Some Disney Star Wars fans and industry shills have been quick to tout The Acolyte’s supposed triumph. They point to figures like over 2.7 billion minutes viewed, asserting that this makes it the second most-watched Disney+ series of 2024.

Supporters argue that Disney should have produced a second season, even suggesting that the studio could simply reduce the budget to keep it afloat.
