‘Andor’ fans are blown away by a masterpiece season finale

This article contains spoilers for the Andor season finale

We’ve been counting the hours until the Andor season one finale, and now it’s finally here. Tony Gilroy and his incredible team delivered the goods, bringing together almost all the characters for a huge set piece on Ferrix to mark Maarva’s funeral. Every major player got their moment in the spotlight, with the closing moments leaving us primed for Cassian’s full commitment to the Rebellion, while teasing the ongoing construction of the Death Star.

After a critically acclaimed season, this closing episode had an enormous weight of expectation upon it, and the consensus amongst fans is that Andor nailed it.

Here’s how it’s going down on social media:

But, for now, let’s just bask in the realization that Star Wars is back in style, and (at least for now) better than it’s been in decades.
