Well said. It was 'whelming' and Thrawn just didn't quite get the portrayal that the character deserved. I don't fault the actor as much as the season's plotting and writing. The character came off as a strategist, but not to the same level as a Lex Luthor of the Star Wars universe in terms of intellect and strategy. I'll keep an open mind though and hope future storylines address some of these concerns. Andor, Rogue One and peak-level Mandalorian remain the best of Star Wars TV/movies for the last decade or so in my opinion.

Yeah Andor just raised the bar on what Star Wars can be and it’s definitely put the rest of the shows in a different light. Season 1 Mandalorian was a similar revelation.

Also think Thrawn looks like blue Elon Musk lol.

I’m glad someone else sees it too, cause Elon Smurf was not what I was expecting from Thrawn and I’m not sure how to feel about it.
