I'm sure the character build is to slow for many people but I've really liked this season. I've always liked over detailed drawn out shows though. The one thing that makes me not like to watch it is Disney plus though. I watch most things through a service with no ads but my partner has access to it there and insists we watch it there to have the best quality or whatever. Every 5 minutes it feels like it pulls a rip cord and jerks you out of the immersiveness to take a shit on your enjoyment and play the SAME FUCKING ADS OVER AND OVER AGAIN. The ads don't relate to anything, it's almost why I give targeted ads elsewhere a pass. Emotional moment drawn out in painstaking detail...TRY OUR NEW SUPERMAX PEARL GHOST PADS!!. 1. I've never used a pad in my life. 2. I don't have a vagina. 3. I don't menstrate. This ad has done nothing but make me no longer want to participate in watching this content on your streaming service and is actively working to get me off of it.

Yeah the show is fun though.

Disney+ is being targeted by BDS right now. Perfect excuse to sail the high seas for Andor and skip the ads ๐Ÿ‘Œ

Yeah I use a paid addon in Streamio for most everything. What's BDS?

We stopped Disney+ for this exact reason. Gave up prime cuz of the same.
