Regardless of how expensive the show was, that money was well-spent as it's reinvigorated the flagging fan interest in the entire franchise. People would be excited to see more political thriller/spy procedural stuff set in the Galaxy Far Far Away now. I was already fascinated by the Doctor Pershing stuff in The Mandalorian; if they started building on that angle and did a "Kleya as an aging George Smiley-type working with Chancellor Mothma, General Syndulla and Senator Organa in trying to counter the rise of the First Order during the Galactic Cold War era" I would be front row centre for that and I suspect I wouldn't be the only one. Andor has made the politics of Star Wars exciting again, and I wanna see more Senate oversight committees with Leia going up against Senator Xiono et al. Though unfortunately a recast would be necessary...
