For some, Syril Karn's interaction with his mother after losing his job might hit a little too close to home in Andor.
Editor's note: The following contains spoilers for Episodes 1-5 of Andor.Ah, Syril Karn . We feel your pain. When we sat down to watch the Disney+ Star Wars spin-off show Andor, we did not expect the writers to hold up a mirror to every millennial’s nightmare. That too through the arc of Syril Karn, a character that we already love to hate. But here we are—instead of despising Syril, we feel ever so slightly sympathetic toward his plight.
COLLIDER VIDEO OF THE DAY So, Syril is out of a job and has lost his corporate housing as a result. He has nowhere to go but back home. It’s a journey many millennials have lived through, but usually without having destroyed their employers. There are a lot of jokes made at the expense of millennials, despite being a generation that’s had it really rough. The planet’s dying, the economy’s failing, and no amount of skimping on coffee and avocados is going to buy us that house we want.
In so many ways, Syril’s experiences mirror that of many millennials in the real world—we worry about our job prospects, but our parents worry about them more, though neither group has control over the job climate. People have to hold on to jobs, no matter how awful they are, because any change in circumstance can be devastating. Having to contend with parents who only see how their child failed, and not what caused those failures, only adds salt to the fresh wounds.
