Season 1 of The Acolytehas been strange.
The production values are great, the performances excellent, the action freakin' awesome.
In other words, we don’t really know what’s actually going on in this series.

But itispossible to fix it.
Look at the company’s track record with Star Wars.
Then, things got dicey.

As individual movies they’re all fine.
And it would be a huge boost for the whole Star Wars franchise if Disney allowed that to happen.
