This encapsulates everything wrong with the frothingfash that shit on “woke” media. Gets the name of the show wrong (its called The Acolyte), pulls the “oBJecTiVeLy BaD wRiTiNg” card, dramatically misunderstands every point made in the show and in almost all SW media since the prequels (the Jedi are not a perfect lawful good force, they are deeply arrogant and flawed, also “the thread” is just the force by a different name) and acting like an overall mediocre-to-decent show is the literal worst thing to ever be created when it’s painfully obvious they didn’t even watch it ancrap

if you don’t understand or care about any of this you are blessed smedly-exhausted

    I haven’t watched all of it, but it gets worse after the first couple episodes. Say what you will about the rest of the show, but the writing is not good at all.

      Austin Walker pointed out that it feels like a YA Riverdale kind of thing, and that put me in the right headspace to handle the goofy ass writing.

      I haven’t seen the last episode yet, but the show is just kinda ok I guess. It’s no worse than Obi Wan or Mandolorian S3, but that’s not saying much. It feels like they had too much they want to do with the amount of time they have in the show. I feel like they would have made a better show if they had more episodes to work with or pared it back a bit shrug-outta-hecks
