I really liked it but…

I really like it but they just leave you with no ending, unresolved issues…the acting is good, the writing is good. Just a good story. I don’t need or want eight seasons but if you start something finish it! So the 4 stars is for that. Five stars for acting and writing. Whoever axed this gets zero stars.

Where’s the rest of the story??

Fun & funny but no resolution? Right in the middle of the plot line & no more episodes.
Grandruston

Not a cliffhanger-it just stops

Where is the rest of it? Show screeches to a halt with no resolution. Very weird, it's as if the writers abandoned ship part way through the series.

Why have you not released season 2?

This story was riveting. Unfortunately I didn’t realize it had been released in 2018 with no season 2. They leave you with a major cliffhanger! I’m going to have to hunt down the creator using “Sandra” and force them to finish.

Sandra!

Amazing storytelling! Please come out with a second season!
Destructababy

We need more!

Please make season 2

No second season?

Just listened through for my second time after many years. I love this series. How did it never get a second season with an ending like that?

Another story of how gimlet let us down by moving to Spotify

Pretty good storytelling, but by making it a multi season episode in a world, where podcast futures are uncertain. This basically left us with the Netflix factor: an unsatisfying story with no ending. And I’m just going to come out and say it: the Spotify app didn’t work correctly. Part of the draw was that it allowed for more dynamic ads, but all the ads I ever heard were cut off halfway through their announcements.

Amazing!

So happy to see this entire series again!

Where’s the ending??

This podcast was so good. But thumbs down to gimlet for not finishing it. And then gimlet is advertising a new podcast?? No thanks, they didn’t finish this one or Homecoming. So no, I’m not interested.

Plot is pretty dull.

I kept thinking it would build and go somewhere but it just fell flat. Voice acting and production were great but the plot was just boring. Also I haaaaate when podcasts go exclusive with Spotify.

Half Baked

Like so many of these bigger budget shows this is fairly polished but only half baked. I’d love to have well promoted and funded fiction with some people who actually care about fiction podcasts and audio dramas on the team.
Jess Giles

Please keep writing

I loved this podcast, excellent narrative and story line. I can’t wait to see what happens next 😬😀🙌 Will we get a season 2?
Tarma Roving

Good quality, but feels unfinished

The voice acting and well-structured plot here are great. The characters feel real and the "Sandra" concept is close enough to Google to be recognizable... and frightening. It builds to a tense, and unexpected climax, but then... what? Somehow the ending leaves me wanting more, and not in an "Encore!" way, but in a "Wait... that's it?" way. Perhaps more episodes are planned, or maybe I was in the mood for a novel and checked out a novella. Oh well. Still worth a listen.

Need more of this!

This is my favorite genre and it was very well executed. I’m always for recommendations on podcasts similar to Sandra. Wishing they’d come out with more!
adriiiii09

WHY would they delete all eps?

I literally just started this...came back a few days later and all the episodes are gone...

I need more episodes

This freaking show was my introduction to podcasts and I'm so sad there's no more episodes
Betsbird

Not to bad, worth a listen

I’m pretty picky when it comes to podcasts. Very much a skeptic, but this is worth a listen I just never can tell when a commercial comes on. Interesting concept. Enjoyed it.

Season 2 Please!

I listened to the whole season in one day. Please make another!
Heythereravin

Awesome Fictional Show

This show is amazing!!! I’ve listened to a few fictional podcasts, but this one is the best so far. I can’t believe I listened to it all the way through, all episodes, in just half a day. I need season 2 ASAP!!
Shh...Dont Ask

Awesome! Let’s continue it

Heck I write and I’m quarantined. I have nothing but time. Let’s finish Sandra.
NyJetGirL559

Please bring Season 2

I really enjoyed listening to this. I hope there will be a season 2!!! I really would like to know what happens next!
Guarddreamer

Dying for season 2

Ugh, literally no he’s the whole season in a couple hours. I could NOT stop listening. So invested in the characters and the story. I guess I’ll check out the other stories by this author in the midst of my desperate waiting for season 2.

Very entertaining and keeps you listening.

Great podcast

Just binged this. So good! Hoping for a 2nd season please!
shnrnmthr

Please release a Season 2!

I am so happy I found this podcast! It’s exactly what I’ve been looking for. The storyline perfectly entangles romance, drama, comedy, and action. It features some of my favorite actresses which is a major added bonus! I love that it acts out a solid storyline, but I just wish it ended on a more conclusive note. Please, for the love of god, release a season 2. I listened to all of season 1 while filing through my 2019 taxes so now I’m just sitting here covered in paperwork 🤷🏽‍♀️
bronsonian

Are there really only 7 episodes?

I don’t understand why nothing gets tied up at the end. It literally stops right in the middle of the action. No resolution. That’s super lame.
BoulderLoose

Pretty good fiction!

It’s been hard for me to come around to fiction podcasts but I did like this one.
NekoKnight_

It’s alright

I really really wanted to love Sandra. There are some moments that are beautiful and pure and really express the curiosity and drive of humans to learn. But I just felt like the show didn’t have any action, or much a story to follow for that matter. I just kept waiting for things to really get started. And when they finally did, there was only one episode left. And I don’t really feel like it ended or like the story concluded. It just kind of stopped. I would absolutely love for this to get a season two and complete the story, though.
Lauren1850

Fantastic

The concept, acting, and production were all great! It’s such a weird, dark story. I absolutely loved it!
Caesar's ma

Wow! Please have a season 2 ASAP!

What a concept and what a show! This needs to be a movie for sure but before that, please release Season 2!!

keeponlivin

Best podcast that’s ever been made!

I listen to a lot of podcasts and this is the best. The production, actors, sound is amazingly executed.
i like pie and i am cool!!!!!

Pretty rad!!

This show was pretty rad! Awesome story and acting, not too hard to follow so it’s easy to listen to while doing other things
Ash8787421780

How many commercials do you people need?

Also slow and bad acting.
jenni1900

Way too many commercials

Story is interesting but commercials every few minutes.
LibraryFan42

Interesting

Really interesting and unusual, but what’s with the weird repetitive gin ads?!
lifeunlimited

The ads made my ears bleed

Good show but the ads are remarkably annoying. Good god.
Bttbxx

Hendricks gin

Love the podcast, but the ads playing over and over and over are awful. I listened to the Hendricks gin as play back to back and wanted to die a little 🤷🏼‍♀️🤢
Rachel635

Great story

Really good, great story! But Gimlet has got to get their ads figured out. The finale’s Hendicks Gin ad was 3 MINUTES long! Whose idea was that?! That’s an infomercial, that’s actually anti-advertising. I think Im going to gag on every time I hear Hendicks Gin from now on. But otherwise, great podcast.
martell559

cool story

cant wait for season 2. i look at Alexa and siri in a different way now haha
hellopaperclip

SO GOOD! Please get rid of those obnoxious Hendricks ads!

I have been loving this show and I can't wait for season two. I just hope those two-minute, irritating-as-heck Hendricks commercials are gone. PLEASE.
Aziz lopez

I like it and I want more of it

It is a great show with a great story and characters. can not wait for season 2 to come
Awesome Andrea

Unengaging

Made it to episode 6, then couldn’t wait any longer for something... anything... to happen. Good cast and voice acting, but a terribly unengaging and slow podcast.
Sue...617

Season 2???

I’m yearning for Season 2 of Sandra!!
