Since our June relaunch, we've been eagerly anticipating discussing this new Star Wars series. Now that we've seen the entire first season, it's time to share our insights.
In this episode, we'll explore the immense potential we saw in "The Acolyte" and how, despite its promising elements, it ultimately fell short.
From intriguing characters and plot lines to epic battles, we'll break down what worked and what missed the mark.
Nate’s summary of Darth Plagueis' appearance in the season finale perfectly captures our sentiment: we were so close to what we hoped for, yet it slipped away.
We’ll discuss what hindered the series, and consider if certain changes, like reordering key scenes or a different release format, could have made a difference. Despite our disappointment, we’re committed to a thorough examination of "The Acolyte" to appreciate its nuances.
Tune in throughout August for a complete breakdown, weekly recaps, and deep dives.
