(Sorry, I missed the "Disney" in the title) If it is, I guess I don't like Star Wars anymore. I haven't seen Andor but it's the only one I'm interested in.

I found clone wars and rebels unwatchable and have to imagine most of their fans got into the shows as kids. I didn't bother with Ahsoka because I don't like Ahsoka and I actually like the old Thrawn novels they are now trying badly to replace.

The Mandalorian was OK TV for a season but frankly went nowhere. They should have killed him off and followed someone new after a season or two when the show ran it's course. But making good TV isn't Disneys motivation, it's making money, so they will make the Mandalorian chase dark saber after dark saber until people stop watching.

Rogue One was OK but would have been much better with about half the cast so we could actually learn about and give a shit about any of the characters. The entire Tantive IV scene was unneeded and would have worked better as subtext.
