"Andor" may be set in the "Star Wars" universe, but in many ways, it's a big departure from the mainline films. While "Star Wars" has never shied away from dealing with darker material, particularly in "Star Wars: Episode III – Revenge of the Sith," "Andor" takes things a step further. With a weighty, dramatic, and somewhat depressing tone throughout, the show's vision of a galaxy at war feels much more realistic.
The first season of "Andor" went down well with the critics, with a lot of praise directed at the strong ensemble cast. While Cassian Andor is the title character, the show has no shortage of characters who are complex and compelling to watch. Relatively minor characters with only a few episodes are given realistic motivations, which can make their deaths hard to stomach. Even the less heroic and more flawed characters can make an impact on viewers, because the story of "Andor" is more complicated than just good versus evil.
Now that the first season of "Andor" has come to its dramatic conclusion, we're taking a look back at all the deaths that occurred to see which ones were the saddest. This ranking will only include deaths that were confirmed, so a certain character who can't swim will not be on it. Spoilers ahead.
