No Season 2 for the new Star Wars series.
August 19, 2024
It is being reported by Deadline that The Acolyte has been cancelled by Disney+ after just one season. The news comes a month after the Star Wars series wrapped its 8-episode freshman run.
The move does not come as a complete surprise, as the show's high production costs would need a sizeable audience to justify a renewal. And while its premiere did draw the platform's largest viewership for a new series this year, its early success was short-lived, and the full season numbers were estimated to be low compared to other shows in the Star Wars universe.
The Acolyte is set during the final days of the High Republic era, about 100 years before the events of Star Wars: Episode I. In the show, a former Padawan reunites with her Jedi Master to investigate a series of crimes. But in a galaxy of shadowy secrets and emerging dark-side powers, the forces they confront are more sinister than they ever anticipated.

“Truth”:
Yeah. The world wants more “woke”. That explains why “woke” always fails, and the “woke” ALWAYS go broke.

I guess I could have done without the woke stuff but worse than that was the overall story. I struggled to finish it. I would have actually enjoyed more of a story about the Jedi in that era themselves than Mae.

This show wasn't woke enough. If you want REAL Americans to like you, you gotta be woke. Every freedom lover knows that either be Woke OR be broke. You can't be both. When will tv learn to be more woke like the world wants.
Only trolls say otherwise.

Show was a woke joke that had no respect for Star Wars. Never expected it to make it to season 2. Bad story, bad acting and shoved full of wokeness.

@Z maybe the show is bad because they they are too busy trying to be "woke" and not busy enough making it good.
