I only saw the 1st 2 seasons of Mandalorian and it was pretty good. But Obi Wan Kenobi was better.

S: ESB
A: New Hope
B: Return of the Jedi

Not star wars: Anything the maus touched.

The prequels are great meme material but they were inferior and loaded with problems. they also reduced Vader to a whiney little brat rather than Obi-wan meeting him as he claimed in the OT. And Disney has done nothing but disappoint.

What a finale from Andor.

This show is, to me, the best Star Wars has ever been.

You do lose some of the sci-fi alien wackiness that add charm to the original six movies, but the writing is so solid that I didn't miss it. It carries the themes of the original saga so much better than anything else in recent years.

And while it is tonally different from the originals, I kind of love that thematically. Before the original movie, the rebellion is desperate and struggling, and you can feel that. Luke and his friends arrive and literally bring the titular new hope to the rebellion. They bring a sense of optimism and lightness that the rebellion needed, all thanks to the sacrifices that paved the way for it. Incredible storytelling.

Also, that final scene of the show was such a gut-punch
