Lo and behold, after weeks of absence The Acolyte did handle to enter the Nielsen Streaming Charts for unique exhibits with its final episode. The numbers are nonetheless nothing Lucasfilm might be glad about. In reality, the numbers are abysmal. Click through for all the details!
The sequence is as useless as Sol
The eighth and remaining Acolyte episode managed to interrupt into the highest 10 unique exhibits streaming charts, in tenth place, with a awful 335 million minutes. The finale was virtually 47 minutes lengthy (with credit), which gives you an thought about how unhealthy the numbers are.
To place issues in context right here is my up to date chart with the finale viewership numbers for all of the Marvel and Star Wars exhibits the place we’ve the information. Absent from this chart is Echo. All Echo episodes have been dumped on the identical day and the numbers have been a catastrophe, the present was on the charts for one week. Echo is – with out contest – the least watched Marvel / Star Wars sequence on Disney+. Its solely saving grace is that it was made on a budget for $40 million.
However the place does The Acolyte slot in? How does it evaluate?
Right here is the up to date chart with The Acolyte now included!

The Acolyte is useless final. As talked about above Echo’s viewership is even decrease, however this sequence can’t be in contrast as a result of the present had no finale viewership numbers, all episodes have been launched on the identical day, as a result of Marvel and Disney determined to get it over with as shortly and painlessly as potential (they knew Echo can be a catastrophe).
However now this. Even Ms Marvel, the – till The Acolyte – least watched “correct” sequence with a weekly launch schedule, beats The Acolyte.
Anybody nonetheless delusional about The Acolyte getting a season 2 ought to look lengthy and arduous at this chart. A $180+ million price range is sweet for final place. That is 58% of Ahsoka’s viewership and 27.5% of the Mandalorian S3 finale. And after we evaluate it to the Luke Skywalker season 2 finale it’s simply 23.2%. So greater than three quarters of the potential viewers determined to not watch the Acolyte sequence finale. Briefly: Lucasfilm managed to lose 75% of its potential viewers with this present. And the finale has among the finest numbers for The Acolyte. Episodes 4-7 had even worse numbers. So unhealthy they by no means even entered the charts.
The truth that Ms Marvel has not acquired an order for season 2 (and sure, this present has followers too) ought to give Acolyte followers a touch.
And to place issues in perspective some extra: The Acolyte has 335 million viewing minutes. The Boys has 1,329 million and Home of the Dragon 1,107 million. The Mandalorian S2 finale (the one with Luke) had 1,336 million minutes, Mandalorian S3 nonetheless 1,012 million, even Andor had 674 million minutes, which put it forward of Ahsoka even, which, till now, had the least watched Star Wars sequence finale on Disney+.
And with that I hope we by no means want to speak about The Acolyte once more.
