On the whole star wars thing: The Mandalorian is a good series. And even Obi Wan is doable, but than came The book of Boba Fett.
The series in itself might not even be bad, it was just dramaticaly bad expectations managment. The story which they told could have been about anyone, no need to use the name of the character Boba Fett there. Most people probably expected a series about the rise of Boba Fett as a galactic crime lord, what we got was a sad old man, living out the existence of a minor feudal lord on, yet again, tattooine. The best episodes where those where Dinn Djarin (the mandalorian) is also present, and there Boba Fett feels like an extra in his own series...
Andor was good, very good even, but it comes on the heels of a few so-so experiences.
Disney has been pretty hit or miss with star wars though: the sequel trilogy. Attempting to launch movies so fast in succession that Solo failed (while being a good movie in itself), and than a bunch of series which prefer to stay right on the edge of what we know, with the necessary cameo's of known characters, rather than exploring this gigantic universe out there.
Again, Andor got it right, but let's hope that it'll keep going in that way.
We did get Rogue One, which is some of the best content even according to me.
I agree with you 100% on Rogue One. Why they didn't continue along that rather dark path is still a mystery to me. It was told in a very different way than any of the others and I consider it to be top 4 of all the movies, perhaps even one step ahead of Return of the Jedi.
