    None of it is good except for parts of season 1 of The Mandalorian.

    Ewoks in ROTJ were right up against the line, but didn’t cross it because the way they looked also served a narrative purpose in addition to their primary purpose of being a toy.

    Special Edition ruined the franchise in 1997, and everything since then has been shit on top of shit.

      You meant to say, Andor. Andor is easily the standout in that crowd.

        I found Andor to be shallow and pedantic.

        …Either that or I’m so sick of Star Wars I just couldn’t stand it. I tried three times to get more than 15 minutes in without falling asleep or zoning out, couldn’t do it.

          It’s a slow burn. I was not enamored with the first few episodes but by the end I was in agreement - best Star Wars since the OG trilogy. The acting is powerful, the writing is tight.
