I consider Andor to be in a class of its own in quality. The cinematography & writing are simply amazing; it’s very clear that the show runners have something to say, and went to great lengths to bring that vision to the screen. Criminally underrated by the wider audience, I consider s1 to be in the ranks of the best tv shows I’ve seen, period, never mind just as star wars material.
Really?
Is cleared if from my radar thinking it was more of the usual , but maybe I’ll give it a look.
Not to give anything away, but there is a three (or so?) episode arc in the middle with Andy Circus (sp? Anyway, the guy who played Gollum) that is standalone some of the best television I’ve never seen. Like, it’s such great incisive sci-fi anti corporate commentary, I don’t know how a corporation green lit this
It’s definitely not more of the same. It stands apart in tone, quality, and execution. It is in the right place in that picture, on top, front and center.
If franchise fatigue is a thing, by looking at this picture I realized I reached it a long time ago.
I reached it midway through mandalorian season 3. Still haven’t finished it or watched any of the series that came out since.
You and me both, I just can’t keep investing more and more time to keep up with things.
Mando season 1 and 2 yes, 3rd season not so much. Andor was fantastic, Ahsoka was ok, Rogue One was fantastic. Clone Wars S7 wasn’t technically Disney as it was mostly just finishing the animation with a few changes. I enjoyed Bad Batch, but it’s no clone wars and Tales of the Jedi was very good.
Am surprised Rebels isn’t on here, I know it’s not everyone’s cup of tea but I’ve been rewatching it with a friend and it’s very enjoyable

Well spotted, I guess Rebels is considered as the follow-up of Clone Wars?
Bad Batch is really that. Rebels is its own thing, unless you wrap it with Ahsoka. Rebels had a mediocre first season but after that it’s definitely top tier material.
As the other comment said, it’s not really a follow up. We do get characters from the Clone Wars appearing in it that you really need to have seen Clone Wars for but for the most part it is a seperate thing. Bad Batch is really the Clone Wars sequel, with lots of familiar characters and continuing the story of the clones as a whole
MINUS: Ahsoka
PLUS: ‘Star Wars Visions’ or ‘Galaxy of Sounds’
Solo is missing, and that’s too bad.
I honestly think Solo got most of its hate due to riding on the tails of TLJ. People hated episode 8 so damn much it colored their ideas about Solo.
It wasn’t spectacular, but I’d willingly watch solo twice before ever turning on 8/9.
Solo gets hate because it sucks. I couldn’t name a single character a week after watching it.
