To me it’s in tiers as well.

  1. Episodes I - VI, 2003 CW Microseries
  2. TCW, Rebels, Solo, Rogue One
  3. Other EU stuff I enjoy - books, comics, etc. - both from the Disney era and the Lucas era

The ST is in a weird spot for me, canonically. More often than not I find myself trying to fall in love with the movies but it’s just so hard to see them as a good continuation of the story. The good thing is that its biggest strengths lie in the trilogy as a meta narrative, each movie trying to communicate with the previous six in different ways. TFA and TROS I really dislike but TLJ I find a fitting coda to the saga. How “canon” those events are, though, is a different beast and I tend not to give it too much thought.
