Original Title: Andor: One of the great things about this show is how lived in and real the world they built felt. So many sci fi shows look sterile and artificial. This show looked liked a real place that real people really lived in.
when it comes to sci fi producers and set designers love to create these ultra sterile, artificial looking, super high tech, ultra clean worlds.
And sometimes they look amazing. But the DON"T look lived in. they don’t feel like a place actual human beings reside in.
the real world is full of grit and grime. And sometimes things look perfect, but sometimes they look grungy. Andor often looks grungy, but it looks like actual real life human beings live there.
I think more sci fi shows should take a hint from Andor. Make your sets look lived in, it gives the show SO MUCH flavor and helps to make your world actually come alive as opposed to looking sterile and fake.
