The second season of Andor has become the first television series ever to have a run of five consecutive episodes with IMDb user scores of 9.5 or above, with the episode “Who Are You?” currently holding the highest rating of 9.8.
With history made, it’s safe to say that Season 2 lived up to the hype from critics and the supreme confidence from Disney. Even in a year that has thus far included popular, high-profile hits like Severance Season 2, The Last of Us Season 2, and The Studio, Andor stands comfortably alone. For comparison’s sake, the Adam Scott sci-fi series only had one episode with a 9.5 score in its much-lauded second outing, while HBO’s video game adaptation starring Bella Ramsey has yet to crack anything above that mark halfway through its sophomore run. The red-hot Studio, too, has maxed out at a 9 with only one episode to go in the Seth Rogen comedy. It’s unheard of to have an audience so consistently impressed by a show, though Star Wars has flirted with this feat before. Before Andor, Star Wars: The Clone Wars was the gold standard for small-screen adventures in a galaxy far, far away, yet it came just one episode shy, with the final four episodes of Season 7 never falling below a 9.7 score. More recently, The Mandalorian also had a respectable run at the end of Season 2, topping out at a 9.8 with its finale.
