The Acolyte viewership is slowing down...

- Star Wars The Acolyte got its first 5d-ay viewership numbers in. And it's Disney's biggest original debut in 2024. But here is why that isn't exactly good news...
#StarWars #Disney #TheAcolyte
The high search numbers is people watching the review scores plummet.
Yep, just like I do, never saw it, but I still search to watch the reviews getting worse and worse
@@FSousA7X I also have this same sick joy
Yep, I do that many times as I check a few rating platforms to watch that incredible slide ;)
oh gosh, the reality of it being good so far is THAT tough to swallow?
@@paulbasaur The most neutral people say it was decent the first 2 episodes, and the 3rd being pure cringe.
What’s incredibly disingenuous about the “first day numbers” is that the “4.8 million” is for two episodes not just one. Disney is playing a shell game by comparing apples and oranges.
@aeschylus6250thats what they used to do. on the Acolyte i think they changed how they calculated it
ever since lefties took over disney, it's been going down the shitter
What's even more disingenuous is that the viewing numbers were never stated to be world wide views. 4.8 million views worldwide, is abysmal.
"Keep it civil"
This is where the fun begins
There's that thing that was called a Civil War ...
Don't even hate watch the Acolyte everyone, it's not worth our valuable time.
Bye.
If I ever do decide to hate watch it, or any other of Disney's slop, it certainly won't be on Disney+
Same with Amazon. I have Prime but I still pirate their shows because fuck 'em for putting ads in front of paying customers.
Imagine being so sad you'd hatewatch a show
Aye. We vote with our wallet. That'll hurt them more than our complains.
@@AlexSDU you won't make a tiny mark
As that weird mother witch actor says "yas" "yas"
yes
90% of the viewers are hate watching and creators watching to make fun of it
For good reason
After 3 episodes I actually look at the comments section on one of these... I've watched/read more Star Wars material than anyone in my fam/friends and the absolute shock of this community's reaction being the complete opposite of mine is still wearing off. It really gets the campy feel of classic star wars, but I guess that's not what folks wanted....?
"Attack me with all your strength"🤡
@@paulbasaurit literally ruins everything that Star Wars is
@@paulbasaur I feel the same way, it nails the campy feel of Star Wars, has some really cool fights, fun setpieces, lots of aliens, and portraits the Jedi in a manner that is very close to Lucas vision, yet people seem to hate it? It's so strange to me, I feel like I'm watching a different show than these people...
People are getting tired of this slop.
I made it to 3 episodes. I’m done.
I bet even a few of the actor's are...
Shut up... It may not be for you, but it is for some
@@odstraven9941 Yeah for like maybe 3% of fans.
@@randomrobin7773 yeah they're probably the same people who liked the halo tv show
Who would have guessed that making bad content would make the viewers go down
Uh, I have seen worse. This is not too bad so far.
There is defintely an organised hate campaing though. No reasonable person woudl give it a friggin 1/10 like the "user reviews" on IMDB. It's either organised or a startling number of people lack the capacity for even the bare minimum of nuance to use a 1-10 scale properly.
@@LordDarthHarrycope
@@LordDarthHarry I've seen this reasoning elsewhere (including the article you're probably parroting this from), and all I can say is - please don't act brand new. In case you are brand new : how humans use rating systems is something that has and continues to be actively studied. The one thing we know for certain is that what you're describing as a "nuanced" rating is not the norm. What's normal is polarization and middle avoidance. The less moderated and informal the setting - the more likely the rating system is used as a binary signal of disagreement.
