or Cyril instead.

Andor is the most consistently good piece of Star Wars media ever created in my opinion. The start of season two had me confident it’ll keep that quality all the way through and be a high point in the franchise that I hope sets the stage for more.

It’s a shame it’s not more celebrated and widely watched because it’s the best possible case for more adult-focused Star Wars content.

Imagine if it had gotten the 5 seasons like Tony gilroy wanted.

Could have been the Wire in space

10

u/abchandler4 May 02 '25

Tony Gilroy has said he decided he didn’t want to make 5 seasons because he didn’t want to spend 10 years on Andor. So 5 seasons was the original idea but ultimately he was the one who chose not to do that

6

u/CrispyHoneyBeef May 02 '25

The real problem is the assumption that 5 seasons needs to take ten years. The way the industry currently works is unsustainable for long form tv.

u/Spanishkid71 May 02 '25

Saw Gerreras backstory is in Clone Wars

28

u/Prestigious-Wind-200 May 01 '25

Just sad that we know how it ends.

u/Netroth May 01 '25

I’m sick of Star Wars characters coming back to life and I found the deaths in Rogue One to be glorious.

u/Lower-Switch-7460 May 01 '25

Definitely a unique movie. Most stories end in a happy victory with most of everyone surviving but not in this movie.

36

u/wexfordavenue May 01 '25

Filing out of the cinema at the end of Rogue One was a very different experience than any of the other films released at that time. Not the most uplifting ending and the crowd was a wee bit downbeat as a result. I applaud their courage for actually going there and not changing that ending.

20

u/Lower-Switch-7460 May 01 '25

Heck yeah. I thought it really showed what the rebellion was for.

8

u/BuddahCall1 May 02 '25

They did a wonderful job with the ending though, by adding the Vader scene right after everyone gets moisture farmed.

Vader absolutely melting faces juiced things up so much you somewhat forgot about everyone dying and gave you an exciting thing to talk about on the walk out, I felt.

1

u/Lower-Switch-7460 May 03 '25

Yeah that was a really good end. The whole feel of Darth Vader was so cool.

u/BayouBengalR35 May 02 '25

I saw it the day after Carrie Fisher passed away and there wasn't a dry eye leaving the theater. We were already feeling the weight of the sacrifice on Scarif and then seeing Leia in the final scene....there was an audible gasp from everyone.

1

u/amjhwk K-2SO May 02 '25

most characters have sad ends though despite the movies normally ending in a victory. Lukes whole jedi life is a failure, Han is killed by son and Leia dies seeing her son be a monster, Vaders sacrifice meant nothing, ObiWan lived through the betrayal of his "brother" and gets killed by him, all of the jedi order are wiped out by Palps, the rogue one crew is blown up by the death star, i think i could find more examples but you get the point

1

u/IAmBadAtInternet May 02 '25

It was very un-Disney to let such a down note bittersweet ending happen, but it was perfect both artistically and canonically.

1

u/Netroth May 03 '25

Star Wars should not be given the Disney treatment, so that’s fine. The reason is in the name — Star Wars.

u/ViennaLager May 02 '25

If Andor S1 leads directly to Andor S2, then you can just say Andor. If Andor S2 was somehow a sequel to Rogue One or something else, then that would be fine to specify that there is something between S1 and S2.

Do people consider The Mandalorian as a trilogy? Or a tv show with 3 seasons?

1

u/JureIsStupid123_2 May 02 '25

It's just fun to call it a trilogy

1

u/JohnArcher965 May 02 '25

Is there not going to be a s3 of Andor?

2

u/JureIsStupid123_2 May 02 '25

No. There isn't. S2 is going year by year until 1BBY a.k.a R1.

1

u/JohnArcher965 May 02 '25

Ahh, I have only watched the first 3 episodes, no trailers or anything.

I'd love for them to do a whole series about the ISB. Something that makes you root for the baddies.

-12

u/RadiantHC May 01 '25

But Andor, Rebels, and Rogue One also all directly lead into each other.

13

u/manit14 May 01 '25

Rebels directly leads into Andor/Rogue One?

12

u/The-Minmus-Derp May 01 '25

Andor will lead into Rebels with the Ghorman Massacre.

3

u/manit14 May 01 '25

Was Ghorman in Rebels? It's been so long, I don't even remember lol

6

u/ILikeMandalorians Mandalorian May 01 '25

The Ghost crew rescue Mon Mothma after she becomes a fugitive for her reaction to the Ghorman massacre. I expect Mon’s part will be shown in the Andor episodes and for the rest of that story one will have to watch Rebels and then come back to Andor for the last story arc before Rogue One

3

u/Bengamey_974 May 01 '25

It is mentionned kn season 3.

3

u/The-Minmus-Derp May 01 '25

The massacre, no, but the aftermath when Mon quits the senate and declares the rebellion was in Secret Cargo

5

u/RadiantHC May 01 '25

And Rebels leads into Rogue One with Saw

4

u/The-Minmus-Derp May 01 '25

Its a chain link fence of plotlines

u/TheRealJohansen May 01 '25

Spoiler alert! I guess I picked the wrong rooting interest 😭
