I agree. I frankly think the show was quite bad in terms of tone, cinematography, and unfortunately acting. It all felt kinda cheap and poorly planned to me. I say this as someone has genuinely enjoyed all of the other Star Wars shows (yep, even Obi-Wan). But I also found it interesting and really enjoyed the fight scenes and the new yet familiar setting. Regardless of my opinion of the technical side of the production, I absolutely would have watched another season to see where the story was headed.
Agreed. Just like so many other franchise series right now, that includes, Star Wars (case in point, Acolyte), Star Trek (Picard series, except the last season maaaybe) and the Marvel universe (Secret Wars anyone?), it started strong in the first few episodes. Then after we get to the half time in the season it drops off hard and we see weird resolutions to plot points or parts of the plot do not get any meaningful explanation or ending.
I am sad to see Acolyte might have been cancelled for “woke agenda reviews” when it should have been cancelled for bad writing.