so no, it doesn't mean what you think it means.
@@StrykeSZN worthless comment
I wasn't advertised lore breaking Lesbian propaganda therapy for Leslie. I was promised a Star Wars crime thriller, so goodbye to my viewership.
Where was the "Lesbian Propaganda"? Make me laugh far righter
@KoobanHooves1 The whole "our kind wont be accepted" garbage was clear social commentary on lesbians not being accepted. The whole only female witch coven was symbolic of lesbian society, and the making babies using the "thread" was symbolic of the creation of babies without actually having sex, which wealthier homosexuals resort to.
@@Old_Tom-u6yYou mean besides the creators saying it?!
@@RandomNPC001 where did they specifically say this is lesbian propaganda? What even is lesbian propaganda?
@@Old_Tom-u6y So you did not watch the interview were they talk about how this is the "g@yest star wars ever" , "every geek is g@y", "C-3PO is g@y", "R2-D2 is a lesb!@n"?! Those words actually came out of their mouths. This show is one very expensive therapy session for Leslie Headland, $180 million for 8 episodes of 25 minutes of nothing, but pandering!
The power of many.
meh-ny
The power of many chromosomes.
The Acolyte is the most expensive Star Wars series to date, so being closer to the bottom instead of the top is a pretty bad sign.
It deserves to be there
@aeschylus6250 Andor was ~20 million per episode, while The Acolyte was ~22 million.
Andor also had to contend with the unknown effects of Covid though, while The Acolyte had the benefit of being made in a more mature market, so the The Acolyte should have been cheaper and easier to make; as of yet though, that hasn't demonstrated any benefits.
Regardless, Andor could afford to underperform, since Disney never expected to build off of it in the first place, since Rogue One already concluded that story. The Acolyte, by contrast, is the live-action flagship of the High Republic era, so underperforming might have graver consequences.
Yeah it's amazing how much money they have wasted then. Definitely doesn't feel as a top tier expensive show.
CW could've made it a better tv show 😂
Obviously, what did you expect? In episode 1 you can see how badly it is acted and how shit dialogue is, that's outside all the writing decisions.
So for an average viewer who checks it out of interest what was so heavily marketed- it's star wars in an era they are unfamiliar with, with wooden characters they struggle to care about in a "murder mystery" plot that even a 7yo kid can quickly put together from watching the first 1-2 episodes.
That's, again, not even mentioning the general writing quality and some decisions an average viewer might disagree with.
Yeah the acolyte has achieved one great thing- uniting all Star Wars fans in agreeing how shit it is
it's rather good
Yeah, I like most of Disney’s stuff. Outside their trilogy and Boba Fett. But this is inexcusable. CW tier garbage.
Nah, man... Most normal people I've seen say that it's just ok or fine. A lot of the hate I've seen from the show is talking about the most trivial stuff / misinterpreting a lot of stuff. I also saw that, somehow, the Acolyte has more reviews made by users compared with ALL the shows that were successful in the past. Also, considering how most IMDb stuff that has "Acolyte" in their name gets review bombed.
Not true, your just stuck in the "hating it" bubble
The sequels already did that, it made prequels and originals fans agree they were suite.
Sometimes i can't tell if your keeping a neuteral stand on the shows or inhaling some strong copium

