Andor Season 1: What Did You Think?

Last Updated on November 28, 2022

The Disney+ Star Wars series Andor just had its finale, and now the season can be viewed as a whole. The show, which served as a prequel to the 2016 Star Wars spin-off, Rogue One: A Star Wars Story, received a 93% on Rotten Tomatoes as well as an 83% audience score. Fans and critics alike praised the show for being unique to the franchise without having to rely on nostalgia and fan service to tell a self-contained story.

According to metrics, the show trailed behind other Star Wars series, such as The Mandolorian, according to the Nielson’s streaming ratings. The viewership, although lacking, still garnered enough to earn the series into the top 10 most-watched streaming shows during its entire run. The lackluster numbers are likely why Disney is giving the show an extra push by making episodes available on broadcast television that can be viewed by non-subscribers.

For those who are interested, the first two episodes of Andor are set to air on the following channels:

ABC:  Wednesday November 23,  9-10:30 pm ET/PT

FX:  Thursday, November 24, 9-10:30 pm ET/PT

Freeform:  Friday, November 25, 9-10:30 pm ET/PT

Hulu:  Available from November 23 through December 7
