Driven by interest into the venerable franchise, The Acolyte got off to a strong start when it launched June 4 with two episodes, generating 4.8M views in its first day on the streamer to rank as the biggest series premiere on Disney+ this year. The tally rose to 11.1 million views globally after five days of streaming. Corroborating Disney's data, the series made its debut on Nielsen's Top 10 originals chart in its premiere week at #7 (488 million minutes viewed), climbing to #6 the following week
But The Acolyte could not sustain the momentum, dropping out of the Top 10 in Week 3 and staying off before returning after the release of the finale at #10 (335M minutes, believed to be the lowest for a Star Wars series finale).

The OG starshitters hate the nu Star Wars. Every Star Wars soy I know irl including myself has completely dropped it. Except for Andor, which is pure kino. It was surprising how good it was considering how shit the rest is.

LucasArts and others made stuff like Dark Forces 2, Jedi Outcast, and the KOTOR series that had little-to-nothing to do with the Skywalker saga outside of maybe a cameo or two and those were still beloved despite the OT still being hailed as the peak of the series while the prequels were releasing at the same time and trashed by nerds everywhere. So the only way I can interpret this comment is this guy thinks Disney is too incompetent to handle the IP.

I'm sure Star wars cels would super consoom if they just make live action kotor with a mildly attractive bastila, even if the rest is almost as bad as the ackolyte

Nothing in the Acolyte was new. It was just more prequel shit.
