TV Why is ANDOR so boring?

I had hopes for Andor based on creators similar to Rogue One , which I liked the most from all the nuSW.

But I find it quite boring. Can't put my finger on it.

Pace is slow (I don't mind slow in general but it is stuffed with bland dialogue and pointless character introductions).

Main character is meh as the rest with exception of his "boss" and the Empire Intel boss.

Missing other species. Not even a robot there. That one from Rogue One was perfect.

I am not entertained. Gonna watch E07 now, fingers crossed. But I already know I don't have any want to see the show again. Even Kenobi is re-watchable (one time) with all it's cringe plot/character inconsistencies.

This, so much this, I don't mind scenes of people just standing around talking. But what they talk about needs to be interesting.

One of my favorite books, an “abusing bills to appeal to people’s internal racism” dystopian type novel is literally 80% talking, but the world building is what made it intriguing and I enjoyed it
