Was this the one everyone thought was boring? Or was it The Acolyte? Or the most recent season of The Mandalorian?

I do like me some Star Wars, but it's feeling like we're being oversaturating us with shows.

oversaturating

8 episodes every six months is oversaturation?

  • Skeleton Crew, December 2024
  • The Acolyte, June 2024
  • Ahsoka, August 2023
  • The Mandalorian Season 3, March 2023

The fact that there is a constant stream of star wars content is oversaturation in itself.

Star wars Episode 4 ist 125 min long. One Episode of A Life Action Series is c.a. 40 min. They are basicly releasing 2 1/2 movies every 6 months.

The first two episodes of Ahsoka were a bit ponderous, but I think it really picked up after that.

Everyone hated The Acolyte, but I really thought it was pretty decent and creative. The usual contingent of "woke haters" make it difficult to separate legit criticism (and to be sure it's definitely not perfect) from the usual hate-fans. The bad guy was again the best part of the show (as it should be) but he was really only in a couple of episodes.

Most recent season of Mando was okay. Not as good as the first two but way better than Boba Fett.

Problem is, though, that some of the hate fans have some valid points for the wrong reasons.

For example, it does feel a lot like the writers are ticking boxes. They have the usual Star Wars tropes, but also the "diversity" check boxes. It feels very obvious that there's the orphan, here's the misunderstood genius, here's the queer character, here's the obvious callback to casual fans, etc. etc.

You'll have your haters for everything deemed woke, those are idiots, but having formulaic, not very organic stories isn't exactly great.

I found a lot to like in The Acolyte. It wasn't top notch Star Wars content, but it deserved a better reception than it got.

We can only hope that they don't make the next season of Andor until they fix whatever flavorless fuckery is afoot in their cash machine...

I guess people like Ahsoka but I thought it was boring.

Acolyte was ridiculous but I liked this one.
