When Sol first saw the children he also saw Mother Korill, who was very harsh with them, then when he sees them with Mother Aniseya, she attacks them, throwing them to the hard floor, then she attacks them again, but this time Mae is able to protect herself and Osha. Then Mother Aniseya invades Torbin's mind with some voodoo force, plus Mother Korill is again being very aggressive and threatens the Jedi multiple times. Then Mother Korill takes an attack stance with her spear, and Mother Aniseya does some more voodoo force shit, and Sol sees Mae starting to turn into dark smoke. How is he, or the other Jedi not supposed to think that these witches are bat-shit crazy and are endangering the children. Child services would have been all over that shit. I know the writers are trying to make us hate the Jedi and sympathize with the witches, but my question is, why? Why are they painting the Jedi as assholes, and the witches are misunderstood women who are being persecuted by the Jedi? The Jedi were looking into the convergence of the force, that's the only reason they were there. The witches fled their previous planet due to persecution, but we don't know who were persecuting them, or what their reasons were, because we are not told or shown. The witches are basically Doctor Frankenstein, and the Jedi are the villagers with torches and pitchforks, and Mae and Osha are the creature. Is it really that blatant a rip-off?

I honestly believe if you gave ChatGPT the right prompts and stuff to base on you could write a better Star Wars show than the Acolyte. Edit: So I did that very thing. I told chat GPT to write me a Star Wars show that is machiavellian and feels like game of thrones about a brother and sister trying to succeed their father. These are just a few lines of the many it gave me: “The Sith thrive on ambition, on cunning. The Empire we have built stands on the precipice of glory, but only if we are willing to grasp it." "Kael, you will journey to Coruscant. The heart of the Republic. Plant seeds of dissent. Divide their unity." Take those 2 lines and extrapolate that into a whole show with a Sith master and apprentice and that would be an amazing show!

Rules of telepathic battle at 51:11 Steph. O get the confusion, but it was basically this: 1. Koril moved the witches to the back room 2. The witches linked together and controlled Kelnacca; we can assume that is no easy feat because Kelnacca is a Master Jedi and these witches are individually weaker than Mother Aniseya, who has shown to at least be more powerful than 2 together 3. With resistance from Kelnacca, Indara pushing back is too much for them 4. Indara isn't targetting their physical location necessarily, she's disrupting their circuit that is connected in Kelnacca's mind 5. Feedback short circuits the brains of the witches joined in the circuit 6. This either knocks them out or fries their brains (i.e., unconscious or brain dead) - not Indara's intention, but the consequence of being forced out If they weren't dead then (which I don't personally think was the case) they are left incapacitated in a collapsing, burning fortress, so they're dead after the fact, all because of Jedi interference, so Indara would still feel bad, and be tempted to covet this up due to culpability in the situation. None of that is an endorsement of the show though, just that this is how the sequence plays out.

Thank you! I felt like this with his unexplained sudden attachment to Osha. Like how does that not come across as creepy as all get out when he’s just obsessed with this young girl and wants to take her away from the only home she’s ever known? And the way he’s emotionally manipulating her it almost reads like grooming but best case scenario it gives icky savior complex vibes. Without any sort of context as to why he felt that way it didn’t make me sympathize with his character at all.

It’s like they went in trying to make a YA SW fan fiction film. So many things throughout the series are things we don’t see in SW but they sprinkle them throughout this show. Yord being shirtless to appeal to that fandom, The Stranger(Smilo Ren) going nude into the ocean while Osha watches him, Aniseya in Torbin’s mind giving seductive speech giving any of his “desires”, and that song that sounds like 50 Shades of Grey song at the end. Obviously the writing, directing, performances, and lack of emotional connection to any of these characters are a way bigger issue but I just wanted to point to this aspect of the show.

The way the episodes are named: Lost/Found, Revenge/Justice, Destiny, Day, Night, Teach/Corrupt, Choice; some of them appear to have been a single episode split and/or moved. I think Destiny/Choice and Day/Night were meant to be just 2 episodes and they split them up. Which makes me wonder if they had a different ending in mind and they cut it and then split those episodes in the edit to fill out the now empty run time. It feels like 4 of these episodes should have been 2 and we actually only saw 5 episodes and are missing 2 episodes that were cut.

I think this exposes the problem with Rotten Tomatoes for television shows. Often critics will submit their score based on the first few episodes that are screen for them. For the Acolyte it was between the first 2 and 4 episodes. However I dont beleive a critic can change their initial score when later episodes air should they change their mind or submit a seperate review for later episodes on the site. . So the Acolyte is still 83% postiive on Rotten tomatoes, based on many of the initial reviews from critics being luke warm but giving it the benefit of the doubt that it would improve. However it feels a large portion of the critics who intially gave it postive reviews now are overall negative on the show. It would be like submitting a postive review for the first act of a movie, and then being unable to re submit once you have seen the rest of the movie and overall it sucked.

