Andor is being praised for its quality but criticized for its release scheduling

The second season of Andor, the acclaimed series from the Star Wars universe, has reached a remarkable 75% progress. However, many fans and critics point out that the release strategy chosen for this season may be harming its reception. Instead of a weekly format or a full release like Netflix, Andor opted to release three episodes at a time each week, something that has generated frustration among viewers.

A way to dose content that doesn’t work

This way of distributing content has complicated fans’ planning, forcing them to adjust their schedules to consume three hours of television in one night. This approach, while effective in the past, seems to be unfavorable in a saturated entertainment options environment, where other shows, like The Last of Us, have opted for a more staggered release and have maintained their relevance in public discussion.

As viewers’ schedules fill up with multiple series, the difficulty in keeping up with Andor becomes a tangible problem. The lack of a flexible release model has led to a decrease in anticipation and enthusiasm for upcoming content, despite the technical and narrative quality of the episodes.

Industry experts suggest that this launch strategy could lead to Andor being forgotten by the end of the year. The barometer of currently popular and discussed series raises a concern: Andor could lose its place in the spotlight to other more accessible productions. Communication channels and platforms have highlighted the need for Disney to review its approach for future releases, avoiding the mistakes made this time.
