In this series set in the galaxy far, far away, it’s been noted that characters like Cassian, Mon Mothma, and Saw Gerrera had their fates already established in previous Star Wars films. However, Luthen Rael was a fresh character, adding an element of mystery for viewers. Despite not being bound by canon, Andor seemed to give away Luthen’s demise quite clearly, almost spoiling it prematurely.

Much like the other characters in this new chapter, Luthen’s fate was inevitable, even if fans were hoping for a different outcome. Many viewers, anticipating his death and wishing for a reprieve, may have overlooked how the show subtly hinted at the direct connection between Luthen’s final scene and his first appearance in this saga.

A seasoned warrior from some past conflict, be it during the Clone Wars or the Empire’s early days, the man once known as “Sergeant Lear” longed for an end to the violence and loss of life around him. His encounter with a young girl hidden on his ship led to Sergeant Lear’s death, and Luthen Rael was born. Leaving behind the conflicts he had fought, Luthen embarked on a larger, more challenging war alongside the child Kleya by his side.

The adult animated show revolutionized storytelling by offering fans an unusual yet appealing premise. It delved into the special relationship between its main characters, Rick Sanchez – a genius but alcoholic scientist – and his grandson Morty, who is awkward and prone to anxiety. As a team, they journeyed through various universes, encountered outlandish alien societies, narrowly avoided disasters, and engaged in numerous unlawful escapades.

Many modern medical series, such as House, have attempted to exploit a familiar formula in their creation. Yet, it’s hard to deny that House mastered the art of presenting a medical crisis as a weekly mystery for its characters to unravel. This fusion of elements from the procedural genre gave birth to an innovative approach for medical dramas to establish themselves on television. Today, when you watch House, there are certain episodes that truly shine, not due to their adherence to the show’s established style, but because they offer something unique and memorable.

In the nineteenth episode of “Dragon Ball DAIMA”, titled “Betrayal”, Vegeta transforms into his Super Saiyan 3 form to battle King Gomah. Initially, he has the edge, but as Gomah keeps strengthening himself, he manages to withstand even Vegeta’s strongest attacks. Even though Vegeta’s energy levels are depleting, he’s always determined to keep fighting. That is, until his ultimate weakness enters the picture: Bulma. Through a humorous approach, Bulma persuades her husband to give up the fight, and the English Dub of “Dragon Ball DAIMA” made this joke even funnier than it was originally.

Initially, “Roadrunners” shifted my perspective on the show dramatically. I no longer saw Mulder and Scully as a united duo, but rather, I began to perceive Scully as the primary force propelling the narrative forward. Consequently, this exceptionally grisly and peculiar tale served as proof that “The X-Files” thrives on Scully’s fervor, not just Mulder’s fixation.

Instead, let me recommend another highly acclaimed movie from 2017 that you might want to watch: “Three Billboards Outside Ebbing, Missouri.” This film carries a layer of dark humor, but it also possesses a profound moral and emotional depth. The character of Mildred Hayes, portrayed by American actress Frances McDormand, is a grieving mother who struggles to come to terms with the rape/murder of her teenage daughter, Angela. Alongside Woody Harrelson, as the chief of police Bill Willoughby, and Sam Rockwell, playing the role of police officer Jason Dixon, this gripping tale unfolds in a small town. Mildred is on a quest to honor her daughter’s memory amidst the community’s discomfort with three large billboards that demand justice for Angela.
