Taking to Twitter, many viewers were full of praise for the series. One said: "#Andor is PHENOMENAL, the cast, soundtrack, set design, plot, costumes, just everything is perfect. It's dark and gritty but also charming and funny. I genuinely cannot think of a single criticism."

Someone else echoed this, writing: "Andor is an absolutely brilliant take on Star Wars. Lots of world-building and a brand new artistic element, I can't wait to see what else this show gives us. Episodes 1-3 were bangers. Also Diego as Cassian is as brilliant as he was in Rogue One."
Have you checked out the first episodes of Andor?
"#Andor is the biggest departure from the #StarWars formula yet and it thrives for it!" a third gushed. "It's a dark and mature story of the start of the rebellion - one that may not appeal to all fans. The scope and practical visuals are immense, perhaps the best-looking Disney+ original yet!"

However, other viewers had some criticism of the show. One complained about its slow start, writing: "The world building is great but again I struggle with TV pacing in Star Wars. We do not need all these walking shots. #Andor."
Another dubbed the show "dull" after failing to be gripped from the opening episode. They said: "I could only get through episode 1 of #Andor. I will continue watching the series, but it was just so dull. I'm sad about it. I was looking forward to this. #StarWars."
