Do you mean the first couple of episodes of the first or second season? Been a while since I watched the first season. In any case Andor is comparatively a bit of a slower burn, but comes together very well imo.

As far as White Lotus goes I have no doubt that it is pretty good. I've heard lots of praise and the likes of Carrie Coon obviously are great actresses. It's just 4 out of 7? When Andor isn't short on amazing female performance either, like for example Denise Gough as Dedra Meero, Genevieve O’Reilly as Mon Mothma, or Elizabeth Dulau as Kleya Marki. (I assume they would count as supporting characters)
