This is the way. - Disney gives them a ridiculous budget to achieve said goal(s). - Show comes out and it’s yet another steaming turd. - Fans voice their frustration with Disney’s poor track record/methods over the last few years, and rightfully so. -Creators call fans bigots. - Apologists run in to make excuses, feelings are hurt. Boo hoo. Silver Surfer and Larryw7 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

An average episode of the A-Team hung together better than this show. Larryw7, media_junkie and I like pie 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No one really cares about your opinion at that point, when you're so closed minded. There's no logical reasoning. "I hate Disney Star Wars" just because, isn't valid. Ahsoka was a hard 8.5/10 but you seem so sour, I'd suggest skipping any SW future content forever. Awesome rebuttals. Great way to debate. Just castaway all of my points. All of that aside. Star Wars The Acolyte is heading towards being the lowest Disney+ show of all time, and it deserves it. Currently sitting at 25% on RT.

I like pie Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 (edited) You're delusional. No one cares about audience ratings before a show is complete. Tonight's episode was the best yet. Episode 4 is even better. Have you tried Star Trek:Lower Decks? It might be more your speed. Edited June 12 by I like pie jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Silver Surfer Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Enough with the female dominate lead stuff, please, no one cares. Why is this so important of a message/theme here that it has to be pointed out over and over again? I couldn’t get through the whole episode as they expanded on an already garbage plot line (that’s actually bordering on creepy). What made this the best episode so far? Actually don’t bother answering this series is junk. NewWorldOrder, Microchip, I like pie and 1 other 2 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually don’t bother answering this series is junk. You have the attention span of a 5 year old. To be transparent, I completely despised the sequels films. You can look up my comments here about it. I'm in no way a Disney fan boy but to see people judging a show two episodes in an eight show series for no other reason than they just hate Disney(or women?), makes me sick to my stomach. Stop whining and watch something else. jsilverjanet 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mr_highgrade Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I finally finish watching the first two episodes a couple of days ago and I fell asleep again. I didn't even know that tonight was the third episode. I guess I really don't care anymore. The worst part is that my four boys feel the same. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Broke as a Joke Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 Gave the 3rd episode a chance. Why was it considered so awful that the girl didn't want to stay part of the lesbian witch tribe? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why was it considered so awful that the girl didn't want to stay part of the lesbian witch tribe? Only thing I can think is there is some dark side stuff at play that the coven did not want any hint of leaking out. The twins were Spoiler Created Which strongly, at least to me, points to Darth Plagueis (Palpatine’s master) being involved. If so, it’s possible one of them was supposed to be his apprentice at some point, and he wanted his choice Edited June 12 by awakeintheashes I like pie and jsilverjanet 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1Cool Posted June 12 Share Posted June 12 I just finished Ep 1 & 2 and I enjoyed them. The fight scenes were well done and I didn't feel bored in either episode. It has a ways to go before I would consider it great but I'm enjoying it so far. I like pie 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the general consensus, across the board, so far. I'm curious though, how many critics go back and change their reviews if it turns out to be "Just ok". They only got to see the first four episodes and gave it rave reviews. I really don't understand why reviews are given before watching the entire show.
