The first two episodes of season 2 dropped today. Watched them both, enjoyed them both. I found the second episode particularly interesting. It was the usual Bad Batch style of story and pace, but a bit more serious than I expected. As with season 1, very interesting style of animation.
Through the years I’ve never made any secret of my dislike of The Shrunken Universe. It’s one of the main reasons I’ve really enjoyed Andor. I suspect that’s the case for a great many people. Reviews for Andor mention it’s detachment from what’s come before as a big part of its success. That and the incredible acting, writing, and production.
All that said; while watching these two episodes of Bad Batch tonight, I realized that it’s still nice to come home for a little comfort food once in a while. Looking forward to the rest of the series.
