Andor is definitely a "put the kids to bed" kind of show. Nothing gratuitous happens, but there are plenty of point blank blaster shots to the face and season two actually has a rather uncomfortable sexual assault scene.

BUT ASIDE FROM ALL THAT...

Yes, Andor was great. They did a great job introducing us to new characters and developing them well enough to care about. This past weekend I re-watched Rogue One, then ep 4,5 and 6...in one day. For me, Rogue one turned "The Skywalker Saga" into a "Rebels vs Empire"...with a couple Skywalkers in it.

Also, isn't it funny how Star Wars and Halo are basically the same story? Outer rim human planets struggle for supplies while a central militarized government tries to over regulate them?

They are just told from different points of view. I mean, Darth Vader and Master Chief are the same person. Luckily, in Halo, aliens invaded to distract MC from killing rebel scum...I mean insurrectionists.