@@seanbehnisch6185
Sure, but this starwars is centered around star wars. Strong emotions about a bad show that is indicative of where the franchise is heading seems OK to me.
dude you're literally a crybaby. you're whining about a show you claim is for "sensitive woke snowflakes" yet you're here being a typical snowflake
blaming everyone but themselves
Of course it is.
It is also worth mentioning that the Acolyte, unlike Ahsoka, isn't written around popular characters, so people wouldn't have as much interest in it as Ahsoka.
I thought Ahsoka was really good, I get why people dislike it, but I thought it fit everyone's character very nicely with new great character s.
acolyte is too woke.
Plus Ashoka being written about beloved characters is a double edged sword, it’s why all the new marvel movies fail, they are confusing if you don’t know the previous backstories of characters.
@@pubg-blsy3352people who say “woke” as something negative is not, and never was, Star Wars target demographic. You all can go watch Rebel Moon.
@@pubg-blsy3352Yeah yeah we know, there's black people and women and that's why it's bad
More like people lost interest after they watched the 1st episode
I have been defending Disney Star Wars since the sequel trilogy but I truly have nothing to say for this. In the words of SpongeBob 🧽 S3 Ep50: "You're on your own pal."
Huh I've kinda been on board every backlash to disney Star Wars projects that has happened, yet this feels like it gets the classic overly campy feel of the originals while blending in high republic pompous jedi.. so its a first for me as well.
Honestly this is better than Ep 9. Ep 9 was genuinely horrible.
It was pitched as a show about the sith and from the Sith perspective. Instead we've got a TV-14 show about moronic jedi and a brat assassin. There has only been one Sith in the show and he didn't show up until the last 30 seconds of episode 2 to spout some nonsense about Sith not using weapons while he ignites his weapon.🤦♂️
And the third episode was just a bunch of nonsense.
Patience is not your strong suit.
@@conscientiousobjector5988 to be fair, a tv series is supposed to hook people early on to ensure they keep watching, i have only watched episode 1 of the acolyte, mostly because the show has awful pacing. They set up the show to be a murder mystery "someone is killing jedi" but 30 minutes into the first episode they dissipate any suspense by having all the characters figure out Mae is alive and responsible, removing all the mystery and any reason for a viewer to feel the need to watch the next episode. They then show a sith in the last minute if i remember correctly but its hardly enough to keep my attention and from what I heard the sith doesn't make another appearance in ep 2 or 3, could be wrong as i haven't watched it. A whodunit is usually a far more successful plotline than a whydunit and a whodunit usually evolves naturally to a whydunit by the end but the acolyte solves the mystery too quickly.
@@janoslambert-cannon7146 Supposed to? It is a rarity. And some of the most memorable programming I have watched over the course of my life took patience to develop an affinity for. But I don't really want to have a discussion about that. It's not my role in life to consider every one else's gripes when it comes to something as trivial as fiction. Either you watch it or you don't.
@@conscientiousobjector5988then why are you commenting.. and responding their claim about why they didn't enjoy the show...
@@ESPcrb Because too many people have too many different complaints about why they don't like it. Statistically, this suggests there may be a common reason but instead of being honest about it, that reason is being concealed with excuses whether consciously or subconsciously.
Even my father who has been a star wars fan ever since the first movie released said that he will unsubscribe from dinsey+ because he wants to stop supporting this crap
I’m OG ‘77 too and I just did. And I have a Disney princess age daughter.
stopped after eps 2, and I'm glad not too hurt my eyes with eps 3.

