The trailers for Disney Plus’s upcoming thriller “Andor” made one thing immediately clear: this is not your son’s Star Wars. The series creator has been unapologetic about Andor’s complexity and the ambitious scope of its storytelling. So today we want to take a look at the adults-only buzz surrounding the Andor premier, and question whether or not Star Wars has always contained mature elements and sophisticated themes.

Also on this episode: a requiem for—and a reckoning with—James Bond. It’s been almost a year since No Time to Die rocked the Bond fandom. Have fans fully recovered? Are we ready to let the past die and move on to the future? Or did our interest in the franchise die a little when those bombs hit?

The wait is over. After years of wanting, wishing, and hoping for the return of Obi-Wan Kenobi—last week, Disney Plus gave fans the series that they’ve been looking for. Or did they?

On this episode of Mad Unreal we explore the first two parts of the six-part Kenobi series and give Mad Thoughts on everything from a Jawa’s next level shadiness to a Jedi’s realization that his greatest failure is not only haunting him—it’s hunting him as well. But first, we’re going to spend a little time in the Marvel Cinematic Universe and ask an important question. With the recent news that Marvel Studios is developing a new Daredevil streaming series, we wonder: Will the MCU ever produce a truly “grounded” feature film?
