Same about his droid and I hope that Alan Tudyk voices him again! I loved having that little touch of Firefly in Star Wars.

I loved, loved, loved this series! It's so unlike the other recent Star Wars series made by Disney+, and I think that's a good thing. There are no light sabers, no space wizards, no mention of The Force -- just normal people struggling with day to day life under the Empire's rule.
The story stretches out over 12 episodes, which sort of breaks down into four chapters with three-episode arcs. All of them show us the growth of Cassian Andor from a minor thief into a full-fledged Rebellion hero that we'll later see in "Rogue One." But what I admire is that the story is given time to develop and the characters are given time to grow, unlike other series (Marvel being the worst offender) that drag on for a few episodes and then jam hours' worth of plot into one finale episode.
Practical effects were used for the sets as well as the alien make-up, which gives the show a much more grounded and genuine feel. We get to see Coruscant, the heart of the Empire, and the many layers of its social classes; outer-rim worlds like Ferrix and Aldhani; tropical resorts and prison planets -- all of which are affected in different ways by the draconian policies of Emperor Palpatine. Some people welcome the promised security of Stormtroopers and patrolling TIE fighters, while others realize that the escalating oppression will breed rebellion.
And even though Andor is the title character, it's not just his story. The plotlines are woven together so smoothly that it never feels jarring to go from a sheep farm on Aldhani to a senator's dinner table on Coruscant. We see characters on both sides of the growing fight against the Empire, and none of them are completely right or completely wrong. They all have a motivation that we can understand, even if we don't admire it. You've got Senator Mon Mothma, Luthen the antiques dealer/Rebellion recruiter, Andor's adoptive mother Maarwa, his sympathetic droid B2Emo, ambitious officer Syril and even more ambitious ISB officer Dedra Meero, and Andy Serkis appearing without any prosthetics or motion-capture.
It's a great series performed by a great cast in a galaxy far, far away that feels very close to our own.
