    I might be one of the only people who wasn't the biggest fan of the Acolyte but who also still wants a second season. I think there was still potential to salvage some of what I didn't really care for in the first season if certain corrections were made in a second season. I know that even if it did come back it would probably not fix everything I'd like it to, but still.

      I want a second season of The Acolyte. My problem with season one is with the storytelling and the way the episodes were told. If it had a little bit better storyline and the episodes align more with what we were watching I would’ve enjoyed it that much more. But there’s definitely questions that I need answers to.
      1. Why is Senator Raincok wanting to investigate the Jedi?
      2. Why are the Jedi of the high Republic so secretive?
      3. Why cover up Sol death?
      4. Darth Plegas.? You see the master or the apprentice.
      5. How did the witches conceive the twins through a virgize in the force?
      6. What is the situation between Qimir and Master Vernestra Rwoh?
      7. And what Grand Master Yoda involved in all this?

    I hope it does. I think a lot of the hate came from the more infantile audiences. If you've matured enough to know, you'll have probably recognized the deeper, darker tones and where the story was likely headed. It's not one for little kids with a monotone understanding of morality/right and wrong. At least not exclusively. It needs another season to bear fruit. It is "The Acolyte", not 'The Jedi youngling', or 'the ewok'.

      Now that I think about it, I think that season 1 was just setting the stage for the last two seasons like OSHA’s turn to the dark side was supposed to be grounds for her being a competitor against Qimir fighting for the favor of Darth Plagueis and the two meaning Osha and Qimir would have to battle it out to the death to be Plagueis’ apprentice like maybe she was supposed to end up being a Sith Assassin. Personally I would not mind a season 2 as long as they made it so much better like focused on the dark side but with the Jedi trying to hunt them in little tidbits here and there. As for the ending of what season 3 would be I feel like the winner of the dark side power struggle being either Qimir or Osha they would be killed and replaced at an elder age when Plagueis finds a little boy that we all know and loath in his older years as Sheev Palpatine aka Darth Sidious. I feel like this would bring the story of “Star Wars The Acolyte” to popularity making it like a three season run of Plagueis searching for a worthy successor for the Sith Legacy, I know it will bring extreme backlash for me to say all this but I would personally love to see Qimir back at it and how his and Plagueis’ story would pan out

      1. She promised a lot and didn't deliver.
      2. She was banking on a second season.
      3. The Jedi were inept and had terrible motives. Lee Jung-Jae shouldn't have been a bad Jedi, and neither should the actors for Indara, Kelnacca, Osha, Mae, nor the witches been subjected to this writing.
      4. She borrowed from the EU, but didn't bring it near George's vision....
      I can list more, but that's enough. She can keep writing credits for Qimir, Osha and Mae. I'm pretty sure those are the only characters who would return from her idea. I won't quite insult it with fanfiction, but it's very close.

    I actually loved his character. But they absolutely blew it. They could have focused entirely on Quimir being Venomis and the show could have been Plageuis vs Venomis for the Apprenticeship of Darth Tenebrous. Like THAT is what I fully EXPECTED when this show was first announced. The show being named “The Acolyte” and pitched as a “Sith-focused” show - all we got in reality is a complete DISMANTLING of the Jedi as we knew them. And that was just unacceptable by most!

    There were only four half-decent characters, one got killed straight away (Indara), another died pretty unceremoniously in the first half (Yord), one got "Jake-Skywalkered" and died (Sol) and the last was Qimir. Every other character was some combination of boring, bad and terribly acted. The sooner they just let it die, the sooner the negativity it inspires will die down.
    I was cautiously optimistic about Skeleton Crew. I'm pretty happy with it so far, for me it's got that Star Wars spark that's been missing from some Disney productions, and I hope it continues to be good.

