After a wait of two and a half years, Andor returns for its second and final season, and the anticipation seems justified. In his glowing 9/10 review, Clint Gage praises Andor Season 2 for building upon the strengths of its predecessor, enriching the Star Wars prequel era. The series masterfully weaves personal stories into the larger tapestry of the rebellion, spotlighting the unsung heroes.