@@conscientiousobjector5988 well he scourges the galaxy trying to find a way to do this and is the emporor so has all their knowledge for the most part including the Jedi archives... why would he not know about this? Why is it so easy for them and not him?

@@chocolatebar6785 The issue is Force clones.. regular clones are created in a lab so it just is different.
But Force Clones..ALWAYS.. burn out because they can't handle the load. its in all cannon all the way back.
Honestly, I’m hoping some kind of huge crash in the Disney stocks or something happens to either, make them sell off the IPs to better people (hopefully, like Dreamworks), Disney changes for the betterment of the customers (probably not 😔…), or Disney falls aparts.

Over a year or so ago, Disney stocks were trading at $200 a share. Now they're trading at under $100 a share. And they're still staying on track with the DEI nonsense. It goes to show that Disney doesn't really care about money. It's all about sending a message.
The high republic just has cool looking villains in the form of the Nihl and that's it.
Acolyte was the final straw for me, but really it was the pricing for Disney+. I couldn’t justify paying $22 per month for Disney+ when there’s at best 3 shows I wanted to watch, (including Acolyte).
I didn’t know people were still watching this doo doo.
I guess yall didn’t get the message after rise if skywalker
Who cares if people enjoy this, if majority of fans don’t like it we should voice that so we can get quality content. Imagine if people said the holiday special should be the standard for quality just because people defend it.
Me, personally, I’m completely done with Star Wars. This whole woke agenda being pushed. (And yes there is one, fight me in the comments you shills) has genuinely pushed me away.
Every show now hates masculinity, they hire people who are activists or what I would consider insane people, and I just feel like I’m not the audience anymore by the people who make Star Wars.
I’m fine watching every franchise I love die as long as Halos still fine.
Oh, wait….
I’m with you there. About Halo, they just need to figure out how to make a good game at launch lol
My biggest complaint is they didn’t cast actual identical twins to play twins or just use one actor for both young twins. I found it distracting and insulting.
Tomorrow is tuesday. You know what that means.
Time to torture yourself and see how awful the next episode is.
I just hope they cancel it for our sake.
Prepare to have your dreams killed, little guy.
If it's so awful and you hate it so much, why are you watching it then? Better yet, why do you care? isn't it bad? so just ignore it and let the rest of us who aren't being manipulated by the outrage machine enjoy it. take your racism, sexism, and homophobia back to reddit twitter, or 4chan or whatever cesspool you came from
Or just don't watch it
Interesting how you care so much still about something you say it’s so bad. It’s so obviously bad that you have to keep reminding us how terrible and woke it is. Almost like you’re miserable as a human being in real life and nobody likes to be around you. Haha it’s not getting canceled. Acolyte is a finished product and it will be judged accordingly, not by your standards of racism and sexism and homophobia
@@EvilOverlord1662 they can’t help themselves. They need to feel outraged and tell everyone of their online friends how mad they are about “wokeness” (because they don’t have friends in real life due to how miserable they as people)
Hope it tanks so they can fire leslye headland

Disney: "We don't know where we went wrong..."
Fans: "That's the problem."
With Ahsoka, there's a built in dedicated fan base. Acolyte doesn't have that.
Respectfully. Acolyte is a soulless rehash of a fundamental misunderstanding of the source.

It's sad that Star wars has gone down hill. And it's all thanks to Disney. They produced some good shows, Andor, Ahsoka and Mandalorian from what I have heard and seen, but. They are really killing the fan base, and it shows. I have been a star wars fan for years, and even this just makes me sick. George, We need you back man. Disney is literally ruining the love us fans have for star wars
I wonder why
Pretty obvious Disney is pumping out slop daily because they know people will still watch it. Less time means less polish/good writing and more money. People were gonna get fed up eventually and Disney is just saying what people want to hear in regards to the shows.
I wonder why...
Yeah no cameos & completely different setting in Star Wars, I wonder why indeed (numbers are actually good given those circumstances).
@@reddishcarp1237 No cameos and a different setting...YEAH, sure, THAT is the problem lol

I actually enjoyed the first 2 episodes, shame it went this way, if all the remaining episodes are as good as the first 2(doubtful) it may be able to scrape its way back. I know for many this episode was it though and they are done with it.
Yeah I only watched it because of curiosity. People seemed so ready to hate it so I was curious to see if the response would be appropriate to the show. Now that I have an inkling just how large the Disney hater crowd is I'm not too interested in the show. I will watch the next episode though because I want to see Mae fight the wookie. The fight scenes have been the best thing in this easily.
I didn’t realize it was an end credits song.. thought it was in the show haha this is fine imo
If you’re getting upset at the end credits music you’re complaining too much. When we get amazing end credits music it’s amazing but that’s usually not the case so why is this any different
The only reason anyone is watching it is to dunk on how terrible it is. It's a gold mine for youtube content creators! haha!
Personally, I'm loving this show, and think it's the most well-made Disney SW outside of Andor and Rogue One. I understand and agree with a lot of the criticisms of Disney SW, but with this show, it just seems like people had already made up their minds, and are nitpicking and overreacting to so-called lore-breaking (of which I've seen absolutely nothing that even challenges the lore/canon, let alone breaks it).
I think it's really sad that people are, IMHO, not even giving the show a chance. I feel like it could be Andor-level good, and people would still be bashing it.
...IMHO.
sorry, no. this show has precisely 1 engaging element, namely its murdery mystery told via unreliable POV. that nominally interesting premise is *completely* undermined by the introduction of literal mind control. the writing on the wall is clear : whatever lingering questions you have about who did what and why, will be explained in part or in full with "LOL HYPNOTIZED"
I always like seeing Andor getting its much deserved appreciation, but it definitely does not deserve to be compared to this show. They are not in the same league, ballpark, zip code or hemisphere.
@@xtrafunk Well said
they should be watching xena
Some good news that this mess is slowing down makes me happy to see, I got burned big time with The Galaxy Far Far Away with the Sequel Trilogy, with the Last Jedi on how that ruined Star Wars let alone Lucasfilm for me, I don't want to waste my time or my money again on something that has high odds of being bad, the Acolyte has decent fight scenes but everything else is a mess, not enough to carry that series.
I really do hope that this and whatever slop Dosney farts out ends up putting them negatively in the financial department so maybe they'll actually try, I just hope it's not too late. Again George Lucas has a lot of stocks of Disney if I recall which was part of the Disney buyout, so if Lucas snaps well he can hit the nuclear option.
Maybe, just maybe 🤔 people are getting sick and tired of terrible writing and scene making. "The power of 1 2 and 3" bullshit has to be one of the most asinine scenes I've ever seen, like it's one of those scenes where it hurts to watch

