I'm just confused about what is a testbed for what anymore.

Avenger, X1, V1, Defender, etc.

The Avenger is far larger than I expected. Is Vader's TIE cockpit supposed to be that big in comparison?

The TIE Advanced/x1, Vader's starfighter, is about half the length of the Avenger according to the various sourcebooks, so it's definitely smaller inside. I don't believe the cockpit in Vader's TIE is supposed to be as big as the Avenger's.

I feel the answer is "don't worry about it".

Or perhaps "there were any number of TIE prototypes in development over the course of the Empire's existence, and one doesn't necessarily have to lead directly to or from another".

also of note: they grew a whole crop for the farm scenes and then had to cut and preserve them when the strike happened

I'm still a fan of the Corellian cockpit for the TIE Phantom.

Using Star Wars as a vehicle for a show about the slow creep of fascism is brilliant and terrifying.

Are the usual suspects crying about it being "woke" for addressing illegal immigrant farm workers?

The worst part about Andor being back is that it's going to end and we'll be stuck with whatever slop fest Dave Filoni has planned.

Tony Gilroy: German philosophers have explored state violence in various ways. Max Weber defined the state as a "human community that (successfully) claims the monopoly of the legitimate use of physical force within a given territory"...

Mon Mothma pounding shots and letting the EDM music overtake her is not something I expected to see.
what a fantastic portrayal, and the abrupt cut to black too
I'm glad to see the show doesn't appear to have dropped off in quality from S1

Oh cool I didn't realize they were releasing the rest of the episodes in batches of three. I thought it was just three for the debut week.

And each group of 4 has their own writing and directing team. So it is like 4 connected movies.

They said the same thing about the sequel trilogy and that ended up garbage.

I hope that mistake is not repeated.

This is not at all the same thing at all and a really poor comparison. There is a showrunner in charge, not Kathleen Kennedy who had no clue.

Plus, they did the same thing with season 1 except it was slightly off. It was e1-3, e4-6, e7, e8-10, and then e11-12 continued from e7. The arrest messed it up.

It is also worth noting that the vast majority of TV shows have various writers and directors so bot sure how this is a concern. But they don't usually clump them like this.

So according to Dedra were supposed to believe that she is 18 years old?

One theory I've seen is that she's telling a half-truth: she was raised in a Republic kinder-block (which I'm assuming is Star Wars-ese for "orphanage") but referred to it as Imperial because she believes in the Empire's ideals now.

Because if they were trying to say Imperial kinder-block, as you point out, she could be no older than 18. And considering she's a Lieutenant, I'm assuming she's meant to be early 30s at the youngest (Denise Gough is 45).

Yeah, seems to be what they're officially going with:

"we learn that Dedra grew up in what would later be named an Imperial kinderblock"
