The article didn't say that per se. It noted what was mentioned in the press release were all new shows, but none of the currently ongoing ones. Hopefully, that's all it was: an announcement focused on what completely new content they'll be putting out, not an announcement that the ongoing shows won't be done in time to release in 2024 (by sneakily not mentioning them rather than saying outright they won't be on air this year). I doubt they would do an "announcement by omission" rather than making a definite statement about those series since they have been wildly popular. We shall see.

Looks like the signs were indeed correct, this time (not scheduled for 2024 release):

^ not specific to Disney, but as we adjust to the upcoming dirth of content bc of the strike; streamers should really concentrate their efforts on pushing quality shows that got overlooked in the streaming wars

So I've read:

Andor Season 2 is set for release in 2025. The show will have time jumps every three episodes, with the season ultimately leading up to where Rogue One began. As such, there will be no Andor Season 3

I think we all knew it was headed here, but I really thought they would squeeze a S3 out of it. Why the hurry, I wonder? Surely they could have some stories about his exploits as a spy/saboteur.

Awesome show Star Wars for adults!

I would have tried my hardest to keep this under wraps

Deny, lie and try to keep it a secret until his episode aired

The issue I have is not so much that Disney wants to use Star Wars as a platform for LGBTQIA+ representation, but that it was guileful in doing so. Rather than leading early in the series with celebrated lesbian rebels, they waited until the audience is vested in the climax of 5 hours of plot development to insert a new character trait into existing characters, and not as a twist, but as a tomato surprise. It's disingenuous.

People are entitled to their own opinions. I have mine too. Have a good day.

Translation:

“How dare you make me care about these characters and what they’re going through before revealing that I should hate them!”

 

[Optimus Prime]

But would they use that word in the Star Wars universe? Maybe a replacement word/phrase like "fragging" or "farging iceholes".

To this day there is some controversy over Han’s line on Hoth when he was going out on a Tauntaun to look for Luke

“Then he’ll see you in Hell!”

What was he referring to?

Hell exists (even as a concept) in Star Wars universe?

I think one the books or comics tried to retcon it, forget how
