New Star Wars series The Acolyte (11 Viewers)

bad writing

There was also some bad writing in it that breaks canon. Ki-Adi-Mudi was in this episode and he has a very famous line in Star Wars episode one The Phantom Menace saying that the Sith have been extinct for a millennia.

If he is around to witness the existence of this sith that trained Mae, then the line he says from Episode 1 makes no sense.

Well, we don't know that this is a "Sith", to be fair
We also know the Sith being extinct was BS when he said it. A lot of this content from pre-New Hope is specifically telling us just how much hubris the Jedi had and how it led to their downfall. A Sith Lord existing literally under their noses being a prime example.

Edit: I'm not necessarily saying you're wrong, but I don't think this is firmly breaking canon

i'm sorry you guys aren't enjoying it, though it really doesn't seem that hard to enjoy

I'm enjoying it and that's all that matters to me.

I'm trying not to think about it to hard, but red lightsaber means sith. I'm sure there a few exceptions, but that is the rule. You assume the current Jedi Order at least learns that.

The red saber is made via bleeding the crystal, and that is a very dark side thing.

Bleeding

Bleeding was the process that a dark side adept used by way of the dark side of the Force to bend a kyber crystal to their will, turning it red. It was possible for some light side users to purify corrupted crystals, which would bring them back to the light side and change their color to white...

Of course this will make sense, if Mr. Grins kills all the Jedi.

Some years ago my wife and I went to this restaurant. For dessert, my wife ordered peach cobbler. The dessert came with no peach.

Hm, yea, you aren’t wrong there. Maybe we get some scene hastily edited into the last episode to fix it

How were the shoes?

Not calling out anyone here
And while I’m quick to play the card, I think this is only a part of some of the dissatisfaction
That said

Since the release of the show the only negatives that I have seen have been against the production side of the series and not against the per-production DEI drama. I don't know why people default to the "Sweaty Star Wars Fan" stigma when they defend the series. It is like defaulting to "Trump Supporter" or "It's Joever" memes. The main characters could be The Muppets and the production side would still be suffering. I am going to try and give it a chance because any fan of the franchise should want to see any branch succeed. When does Andor Season 2 come out?

I enjoyed it, so here's my wild theory...

What if, and I know it's a yuge bigly stretch, but hey, it's my sperler tag and I'll do what I want. What if one of the members of the coven survived somehow (namely the non-bio mom), and decided to immerse herself into the dark side of the force for revenge w/o necessarily becoming a sith, she went solo since she already is force or thread (or whatever it was called)-sensitive. She became basically the equivalent of a Sith in power, was able to turn a crystal red, and began to bide her time. She tracks down Mae after several yrs once she's powerful enough and trains her via zoom or long distance or however she did it so Mae wouldn't find out her ID. As part of the murder 4 Jedi's Mae revenge tour, she hopes to draw out Osha somehow knowing that she would get blamed for Indara's death since Mae was considered dead and she wants to have both girls under her control. The minute it (she?) tilted its (her?) head without killing Osha outright is what made this left-field theory spring into my head along with its (her?) somewhat slight build. Just my 2 pesos...

How were the shoes?

The shoes were fine... The Acolyte is the peach cobbler in the menu. The lack of peach in the peach cobbler is the lack of Sith/dark side in The Acolyte. The pastry may have been ok, but it was no peach cobbler.
