Fans of “The Acolyte” are trying to grab Disney’s attention before the season finale.
This week, the last episode of “The Acolyte” arrives on Disney+. This series has sparked controversy from outside sources among all the new Star Wars movies and shows. Some people give it negative reviews because of their issues with the story. But for every person who criticizes it, others love it. A positive trend on social media supporting the show has started.
It’s uncertain what will happen next for “The Acolyte.” Unlike “Obi-Wan Kenobi,” it wasn’t advertised as a limited series, leaving the chance for more seasons open. However, there’s been no official word on renewing the show yet. As the first season wraps up, fans rally with #RenewTheAcolyte to show they want a second season.
Advertisement It’s refreshing to see “The Acolyte” gaining attention for positive reasons as fans express their love instead of the negativity filling social media. The show’s audience score on Rotten Tomatoes is much lower than the critics’ score. Such a big difference often happens because of review bombing, where people post negative reviews for reasons unrelated to the show’s quality, even if they haven’t watched it themselves.
EP Leslye Headland‘s venture into the Star Wars universe, “The Acolyte,” offers plenty to enjoy. It takes place during the High Republic era, a new chapter for Star Wars on screen. Some fans are still warming up to the new characters, but many are already big fans. And there’s even excitement about certain actors like Manny Jacinto. Fans of the show come from all over!
Not all “The Acolyte” fans are excited just because of attractive actors. As one user said, many fans want another season because they love the characters and want more stories about them.
We are unsure if “The Acolyte” will get a second season. Its viewership hasn’t been as high as other Star Wars shows like “Ahsoka,” which already has a second season coming. But that doesn’t mean “The Acolyte” doesn’t have good numbers. Disney+ keeps viewership stats private unless they choose to share them, so we don’t know the exact data. Production costs for the show are also just estimates.
The Star Wars fandom is divided over the Amandla Stenberg-led show, but some fans see this as a reason to support it. One fan on Twitter said the show should be renewed to celebrate the positive side of the fandom.
