I think he posted in the other thread that he's watching with his woman, and she's incredibly bored by it. I asked to rank the SW shows, and beyond Mando being first, it was
Kenobi
Boba Fett
Andor

Sounds like she/they want some light fun action, nothing bleak, and known characters from the films if possible.

That's fine to like that aspect of Star Wars, and it's very definitely not what this show is.

Mando gets great reviews because it appeals across lines; you get the "aw, look at Baby Yoda! He's so cute!" crowd.
You get the Man With No Name in space angle of Mando himself.
You get the occasional big cameos- Asoka, Boba Fett, then obviously Luke in the finale.

This looks to be a different vein, a bleak situation of oppression where the protagonist goes from being a petty criminal on the fringes, to joining a terrorist movement (and let's go ahead and be clear on it, the Rebel Movement absolutely was that, before it got to the point of a hot war against the Imperial Military).
That may not be for everyone.
