I was surprised that Andor's first episodes were as frustrating as they were, mostly because shows may be slow their first few episodes due to setup. But the same characters were back again and various events were continuations from where we left off in S1 (such as the wedding). So I didn't see why the pace wasn't faster.

That said I found the whole wedding aspect rather fascinating to watch, both because of the lavish production involved and also because it's something we haven't experienced before, certainly in such detail.
