That's kind of interesting. Quality of his shows aside, everyone from SoA seemed to love him. I wonder what changed.

Reply to Currently on the last season of 'Head of the Class' (random thoughts, no spoilers!) by mikeymiggz
One weird thing from that show was for years I thought Eric the fake Fonzie from Head of the Class and Jesse's New York asshole brother Eric on Saved by the Bell were played by the same guy but they're not!

Anti authoritarianism in Andor. Especially how the show doesnt try to do the "we will vote out the fascists" like what other shows like to do. It shows how militant movement is the only way to remove such a force

Yeah, Sutter did the first two seasons and then he was fired.
The show has always been about the Mayans and a Cartel and there are just way too many storylines going on all the time.

Nuked mj and peters marriage and retconned it out of existence basically, because he didn’t like it. Also house of m and the depowermen, which I liked when I thought it was temporary

So kind of like Sons of Anarchy. Did Kurt Sutter do this also? Kinda starting to feel like he's the Zack Snyder of television.

Now see, that's more like it. They're out here trying to sell me the reimagining right off the bat, and I haven't even heard it regularly-imagined. How's a guy expected to appreciate subtle thematic parallels and dramatic irony under these conditions?

Most new stuff is not good, but Andor is one of the best shows I've seen in the last 5 years, Star Wars or not.

God discourse on this place sucks. People just responding to buzzwords in headlines of articles they didn’t even read about shows they don’t even watch.

First season was amazing. 2nd was mediocre. 3rd is trash. Thank god for Andor.

There was also a threat of a writers strike in 2019 around the same time, only they've managed to come to terms before it began

I didn't realise it ever was, I watched it on Netflix. But I think it might be on All 4 at the moment.

International interdependence in works has become more of a thing as of late. Netflix has been getting lots of Korean and Japanese dramas to notable success (Squid Game, The Glory, Alice in Borderland, those movies from that Indonesian director like The Night Comes for Us and The Big 4) and that would serve as some insulation if a strike happens. Would definitely explain Netflix spending cash on improving the special effects capabilities of Japanese studios (which they’ll need to tackle stuff like Yu Yu Hakusho).
That being said, just paying the writers seems like the easiest solution. We’ll see if they do so.
