The Acolyte Officially Biggest Disney Plus Launch Of 2024 With 4.8 Million Views In One Day

https://screenrant.com/star-wars-the-acolyte-premiere-viewership/

The Acolyte is Disney+'s biggest 2024 series debut with 4.8 million views on its first day, hinting at a potential Star Wars franchise resurgence.

Despite mixed fan reactions and review bombing, The Acolyte 's strong premiere numbers challenge claims of Star Wars ' decline under Disney.

The show's success will be key for future Star Wars projects, with the next test being whether it can maintain its initial viewership momentum.

Viewing figures reveal that Star Wars’ latest streaming show, The Acolyte, is Disney+’s biggest streaming release of 2024. Set 100 years before the events of Star Wars: The Phantom Menace, fan reactions to the latest Star Wars show have been notably mixed despite it receiving largely favorable reviews from critics. Continuing to reflect the heavily divided nature of the present-day fandom, The Acolyte has recently experienced review bombing on sites such as Rotten Tomatoes and Metacritic.

Despite this backlash, however, Disney has revealed (via Variety) official viewership data indicating The Acolyte has attracted 4.8 million views in its first day of availability, making it Disney+’s biggest 2024 series debut. By comparison, Marvel’s hit animated series revival X-Men ’97 took five days to reach 4 million streaming views on its own release. With six episodes remaining, The Acolyte will continue to keep airing weekly until July 16.

‘Gayest Star Wars’: Disney’s Amanda Stenberg and Leslye Headland Get Giddy Over How ‘Gay’ New Show Is

https://dailycaller.com/2024/06/06/disnet-gayest-star-wars-amanda-stenberg-leslye-headland-gay-woke-acolyte-agenda-inclusiveness/

Actress Amanda Stenberg and “The Acolyte” creator Leslye Headland bragged about how ultra-woke their show is, in a cringe-worthy interview with The Wrap.

The interview, released Tuesday, featured Stenberg and Headland rejoicing over the wokeness of their own production.

Interviewer Drew Taylor says “this is, I would say, arguably the gayest Star Wars by a considerable margin,” making both women burst into the giggles. He later argues this “was going to be a talking point”

Headland, who says she is part of the LGBTQ community, addressed rumors that the show was pro- LGBTQ+ by saying, “No, I don’t think so, but people have told me it’s the gayest Star Wars and I’m frankly — into it”

Taylor chuckled alongside Stenberg and Headland during the exchange.

Stenberg declared “nerds are gay,” as Headland revealed her excitement over the fact that people had told her “it’s the gayest ‘Star Wars.”

“I think that ‘Star Wars’ is so gay already. I mean have you seen the fits. We’d be like, ‘Look how gay this is.’ And then send each other a reference photo,” Stenberg said.

Headland candidly weighed in with her views on the subject.

“And are you telling me with a straight face that C-3P0 is straight? I think it’s canon that R2-D2 is a lesbian,” she said.

The Holiday Special was on TV in 1978 ffs. Comparing the rating system of today to ratings from 46 years ago is beyond the usual chud level of retardation.

Entertainment was much less fragmented back when the Holiday Special came out. Everyone had access to the same three TV channels. There wasn't really any basic cable channels at the time, let alone streaming services, social media, or the World Wide Web in general. Video games were still at a prototypical rudimentary stage. So of course something that aired 45 years ago over the air for free, at a time where you only had two other channels to watch, would have higher viewership than something debuting today on a paid subscription streaming service, where you have infinite other options of how to occupy your attention.

I don't even like Star Wars. I'm merely pointing out that something that aired at a time when there were only three things to watch on TV (and is free to watch) and the internet didn't really exist to the general public will obviously have more viewers than something coming out now (that you have to pay for to watch) that has infinitely more competition vying for people's attention, no matter how shitty the quality is. It is not an apples-to-apples comparison.

It having less viewers than a show that "every watched cause they didn't have anything else to watch" isn't an argument in the shows favor anon.

You definitely are and you're definitely acting like a pissbaby about it.

Two things: 1
-1883 has more "ratings" than Gunsmoke.
-Two different IP's being released 70 years apart is not same thing as different iterations of the same IP coming out just under 50 years apart, while the latest iteration is being released by THE entertainment corporation of our time and has all of it's advertising support.

There's no explanation here that doesn't spell out the Acolyte being a completely and total bomb, yet another failure-iteration of Disney's woke garbage crusade. In fact it's so bad people genuinely think this might be what causes Disney to shelve Star Wars indefinitely.

You may continue to cope about it though.

>1883 has more "ratings" than Gunsmoke.
No it fucking doesn't. Gunsmoke's lowest Nielsen rated season averaged 11 million viewers. It's highest rated season averaged 18 million viewers, and it spent four consecutive seasons as the number 1 most viewed show on television. It spent 13 of its 20 total seasons on air as a top-10 most viewed show on television. Remember, this is at a time where there were only three total TV channels, and no internet. As for 1883, most streaming services don't announce raw viewership data, but we know its basic cable debut on Paramount Network had like 5 million viewers, and a rerun of the first two episodes like two years later averaged 4 million viewers. I think it's safe to assume more people have access to Paramount Network on their basic cable packages than are subscribed to Paramount+.
>Two different IP's being released 70 years apart is not same thing as different iterations of the same IP coming out just under 50 years apart, while the latest iteration is being released by THE entertainment corporation of our time and has all of it's advertising support.
I don't see how that's relevant to a discussion about raw viewership numbers. The Holiday Special was one of three total things to watch on (free) TV the day it aired. Gunsmoke was one of three total things to watch on (free) TV at the time it was on the air. Whereas 1883 and The Acolyte are on paid streaming services, competing with whatever else is on their respective paid streaming services, plus whatever is on competitors' streaming services, plus whatever is on traditional linear television, plus whatever is on YouTube and Twitch, etc. Media is too fragmented to compare viewership numbers from the pre-internet (hell, pre-cable TV) era to now, where there are infinite number of things to watch. Whether or not they are from the same IP is irrelevant.
Again, this isn't a defense of The Acolyte, or anything Disney has done since buying the Star Wars IP.
