In comparison of things that used to be great and then became complete crap.

Disney Wars actively makes the rest of the franchise worse, while I can easily just ignore later day Simpsons.

There's been like one good episode of the Simpsons in the last 15 years and that alone makes it better than Disney Star Wars

Andor (and Rogue One) cleanse Disney of all Star Wars related sins. Solo is also good.

Simpsons lose by default.

21st century Lisa is far far fouler than anything from Disney's Star Wars.

Probably The Simpsons.

Disney Star Wars is a mixed bag. Rogue One, The Mandalorian, and Andor were good, but those are buried under a pile of generic mass products that are filmed merely to maximize profits of the corporation. Back when Lucas was still in charge the executives were happy for the bucks he brought in. That he was only willing to go so far. Now there are no limits in milking the cash cow. Still, I think this franchise is superior to late-stage Simpsons because by pure chance they manage to come put with a passable product once in a while.

I think the perfect example of this is how The Mandalorian had the absolutely perfect series ending at the end of season 2, but Disney had to not only keep it going, they had used another series to basically undo it and hit the reset button so they can keep making more Baby Yoda merchandise.

How is this possible? Does the Godfather III being mediocre retroactively make I and II bad?

Early-mid 2000s Simpsons was still decent, and there's still been a few gems of good episodes in the newer seasons.