The last numbers for this show I saw where 25% of Ahsoka's and that was after the first couple of episodes. The numbers have been going down. It's not doing well. Disney has been doing that hyper specific qualifiers to make the show seem like the viewership is strong. It reminds me of those incredibly specific stats ESPN rolls out during game to make a feat seem special when it isn't.

Episode 6, and Episode 7 should of been like the first 2 episodes we saw. Then you reintroduce Older Osha, Then you do May killing the Jedi. Through out the so as it is going in this scenario we get flashbacks of Mae and Osha's perspective. But we the audience know what really happened. The bring in Qimir. Because 7 sets up the "cover up." you bring in old Osha and Mae, and establish their ignorance of the real events, and you can continue with this mistaken identity situation. Qimir, should be in the last 2 episodes. This is already setting up for a 2nd season, so might as well Leave Qimir to the end. Have the big fight and then bring in the rescue team. This the audience can know what has happened, but still has questions that the further episodes can answer. Instead of having 50 different questions in the beginning, and getting half truths, and shotty writing. We should of seen Mother Anisai be the caring mother, and the protective witch later through Mae's and Osha's memories. This also shows that Mae isn't a cold and heartless character, just confused and angry child still. Its maddening to watch this and see that the show is told in reverse order in some spots and others its just twisted and turned to make no sense. And funny enough it would explain Mae's flip flopping, that got no explanation before this. But still nothing explains how stone burns down like its ancient dried out wood! And the Vergence is just ugh. The only good thing I learned in the past 2 episodes is that Qimir is a fallen Jedi, not a Sith.

This goes back to what I found disappointing about the sequel trilogy: too many cooks in the kitchen ... writers and directors who either don't know enough about Star Wars lore -or- are too off the beaten path with their "new vision." I get it; Disney bought Lucasfilm, and George wanted it to be handed over to new, creative talent. Sure. But, you need creatives that keep the stories consistent, giving a little bit of fan service yet can also tell a compelling new story. That's why The Mandalorian and Rebels work: they keep things familiar yet expand on the vision in an intelligent, meaningful way. I'm probably not as angered by The Acolyte as some, but I do agree that there are more disappointments that positives. We'll see what happens in Episode 8, but that's my 2 cents. Keep up the good work, Kristian and team!

I was bored, the whole episode was a rehash but told by the secondary unit shooting it lol. They made it seem in episode 3 like we didn't have all the information...and we basically did... none of the mystery aspects really changed from this... some things had a bit more insight like Osha didn't mean to cause the stone burning fire... but she still did it and just told her sister she was going to kill her lol... there was no mind control or Sith influence for that... How were all the witches killed? I mean I saw it... how were they all killed lol? I know what I'm supposed to understand is they used all their energy controlling Jedi Master Fuzz Ball and when Jedi Master Trinity broke the connection they all died of boredom... but nothing in the show is telling me that I'm filling in their blanks!

I was excited when I heard that Leslye Headland was doing a Star Wars show-- I have never seen her other shows but have heard so many good things about them. I was even more excited that we were going to have a show outside of the movie timeline and go into the past. I just don't know how this happened: was there too much studio interference, if the idea was just bad to begin with, they brought in mediocre writers? Somehow this turned into a mess. The only positive thing that might come out of this is that one day we might hear the inside story of how this happened. That might actually be entertaining.

Disney's Lucasfilm has the incredible problem of not being able to understand that the Force Awakens earned over $2 billion, The Last Jedi dropped by $500 million and then Rise of Skywalker dropped another $500 million making it a $1 billion dollar drop from 7 to 9. They don't realize if those last two movies would have been handled right, all 3 would have made over $2 billion EACH but they just want to say "The movies were $1 billion movies!!!" That is true but again, all 3 COULD have been $2 billion movies had Disney's Lucasfilm just appealed to the whole audience and cared what we all wanted instead of a smaller minority of the base.

Yup worst episode of Star Wars ever. No matter what happens after the first encounter, it was the witches fault that everyone dies. They invaded Torbin’s head first. Mae was literally the one that started the fire and burned everything down, shockingly. No idea how they couldn’t figure out a way to make it so the jedi started the fire and killed everyone, making everything that we have seen like the jedis in hiding or Torbin killing himself make sense. They character assassinated fan favorite Sol making him a seem like a pedo, irrational, emotional, and deciding to let Mae drop to her death. So so dumb
