[SPOILER] REVEALED: THE ACOLYTE - What's Next? Finale Review and Reaction

Why is Maude nitpicking every little thing? Like I don't get her complaint about the helmet scene in the beginning. There were never any rules saying that the person using the helmet can't use the force on other people. In fact, Qimir does exactly that. It just prevents other force users from entering your head, not from you entering someone else's head. Or complaining about Yoda at the end? He's alive during that period, one of the masters, is a fan favorite, and is a good character to tease for the next season as he can provide guidance for Venestra. I'm sorry I just hate the automatic kneejerk negativity.

Counterpoint to one of Maude’s arguments: Casual viewers don’t know that’s Plaugueis, because they don’t know who he is. They don’t have to. They just have to know there’s an even creepier guy lurking behind the scenes. It’s a thread to follow when and if the story continues.

Am I the only one that felt heartbroken for Osha when she bled the crystal? It was like watching her lose her soul.

This feels like they are upset every storyline wasn’t finished. While ignoring the fact that it’s a TV show trying to create long term storylines if you finish season 1 of any show with every answer why would you want to watch a second season?

I don't really think it was necessary to write in Osha's "anger" or "hatred" into the show. As someone who has to mask a majority of myself, I know firsthand what's it like to have to act like everything is okay, all the time. Which is the position that Osha has ALWAYS been in, from the first episode. She didn't want to be a witch and was never pious enough to be a Jedi. It's a kind of a Goldilocks situation. The Stranger was just the right person to draw out Osha's true potential.

24:21 Why would they formally introduce Darth Plagueis and tell us his origin story on top of the current Acolyte story in the first season? They gave us a glimpse of the ACTUAL bad guy and will show us more if we get season 2

Yay, another episode of "Let's Spoonfeed Maude!"

I just wish...Maude would address her nit-pickiness, it would have made her complaints more tolerable

I feel like everyone is forgetting the point that to the rule of two is secrecy. For Qimir to just announce himself as sith goes against everything he apparently seeks. He said "You would call me a sith....." because a jedi would. I don't think he is an apprentice. He is a fallen Jedi who continued training in secret. If that is Plageus then he would still be Tenebris's apprentice scoping for Cortosis and finds Qimir.

Peeps we criticize films for feeding us answers as we are dumb. When a show lets us figure out that that OSHA is struggling and will make the turn now is a problem that they didn’t esplain this?

Starwars fan 2022 "Andor is well written but so boring there are no light sabers or jedi! I just want cool light saber fights, screw the story." Starwars fan 2024 " the Acolyte is crap worst star wars ever the storyline makes no sense but wow are the lightsaber fights so cool!"

I was pretty sure the saber Osha bled WAS Sol's saber. You mention it would be cool if it was... I am quite sure it was. His was the only blue saber in that fight, and we SAW IT start blue, and turn red when she turned it on after that.

Was Maude up to Write and Direct this season and didn't get it? Why the salt? Still love the content!

I get its not the best but Muade is maaaaad the show is like a 7 - 7.5/10. If he can use the force to see while in it I think the cortosis just stops mind reading

I just feel like there is at least 2 episodes missing from the show

I think Maude is overly negative - seems like she’s looking for reasons not to like it as much. Causes inaccuracies. For example she stated she wanted more emotion when Osha turned like Anakin. But there was none at his turn. No yelling and screaming when he turned and killed Windu, or the younglings or when he first arrived on Mustafar. It was actually very similar until he faced Obiwan.

You guys are assuming a lot and running with it as facts. Osha is the acolyte, clearly. Qimir is likely venamis, a sith apprentice. An apprentice would seak an acolyte to overthrow the sith master. Plagueis is likely also a sith apprentice in this timeline under darth tenebrous. Why should they reveal everything within season 1 if they're pushing for a season 2..?

I hope season 2 opens with the reveal that its actually Yaddle shes speaking to

New drinking game…drink when Maude says, “What would have been…”

The moral of the story is that Osha wanted a lightsaber without being a Jedi.
