    I could see Katherine Kennedy approving it. But hopefully Bob iger won’t

    Three different spellings of Leslye Headland’s last name in one piece. Congrats. That might be a new record.

      Corrections made, I noticed. Thanks for making adjustments based on my comments. I feel seen.

    Why reward atrocious writing and incompetent storytelling from a company based on writing and storytelling?

    It’s not nearly as bad, and damaging to cannon as people say. It exposed flaws in everyone’s precious Jedi order and people can’t handle that. Also, the 18% is the viewer score on RT and is the result of an aggressive review bombing campaign. The evidence supports that. The critics score of 78% is probably closer to the quality of the product. The SW fan base is absurd and have never been tolerant of anything new and interesting.

      It’s not review bombing, people just don’t enjoy propaganda shoved down their throats. It was a pretty pathetic show anyway.

        The original trilogy, starting with A New Hope, was also propaganda. For some reason, people didn’t mind that so much.

    The Acolyte was absurd through and through…this was nothing but someone’s selfish take on what they wanted to force feed the fans, out of vengeance towards them….we also got a bad onscreen imagery of what goes through Leslye H’s mind…..yuck.

    i don’t see any propanda shoved, even if many of the extreme male fans think that witches shouldn’t use the force in creative ways and terms.

    into ep 7, this show is mainly a thriller focused on distorting viewers perception of what’s right or wrong, or how a group of monolith community hoarding an industry leads to peril and separation because there’s obviously more than 1 way to do something

    Since Jar Jar… are we forgetting the last jedi and solo. I actually enjoyed the acolyte myself, but I can understand why some didn’t. It was poorly executed. Though I have to say the last episode was very well delivered in many ways. But much of it needed so much more work. I was expecting a lot worse, that might be why i was impressed.