The story for the show so far is kind of not great, i’m hoping it gets better because the season isn’t over and it’s not really fair to judge the show until the season is over but it seems pretty cooked to me. The characters are just not interesting enough for me to care about the mystery they have going on with it.

Tbf, Ahsoka is to a lot of people Rebels season 5 but in live action, and I think Ahsoka S2 is going to be amazing, as well as the rest of the acolyte, might be an unpopular opinion but it seems to me like a faster paced version of Andor
It been 3 episodes 🤦♂️🫠
They were tryna sabotage the show even before it was released. It's the bitter bunch's narrative in the lead right now but just watch and be candid. That's about all we can do.
And? People stick around and even praise slow build-up in shows when it's done correctly, like with Game of Thrones which is longer and far more subtle in dialogue, and Andor if we want to keep this to Star Wars. There's being slow paced and nuanced, and then there's being slow paced because there's barely any going on, barely anything worthwhile anyway.

Don’t worry guys if they are more diverse and inclusive and throw more money into the giant money pit, they will somehow become profitable, remember step one take an existing IP with a massive fan base and run it into the ground, step two… step three profit.
This show, and the zealot extremist in control of Star Wars has utterly destroyed any interest I have in Star Wars anymore. I never missed a video from Eck or Generation Tech, and I can’t even bring myself to watch half the videos anymore
I have seen lots of critique on this show, some of which is pretty good and on point - BUT what greatly irritates me are people who slip in and insinuate there would be 'lesbian propaganda', an 'agenda' or things like that.
These two queer characters and this particular characteristic were not even that central in themselves, compared to other points, e.g. how the twins were created, or the age of Ki Adi Mundi... They feature in one episode.
The drama around this feels unproportional, and aside from valid critique towards the show, it makes me wonder if some people are simply trying to spread hate against us queer folks under the guise of commentary.
I have disneyplus. After I watched episode 1 I rather downloaded the rest of it just to show disney how bad it is.
Now we have a wonderful comparison between the show written by an experienced, talented team ('Andor') and the show made by activists (guess which one :)).
I get what you’re trying to say, but are you seriously suggesting a show as blatantly anti fascist and anti colonialist as Andor wasn’t also made by activists? Good writers can be activists too, in fact that often makes their media more meaningful.
@@saucevc8353 Didn't found anything anti-fascist and anit-colonialist in Andor. You try to name things Andor is about using very narrow terms that fit only to short period of time in the history. According to creator it is about rebellion. From the show we know that it is rebellion against dictatorial power which slowly takes freedom from everyone. Such dictatorships were not only fascist, but also communist, monarchist or just without any -ism. Also conquest of other cultures to rob their wealth or make them part of your empire is much longer then age of colonialism started slightly more then 500 years ago. Such conquests were done already thousands of years ago. They were done by people on every continent. There is huge difference between show creators who base their creation on history to use things which were happening over and over in the past and between bunch of activists without any good knowledge and understanding. So yeah, for activist Andor can be anti-fascist and anit-colonialist because activist mind is very narrow and he knows only this slogans and do not know that both fascism and colonialism are just episodes in history of dictatorships and conquests done by people who desired wealth or power.
@@wojtek1582 A huge part of Andor’s plot is about a large technologically advanced empire colonizing and oppressing a planet of tribal natives … yes conquest isn’t unique to colonialism but this is such an obvious allegory.

