It's a stand-alone series and very different than Mando and the OG trilogy. The superb acting skills and dialog of Stellan Skarsgard, Genevieve O'Reilly as well as Diego Luna, and many others within this story of a perceived oppressive lifestyle that gives birth to a rebel alliance amongst the looming presence of the Galactic Empire helps make this series impressive. It's the story, character arcs, meaningful monologues and dialog that sets it apart from other Star Wars stories. no fan service.

Star Wars: Andor

This series redefines the Star Wars saga with superb writing and character arcs...with amazing acting, but without Jedi or Sith or lightsabers. It takes place within the Star Wars timeline between 'Rogue One: Star Wars Story' and 'Star Wars: A New Hope'. It's easy to become attached to both the antagonists and protagonists in this well written Disney+ tv series.
