After Mando and the MCU, I thought they'd go in the direction where you create different genres set in the Sta Wars universe, instead every genre is a Saturday morning cartoon.

Mandolorian - Western with a villain of the season and the wanderer goes to a new planet/sector

Andor - Gritty spy/war drama

Police Procedural - A Jedi solves crimes in local town while in hiding

Book of Boba Fett -mob crime show like breaking bad, sopranos

Rom Com - An ex storm trooper and a rebel fall in love

Sitcom - the office but set in a moisture farm

Heist - like Leverage with a bunch of criminals

Horror - A powerful Sith is hunting Jedi

Obi Wan - Slice of life, Ben the hermit does gardening and chores for the townsfolk, tries to fend off attraction for the local blue milk maids, sharpens his mind into razor sharp focus instead of swinging a baseball bat around. Uses wit and logic to solves problems

Shonen - basically the games but better

War - band of brothers but with rebels

It's cause the people that fund movies and games have absolutely no imagination. So to get something funded, you have to sell it as: Think of it as "Friends, but set in the star wars universe"

Pitch meeting nails how producers green lights movies and tv shows.
