> It was clear execs didn’t put a lot of stake on Andor
I often see sentiments like this about how the execs had no faith in this show and don't care about it, as if Tony Gilroy snuck it in the back door without anyone looking.
They reached out to Gilroy specifically, they put a ton of money into the project, they were willing to do a show that isn't really family-friendly (not in terms of gore/sex, just in terms of style and content), they greenlit a Season 2 before S1 completed and despite lower viewership numbers...
I mean it sounds more like the execs are very happy with the product and are willing to put money into prestige like this.
