I think it's the quality of writer. A truly exceptional writer can write a story about kicking an empty Coke can down the road for 10 minutes into something worth reading. But a shit writer who was only chosen for being fat, brown, and gay can be handed a universe capable of some of the most exciting and gripping stories imaginable and churn out something less appealing than a rotten cow carcass left in the sun for a week.

If the guy who wrote Andor were allowed to write a story about Jedi, it would probably be worth watching. But of course the story he would come up with wouldn't have enough faggots in it.

As far as DEI goes, I did notice there's one lesbian relationship in Andor, but it's hilariously accurate that one of them is a massive cunt to the other.

But other than that, the male characters never got shown up or made to be bumbling fools to pave the way for a girl boss. Andor and Luthan in particular are shown to be exceptionally capable the entire time. There's even that whole multi-episode prison arc where there are no female characters whatsoever. They also casted hot chicks for most of the female roles, and there were a surprising number of blacks casted as villains.

Also, the blasters in Andor actually seem like real dangerous guns. Like fuck, I don't know if it's the effects or the sound design or camera work or what. But every time someone shoots a blaster or especially gets hit by one, it seems like they are really getting fucked up with an angry mass of superheated plasma. Like more so than in any other Star Wars installment before, even more than the original trilogy honestly. A damn far cry from the Nerf lightsabers in Ahsoka.
