Part 2/10:
The Disney+ series The Acolyte faced a harsh and overwhelmingly negative reception from viewers and critics alike, marking it as arguably the worst-performing Disney Star Wars project in recent memory. Despite some niche audiences enjoying the show, the general sentiment was dismal, leading to its cancellation. Rather than accept the reality—an acknowledgment of the show's failure—some fans attempted to rally support through petitions and social media campaigns, but these efforts largely fell flat.
Disappointed fans did not just stop at cancellations; they turned their frustration inward and outward. Instead of focusing solely on the show, some began targeting critics and content creators who openly voiced skepticism or criticism of Disney’s handling of the Star Wars franchise.
