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.
It was competing for attention with house of the dragon with no jedis.
Really?
Is cleared if from my radar thinking it was more of the usual , but maybe I’ll give it a look.
It’s the best star wars story out there imo. It really explores the motivations behind the rebellion.
You should 100% give it a watch! It so good
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.
Wow I fell asleep last night and completely forgot I was going to watch this today. Thanks for the reminder!
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.
Maybe the real problem is not star wars, but your lack of free time
Or I just like enjoying a well told story without the need to previously see dozens of hours worth of content which is remotely relevant in order to understand every reference and know each character’s backstory.
The only things I’ve watched of these is Rogue One and Andor and I doubt the other things is up in the same class but I might be wrong.
I reached it midway through Phantom Menace.
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.
Thanks!
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
I liked clone wars but I didn’t like rebels.
I have to be honest, I forgot about Rebels. By the end of Season 2 it started putting out some real bangers. Don’t blame anyone for not being into a kids adventure staring a brat with a laser slingshot, but I enjoyed it more than I did the Bad Batch.
MINUS: Ahsoka
PLUS: ‘Star Wars Visions’ or ‘Galaxy of Sounds’
I still have to watch Visions
Solo is missing, and that’s too bad.
It’s not missing. The image is for good star wars.
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.
Han Solo was one of the character iirc
And donglover as Lando. And Finnish basketball guy as Chewie. It’s a good movie
It’s a western in space and I loved it for that. I don’t really give a shit about all the space wizard plot lines in Star Wars though soo.
I fell asleep during Solo lmao
The standard really sunk low…
Yeah, there’s only 1 movie in there, and it’s the good one.
Asoka is just meh. Swap it for rebals
I only watched Rogue One and Tales of the Jedi, and I find them both quality content.
Ahsoka was a meh for me. I didn’t hate it, but all the live action stuff of her has been really disappointing. Becoming a Jedi again just feels like wasted potential and cheapens the most interesting thing she ever did.
(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.
I thought Mandalorian was pretty mediocre tbh
It was pretty good, only the ending in the Boba Fett series really fucked it up.
Made the whole journey worthless.
Kind of like the Last of Us ending.
lol no. Ahsoka was one of the worst Star Wars projects they’ve done yet. The rest of the list is spot on though.
But it’s missing The Last Jedi, which is unironically the best Disney era Star Wars.
Stepping away from tilting at my personal windmills, Rebels was Disney era and got to be at least as good as TCW.
But it’s missing The Last Jedi, which is unironically the best Disney era Star Wars.
I can’t agree that it’s the best Disney era Star Wars (though I will defend your right to say it).
But I do agree that it’s the best of the sequel trilogy. It had so much promise. Could’ve been tighter, and they throw a wrench into the sci-fi side of Star Wars, but overall it was good.
I would’ve had podracing in Space Monaco instead of alien horse racing, though. After all, podracing was based on Formula 1, and Monaco is like, the crown jewel of F1 (in that it’s a beautiful but useless spectacle, since the cars can’t pass each other there these days).
The Last Jedi? To each their own I guess. I don’t think any of the Disney trilogy deserve to be on it.
