I tried to give this show a chance, I really did, but the show made me so mad by the time it ended, so today I am going to talk about that.
So, I first came into contact with "The Acolyte" when I visited the Coming Soon To Disney Plus website. At first, I thought it was a Marvel show with Magneto in it or something like that. Well 2 weeks later, the trailer was released, and I said, Oh-Man! This show looks good, it has potential! Boy was I wrong.
So that weekend, my mom, and I went to see a re-release of the Phantom Menace at the Malco theater. So when the movie ended, I said "whew! That was one good, slightly annoying star wars movie!" So mom got up to leave, and then a sneak peak of the acolyte came on. So my mom stopped, and we saw an intense action sequence. So I said, "That looks good!" and my mom agreed.
2 weeks later, the first episode released. I excitedly ran up stairs to watch it, but it was a false alarm. The episode doesn't come on until 8:00 PM. Gee, I wonder who thought that was funny. Anyways when it did release, I watched it with my brother, and I was surprised to learn that Master Indara, the Jedi on the poster and in the previews, was killed off in the first five minutes. WITH A 4-INCH KNIFE. A Jedi Master would never die to a knife, unless the knife was as hot as a lightsaber. DISAPPOINTING. Then, they introduce this sibling twin murder plot which is very, very repetitive. Otherwise the rest of the episode was okay. Episode 2 was better, but the awkward moments were boring, and unnecessary. Especially, with shirtless Yord. Slap to the face. Episode 3 WAS THE WORST. This episode was not well-made, and broke Canon. I didn't notice it at first, but there was also some Far-left Woke Disney culture in the episode. Star Wars is designed for 12 year old boys. George Lucas said this, but Disney doesn't seem to mind losing money, and fans in favor of this. Nothing else to be said. Episode 4 was an upgrade, but it was very boring. Episode 5 was the action we wanted, but they killed off the best characters. Why create them for 4 episodes, if you plan to kill them off. Kimir, being the Sith Lord made no logical sense, and Mae (The Acolyte) would never surrender to the Jedi. Episode 6, was awful too, especially with Kimir's bath or whatever he was doing. At least Jar Jar studios could make a meme about it. Episode 7 was considerably better, but the whole episode had to many plot holes. Episode 8 was the end of it, I could no longer take it. Sol, the only good character left, was force choked to death by Osha, whom was my least favorite character in all of star wars and who also had not used the force in 16 years. Talk about stupid. She had no facial expression while doing it, and she did it even after all of what Sol had done for her. LAME. In the end this show is awful, please do not waste your time on it. Thank you for your time.
