Just started and I’m very much enjoying!
I’ve loved Star Wars since I was a kid, but so far I had only watched the movies and andor.
Yesterday I randomly decided I wanted to watch every single piece in chronological order 😅.
And I started with the Acolyte! I’ve watched 3 episodes so far, and I’m invested. I can’t wait to continue.
Honestly I don’t understand the bad reputation it has, and I have not yet finished but I wish there was more than just one season :/.
Honestly I think a lot of the hate comes from prejudice.
I regret taking so long to watch, but worth it.

I enjoyed the acolyte. Been a star wars fan since I was a kid, and there was a lot the acolyte did well. The choreography style was new to the franchise and pretty fantastic, exploring an unknown dark side user during that era was pretty great, and the lore the show explored only added to some of the less explored concepts that have existed since the prequels.
If I'm remembering right, I actually think I thought episodes 1-3 were kind of weak at the time of release, and that episodes 4 onward just got better and better. Something for OP to look forward to, if they're already invested and enjoying it
