Yes, you read that headline correctly. The latest Stars Wars show, ANDOR, is a major step-up from what Disney — or George Lucas before it — has ever managed with the franchise. I say this as a lifelong fan, and as someone who has enjoyed most of what Disney has put forth in that galaxy far, far away (with a few exceptions, which I’ll touch on).