    Why hasn't Disney pushed KK out yet, her decision to allow LH to go far off reservation with what *could* have been good if it wasn't trying to push her agendas and service her fantasies. Going way over budget is further reason to push LH out in favour of someone who can actually make good SW content. Some of the content was good, the acting was pretty decent from the seasoned actors, if someone without agendas and who understood the fandom was at the helm it would have been a hit.

But they didn't, the writing was half arsed, the episodes too short. It's sad because I would've loved to see what happened between Qimir and Vernestra, more of Plagueis, and I can understand why the actors are sad, but at the end of the day the show was not well written and just didn't have the viewership.

The cast was great, and the connections to The High Republic were intriguing. Yes, season 1 of The Acolyte was not well executed, and yes, Plagueis should have been involved much sooner in the story. That said, I do wish that it hadn't been canceled due to hostile reactions. As a writer myself, I hate seeing a potentially fascinating story left unfinished because of fan backlash.

    I’m in agreement that this show just didn’t deliver, and I’m not sure a season two has a cats chance in hell of getting green lit. I also agree if they did then it would require new show runners because the cost went out of control and it looked worse than any of the other shows Disney have made for Star Wars. I’m not a fan of the visuals that Disney have created for that age in the galaxy, especially the Jedi robes. They just don’t look serious with white and yellow robes. I know some people didn’t like Ahsoka, but I thought it was really good. It left off at an interesting point in the story, but one point bugged me, there was no hug between Hera and Ezra at the end. That felt weird to me, because they were like family.

    I liked Acolyte, it wasn’t perfect but it was better than Boba Fett by miles and I think probably better than Obi Won also. Not as good as Ashoka, most Mando and Andor which is the best but still enjoyable. Better than Skeleton Crew by a lot based on the first episode.

    There are plenty of shows with truly awful 1st seasons with interesting concepts that had people who still believed in the premise or the story and were willing to rework the show or story and let it fix the issues. Streaming doesn't do this anymore, and I think it's a bad sign for the franchise that the first live action story set outside of the same 30 year period of the pt and ot has been so thoroughly retreated from by Disney.
    They need more people who are like Tony Gilroy in the driver's seat, someone who can stand up to the Disney corporate scrutiny that pushes the common streaming model at the sacrifice of story and plot.

    • @mr_eeeez
      @mr_eeeez 13 годин тому +1

      Yes, I agree. There were a lot of regular TV shows where the 1st season or a significant portion of the 1st season aren't very good. It's like the writers, actors, and directors need to get comfortable with the characters and the story before it really takes off. A lot of really good shows were like this. There is this instantaneous feedback now that makes Disney gun-shy around a lot of negativity. the Solo movie got a lot of negative feedback so they turned Kenobi into a TV show. WTF? Kenobi probably would have done better as a trilogy of movies.

      I'm watching Stargate SG 1 rn. It's first season is ROUGH. It would have been cancelled today but instead it got more than 7 seasons and several spinoffs. Corporations have never been more impatient and greedy to get returns on their "investments". TV and movies are so much more than parts of a business portfolio.

    From all the events in the final episode, we need to see the Jedi temples of Yavin 4 and Lothal, Darth Malgus in live action, and we really need to see the first Skywalker in the acolyte season 2 or a sequel movie. Maybe we can see a lightsaber duel between Vernestra Rwoh and Qimir in the second season. We could see Baylan Skoll in tales of the Empire season 2. Let's hope Gina Carano's character returns in the mandalorian movie and I can't wait to see Luke Skywalker meeting Ezra Bridger for the first time in Ahsoka season 2. Besides, everybody needs to forget the lame lawsuits.

    I'm so confused by lots of people(including you, Meg) saying the Acolyte was a terrible depiction of the Jedi. Like, do you think the prequel/clone wars Jedi were good at it? The Jedi have always been extremely flawed and often wrong. This includes Yoda and Obi-wan in the original trilogy but is expanded upon in the prequels. They have good ideals, but because they are too rigid and political they often fail to meet those ideals. I feel like the Acolyte was faithful to that.
