You're creating something that doesn't exist.
Star Wars (ep 4) is adventure for all ages, ala Errol Flynn Robin Hood. Grownups can still like dashing, daring heroics.
Ep 5 ESB gets more grounded, more young-adult oriented.
Ep 6 ROTJ gets simultaneously more adult, and with the Ewoks more kiddie-friendly.
They've tried to veer all around the age map, having cutesy critters, sassy kids, etc. It's a tough fit, since there's always peril, and at times some family dynamics at play... but overall they try to make things from 8 to adult.
In this one, there is no cute appeal to the youngest crowd, and no "wow, that's so fricking cool!" high-flying adventures. It's a serious show, not very wholesome. I haven't seen Ep 4 yet.
So far, Andor lives in an oppressed world, and he's not a good person. He's a lowlife thief, and kills some guys, one in cold blood because he doesn't want to get caught, and it doesn't bother him. He justifies killing, because he fricking hates that side and believes they deserve anything that happens.
And he finds a purpose in the Rebellion, because they need guys who have no issue killing anyone for their cause.
That was not present in the old Star Wars, unless early on with Han.

Did anyone else pause and look at the stuff in the antique shop, where Stellan met the Senator?
My son and I perused what was on display...
A Mandalorian chestplate
Tablets with Open Hand, and Closed Fist symbols
A Sith- looking helmet
A Gungan energy shield
A Tusken Gaderffi stick
At one point, on the shelf behind the senator, both:
a Jedi Holocron cube,
and right next to it,
a Sith Holocron pyramid
a two-headed snake, almost looked like from Thulsa Doom (Conan)
And of course, he gave Andor a crystal that he said was from the uprising against the Rakatan Empire

Lucas has stated all along his Star Wars movies were always made for 12yo kids or kids in general. Why in the past he has bashed critics of the prequels when they complain they are so kid driven and friendly.
