Warning! This article contains light spoilers for Andor season 2, episodes 7-9.
Andor season 2's cast appeared to look back upon the highly-rated Star Wars show and hype up the final three episodes.
Streamed on Star Wars' YouTube channel and hosted by Screen Rant's own Ash Crossan, the Andor Q&A provided interesting insights into the opinions of the show's creatives. Where Luna is concerned, the actor was asked which parts of Andor season 2 stood out as highlights for him. Luna replied:
"For me, it was Ghorman... Ghorman and the Senate, those two episodes, because, the scale of the show is there. And when we executed it, you felt it, it was happening, we're crossing that plaza, the whole choreography was happening in front of your eyes... There were different events happening at the same time, it was just incredible."
Given the reaction to Andor season 2, episodes 7-9, I feel as though many will agree with Luna. The two episodes stand as the best-rated episodes of the entire show on IMDb, truly proving just how well-received they were and backing up Luna's glowing comments.
These Andor Episodes Are A True Star Wars Highlight
They Were A Turning Point In The Galaxy's Fortunes
What made Andor season 2, episodes 7-9 so special is just how big a catalyst they are for so much of what comes after them. Many knew that Mon Mothma eventually left the Senate and formed Star Wars' Rebel Alliance, but exactly how was only hinted at before. After these episodes, audiences know how one of the biggest acts of evil in the Star Wars franchise sparked a fire in Mon Mothma that would not be quelled. Mon's reaction led to the more organized formation of the Rebellion, rendering the episodes a fantastic piece of Star Wars canon.

The Rebel Alliance stood up to the oppression the Empire brought to the galaxy in Star Wars, and this is how they were able to fight back.
Not only are these episodes a Star Wars highlight because of how integral they are to the wider franchise, but they are incredible standalone installments in their own right. As Luna points out, the production on display was immense. Luna felt this firsthand, and that awe and dread certainly translated to the audience.
Our Take On Andor's Legacy
Andor Will Live On As A True Star Wars Great
If it was not clear already, I adore Andor. My own reviews of the show's second season echo Luna's comments, with episodes 7-9 of season 2 affecting me so deeply that I labeled them the best productions in Star Wars history. The sheer quality on display is remarkable and is a bar that Star Wars should strive to achieve with every production. This, combined with how perfectly Andor season 2 feeds into a massive Star Wars movie like Rogue One, solidifies it as a show with a legacy that will live on, with many agreeing that it stands tall as one of Lucasfilm's very best productions.
