    Episode 2.01!!
    -------------------------------------

    Discussion of New Episodes - Rules
    (1) One of the mods will post each week's episode thread a day or two before it airs on Disney+.

    (2) Official episode commentary may be posted in this episode thread.

    (3) Discussion in the actual episode thread will be limited to that specific episode, NOT future episodes; past episodes may be referenced. Speculation based on released material is permitted.

    (4) Andor episodes air on Tuesday on Disney+. Anyone who shares plot details about an episode before then must use spoiler tags. After that folks will begin discussing their reviews and thoughts without tags which will likely include spoilers. To anyone concerned about being spoiled before watching the episode it is your responsibility to avoid the thread until you have had your chance to view.

    (5) All leaks and rumors must be spoiler tagged until they are either proven or disproven.

    (6) Reviews for each episode may be posted once they have aired. One of the mods will add a grading poll to that episode's discussion thread.

    This season needs to open with Syril depressingly eating his cereal and zoom out to show that, now it is Dedra who pours it in his bowl for him.

    Out of her mouth, which we then zoom into to find that we are in the depths of a Star Destroyer bridge, bombarding a rebel base from within her gut (juxtaposed next to her digesting cereal). .

    The best was the end of the episode, where we find out the shocking reality that the wheat the rebels are harvesting is going towards making Syril's special new cereal, The Death Cereal.

    The best part about the cereal was finding out that Cyril now has is own brand, the Cereal Karn.

    Awesome start to the episode. The quietness with no score to things going sideways and all hell breaking loose was a great juxtaposition. I didn't expect the TIE heist to be leading the season off. Great to see Ben Mendelsohn back as Krennic. All the new locations and sets looked great. In a shock to no one, impending nuptials are off to a rocky start before they even begin.
    8/10

    I was so worried given the condensed nature of this season compared to last it wouldn't have time to breathe but man, how good.

    Great opening. Lots of action & excitement (Cassian's scenes) balanced with subtle growing tension (Mon's and Bix's and the Imps scenes)
