Statistically, it probably tracks that Rogue One, Andor, and The Acolyte are good simply because eventually something won't suck if you put together the right combination of artists by accident.

The Acolyte

Did you watch it? I certainly wouldn't call it good.

Yeah, I enjoyed it. Far cry from the snoozefests of Boba Fett: Sand Mayor, Obi-Whine, and Mary Elizabeth Winstead's Ass in a Flight Suit.

Where can I find more about "Mary Elizabeth Winstead's Ass in a Flight Suit."?

It's the only compelling part of Ahsoka.

It's rare to see Rosario Dawson's assets eclipsed.

Ray Stevenson's character was worth every second I invested on this show.

Plus I liked the witch stuff and some of the fights were alright.

My feeling is that often these expensive shows tend to become a blob for all in order to reduce the rating for TV14.

I mean, is there such an audience that cares for Ahsoka as a character and is under 18?

[–] SpaceNoodle@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

I just didn't find it compelling, and there were no real stakes.

In contrast, The Acolyte had a few layers and kept bringing up new questions every time one was answered, and kept us on our toes since nobody was wearing plot armor.
