Andor is slow to start, but that's 2 episodes tops. You can't just have full action right from the get go, at least some exposition must be made
I didn't get bored of the show at all, and it's certainly not a short series at 12 episodes.
Even if you're not into Star Wars (which I'm not) it's definitely worth the watch.
To add to this one -
Welcome to Chippendales - A solid 8/10. Great short series about the history of Chippendales. From what I've read they got a little loose with the factual story, but definitely worth the watch.
Fun series to catch with the GF/wife.