the spike in viewership was caused by conservative hate trains

I tend to agree with the fanbase about the bad quality of Disney SW products, specially its trilogy; however, in this case, I'm on the opposite side. This shows, so far, it's *truly* good. It is rich in themes, presents new perspectives, there are questions to be solved.
I'd like to see where it goes. It could turn out really bad, of course, but anyone who watches it with an open mind will find it not only entertaining, but that it enriches the SW world.
I wouldn't call it truly good by any means. Maybe mediocre. Too much clunky dialogue, bad directing/acting, stupid moments etc. but yeah, it's themes and main plot does seem to be functioning thus far.
@@Juel92 You're right, I'm exaggerating when I say 'truly'. I got carried away because I think it's getting way more hate tahn it deserves.
Acting could be better (though that's a critique that could be made of any SW product) and some situations are indeed clunky. To be concrete unlike every other comment, I'm referring to ep. 2 where 'someone gets to its destiny faster than others' (trying to avoid spoilers).
But overall I think the show is interesting.

Don't hate watch, don't even talk about it. Ignore this dumpster fire of a show so it can starve and die. That's how you get shows kicked off of streaming services.
I hate how completely impenetrable this community is, it's so hard to tell what's slop and what's good
Didn’t even watch the first two fully…
No surprise there
I tried watching it but it feels too much like bad fan fiction using elements taken from the Clone Wars TV series.
There is a good story with potential and with a talented writer and showrunner, it could have been good. Instead, we have a "mystery thriller" that shows the audience nearly everything, and thanks to poor pacing and poor execution it feels like a cheap copy of what's come before.
For example; The head witch explains how the thread is different from the force, how they don't use it like a blunt instrument like the Jedi. But then immediately uses the force push technique like any other force user in a competition of pretty much brute force. Compare this to the Nightsisters who used the Force in such a unique way.
I gave it a chance and didn't enjoy the first 2 episodes, I only watched episode 3 because of the word on the internet.
Should be called the Crapolyte
When you try your hardest to deconstruct what people like in favor of an unpopular clearly biased format is anyone surprised at falling viewing, and who the hell still has Disney+ now? This garbage will never be considered canon even in twenty years.
It's terrible.... So terrible... I just don't get how they thought it wouldn't be..
Sleep.
Have you ever hear of the tragedy of Disney Star Wars?
I rlly hope some kind of protest against bad movies start. Let’s all just stop watching new Star Wars movies/shows. I’m sure the fall of Disney will be a lot more entertaining than anything else they make
People don’t like this quality of writing and production
Bro how tf they fail this shit. Like I forgot it was Star Wars. This can’t even be called Star Wars the jedi used the saber 2 times. And one of them was so they could see in a cave. The recent episode was completely shit.
That they don't use the sabers a lot is like the best part. The Jedi are about the force, not lightsabers you absolute child.
@@Juel92 ik but there hasn’t been a single real fight scene and yet they make some cool bad ass sith and they don’t even show him besides that very small scene for him to say few words and there aren’t barely any episodes left. So stop calling me a child when I just want to see classic Star Wars action
@@jordcoh7722 No I'm def gonna call people saying "more lightsabers for no other reason than I find them cool" children. Not even as an insult but as a fact.
Some of the most woke and trashy writing I have ever seen, not to mention the cringy interviews
Woke Token Star Wars full of token actors and bad ones at that. What a disaster.
In terms of quality, acolyte has no quality. It doesn't piss me off but it's simply not my thing and especially in a world where star wars as a franchise has been milked dry.
