Board 8 > Can you watch Andor without seeing any of the other SW TV shows?

(+) Yeah! (+)

Title

Yes

To clarify, there is basically ONE character in Andor who gets time in other shows, and the shows he gets time in are Rebels and Clone Wars.

You don't need to know who he is though when watching Andor, and you probably remember him if you saw Rogue One.

Ive seen Rogue One but would probably forget anyways, my memory sucks.

good to know though!

Im about to run out of American horror story and need a new series

I can give you loads of suggestions for this year, but if you like Star Wars, then Andor is a really good watch. Even if you're one of those people that gets their knickers in a twist about Star Wars, you'd probably still like it.

Andor is basically Star Wars for people who aren't fans of Star Wars (and people who are, too, but yeah)

I would disagree with that and say that Andor is Star Wars for people whose favourite Star Wars films are A New Hope and Rogue One.

Im a pretty casual Star Wars enjoyer. Seen all the movies, played Battlefront, loved pod racer.

I like hearing that its a good show if I liked Rogue One since ngl its my favorite of the movies.

Han what are some other suggestions you might have?

It depends on the kind of show you're looking for.

Comedy
Action
Sci-Fi
Thriller
Dramatized sports bio
People yelling at each other

I mean, my number one show for the year is Sandman, so I will signal boost that first and foremost, but there's plenty of other good things this year.

More into Action/Thrillers and adult comedies. Sandman was excellent.

not looking for sports, documentaries, etc. the more escapist the better

Andor is a spy thriller, so it should be up your alley

Severance is the thriller pick of the year. Amazing Stephen King-esque story brought to you from the mind of Ben Stiller.

Our Flag Means Death is a really clever and meaningful show from Taika Waititi.

I also really liked watching the Orville, and the third season of that came out earlier this year, which was fantastic.

If Severance is on Prime I prob cant watch it, I just cancelled my Prime for Disney+.

I hadnt thought about OFMD because pirates arent usually my jam but I love Taika.

The Orville seems like a good suggestion, Ive got a Seth McFarlane-esque sense of humour in that I still enjoy Family Guy and American Dad.

Tangentially related to the Orville, you should watch Avenue 5 if you havent.

Severance is on Apple+ and worth finding a way to watch, it's great

Is that the final season?

It may not be the final season; Seth really wants to do another season.

But if it is a final season, it's very satisfying.

Would love a large list of your favorites. I try to keep a running list of stuff to watch and am very behind but might as well add to it

yes

Disney+ literally has a feature that forces you to watch The Mandalorian first

I get all of my suggestions from Scarlet anyway.

The McFarlane-style humor is in the first season, but sort of dies out as he stops forcing it and just writes a really good sci-fi show.
