One of these characters is Cassian Andor, a thief who becomes a revolutionary and eventually joins the Rebellion. |

I wonder if I can steam this series on Prime Video. I tried to find a way to watch Disney+ on my TV and get the audio to go through my big beloved old sound system, but I struck out.
Oh well, I'll find a way eventually. Thanks for starting a thread on it, Ralfy.

| It's slow for the first two episodes, but get better after. There's something wrong with the way the subplots are weaved, and some of them don't look necessary. I think they could have tightened the storytelling to improve on the pacing, but overall still better than Obi Wan, Halo, and the rest. |

Brother, you've got that right! I'm 2 episodes in and it's like watching paint dry. Particularly unattractive paint. That lets off too many VOCs.
I imagine it's another case of they had 8-10 episodes of story and they had to pad it out to 12 so Disney had more of the precious "content".

So, apparently, every third episode is well-paced and holds my interest. So I'll stick with my original assessment that they had 8 episodes of material and had to pad it out to 12.
