My opinions on it are the storytelling was terrible, Sol (and a lot of the other characters but especially Sol) was uninteresting with not great acting, the two flashback episodes were unnecessary, one of the reasons for the massacre on Brendok being a Jedi was homesick was awful, Yoda's appearance in the finale seemed liked a cynical move to try to get a second season, I thought the final episode made The Stranger look weak and undermined him a bit, I would have preferred Osha killed Mae when she was passed the lightsabre, and it was just dull overall. Episode 5, however, was absolutely fantastic and there were glimpses of other great things. The potential for season 2 to be really good was there but the potential for season 1 to be good was also there but wasn't delivered so I had no faith the 2nd season would either.
I am a huge Star Wars fan, I really enjoyed Boba Fett, Obi Wan, and the other series but Acolyte was more of a burden to watch. I watched it all because because I'm a huge Star Wars fan and I wanted it to be good, it just wasn't. I would have loved to see more of The Stranger and Darth Plagueis though.
