"The Acolyte" bait and switch angered some, but many more kept watching. That's why it works

Often these media analysis have the same energy as a kid trying to hit the word count on an essay. Just babbling for the sake of it because Salon needs a Star Wars article this week.

I'd say it's just a click bait title. I guess they're referring to the fact that Carrie-Ann Moss dies within the first 10 minutes of the first episode and people didn't immediately turn it off lol

Better is such a low bar. It's going to be hard for this show to be worse, as there are no established characters to ruin. Except Yoda. And Darth Plagueis maybe. But it's far from a good show, as far as I'm concerned.

Agree with you point on how EVERYTHING I see about this show is extreme. Just trying to get rage clocks... Ep3 RuInEd sTaRWaRS... What I have seen is a LOT of glaring holes that I feel like they have left there on purpose, and once the show shifts to a non-Osha recollection I think we will get a lot of info.

I'm enjoying even after they apparently killed and destroyed the mutilated corpse of Star Wars... But I must have missed that part.

Maybe she comes back even more powerful after being stuck down?

I wouldn’t be surprised if we see more of her in flashback scenes later in the season. Some bad juju went down with her and the other three Jedi on the Acolyte’s hit list, and I’m betting we’ll get to see some of that bad juju.

I mean, you do you, our time is precious and there’s no point wasting it. But I enjoyed the first two episodes and am looking forward to the rest.

Edit: You sure you don’t just want more Carrie-Ann Moss because of the similarity in name to firemoss? C’mon Teft, you’re better than that.

What about the trailer made you think she wasn't one of the murdered Jedi at the center of the shows plot? Was it the extensive time in the trailer of her fighting the titular murderer?
