Compared to what? Which contemporary serialised media is better? I can't name one. We can go big and say the early GoT serie (not the late ones) or Breaking Bad. Andor is significantly better than both. Why be so dismissive?

What high art are you comparing it to that's so much better that it deserves to be so incredibly dismissive? Because if you've got something better to suggest that released in the last 20 years then I'd like to add it to my list. Chernobyl gets to go up there I suppose but it still had some brainworms, Handmaid's Tale was alright, Westworld not in the running, House of Cards is really trashy and not down to earth by comparison compared.. I don't know what I would say was better. Maybe Utopia? That was pretty rad. It shares some of the same production team members though lol.

I feel like you're being overly dismissive in a "it's star wars lol" kind of way instead of an honest comparison of the show to pretty much any other serialised content in the last 25 years. If we reel off names of series and ask which was better and has more depth to read into or analyse it comes out ahead quite a lot unless you're just wilfully trying to ignore that they're not really telling a Star Wars story, they're telling a communist story with a Star Wars skin as a way to get it past bean counters and execs.
