Andor is doing something that other Disney productions, even Mando to an extent have forgotten. Tell a good story first regardless what it is because stories are universal. George Lucas told his story through a backdrop of intergalactic politics and adventure but in the end it could have been set anywhere. That's what Andor is doing, forget the Skywalkers, Jedi, Sith and familiar elements of what we think of in Star Wars. Problem is the writers from Obi-Wan, Boba drop the characters in and write stories around them producing disjointed productions. Legacy characters are great but sometimes they get in the way of telling their own story.
