Jeremy is so right. I don’t actually watch Star Wars anymore.

Can’t hear OSHA without thinking of workplace safety. Lol

"What's my motivation?" "The script." "Now this is writing!"

The Acolyte in a nutshell: "They treat it like it's some sort of bulls*** sithcom" - Jeremy Jahns

"You killed my friends!" "Yup." "You killed Yord!" "Uh-huh." "You killed Jecki!" "Yeah, wanna wear my sweet Dark Side helmet?" "Yes, please."

You know it’s a Disney product when they’re not afraid to add a wet shirtless guy as a thirst trap; but simultaneously decide that Leia in a bikini is problematic.

"you could've just had Sol apprehend Mae at the end of the last episode and it would've been the same result" This comment summarizes the whole show 🤣

the worst part is that despite all the "the force is female" BS, they gave the female lead NO agency, both characters she's playing just gets dragged around by other people the whole series and any time they do decide to do something on their own the story just forgets it happened (ie. Mae deciding to surrender to the Jedi)

I feel bad for the people forcing themselves to watch this show. Jeremy, you’re doing the lord’s work

“We dont know because they don’t know because the writers don’t know.” That is Disney’s Star Wars

“we don’t know, because she doesn’t know, because the writers don’t know.” bingo

Fun Fact: Osha and Mae are named after a Canadian boutique soap company. Osha Mae. The more you know.

Jar Jar, all is forgiven

This helmet blocks out everything except the force... and also the force

“Darth Thirst Trap” 😂😂😂

Jeremy is the best Star Wars show airing right now😂

To quote Jeff Goldblum. That is one big pile of acolyte.

Disney: Come to the Dark Side, we have abs

Just met you 5 minutes ago at half price books. Just wanna say thanks for taking time to allowing me to meet you. I'll never look at the cyborg movie the same anymore 😂

All valid points. There is too much convenience. No effort in consequences. No knowledge of time. The twins are all over the place with their arcs.

That scar on his back. A lightsaber couldn't have done this, but maybe... *dundundun*... a whip!

MOM! Star Wars is making Jeremy drink again!!!

That's actually a really good point Jeremy - Mae's infiltration attempt went nowhere. Then again, it brought us Bazil vs Mae! Show didn't have enough budget to show the Wookie fight, instead we got a kung fu beaver.

Jeremy, I think this is one of your best EVER reviews; love the line at 8:47 " ... She forgets what happened ... that day!"

“If we don’t know what we’re doing, the enemy won’t either.” -Leslie Headland

Boromir to the Alcolyte Show Runners: "Give Jeremy's liver a moment for pity's sake!"

Jeremy, you're doing the Lord's work. So glad I've given up on these Star Wars show and I won't forgive Disney for wasting a perfectly fine Manny Jacinto on this.

Sol letting out his emotions and slamming his fist into the table and acting the way he's acting got me thinking he's truly got alternative motives

Turns out....that helmet is OSHA compliant

People don't watch Star Wars they watch videos about SW. So true my friend.

I literally couldn’t bring myself to watch this episode so I came here for the summary! XD thanks man!

Bless you J cause just watching a review about this show is stressful asf already, can't imagine trying to force myself to sit through it

The fact that we’ve seen Jeremy go from slightly optimistic to just downright alcoholism in 6 episodes is impressive. Good on you for not tapping out after episode 0 like most people.

I was afraid of Jeremy's liver but I forgot his brain took just as much damage

Anyone else always have the like button hit before the ad ends on Jeremy's videos? 😂

Yeah, you nailed it all. Venestra's assistant reminds me of Dedra Meera's assistant. And Venestra is starting to remind me of Dedra Meera. They're telling this story like a summer camp counselor telling a ghost story over the fireplace.

You search for logic in this show. Admirable.

The way characters drip-feed us tiny scraps of information and then either walk away or get interrupted by a conveniently timed problem. It allows the writers to spin out short, simple conversations into entire episodes.

I can see by 8th episode Jeremy barely standing up and being super drunk... 😂😂😂

Green Jedi lady is the big bad, she tried to kill apprentice thirst trap with her flexi saber ( back wound ) and he wants revenge through doppelganger no 1

it amazes me how many folks will handwave away bad writing, rather than just call it bad writing.

"Star Wars being the tale of morality. The struggle of good and evil." Was. It was.

That intro was so spot on

0:04 cant be more accurate.

At this point I'm more interested in what kind of scotch JJ is drinking than The Acolyte.

3:27 “We don’t know, cause she doesn’t know, cause the writers don’t know.” Easily the best summary of this show I’ve read.

I gotta say. As a fan it's been interested seeing star wars through Jeremy's eye's. We went from grown man wearing a star wars curtain as a cape to the the bottle. Literally from the light side to the dark side.

About the back scar: Clearly done with the light whip (I guess? Lol) by the green lady. About everyone being validated and “grey”: 100%. That pretty much represents today’s society in a nutshell(especially here in North America).

And I remember Jeremy being all excited on those SW quizz games at conventions, answerimg difficult questions about the expanded universe and so on... annd now, watching him, as well as a major part of the SW fandom, not giving a **** anymore is so sad... Disney has massacred our boy.

It feels like Leslye Headland had *maybe* 90 minutes of “story” and D+ said stretch it into 8 episodes.

your intro is on point, can't be bothered watching disneys monstrosities, but added commentary makes it at least palatable :)

i haven’t seen an episode of this but i’ve watched all of your videos. thank you

Don’t you know Jeremy? When a villainous dark sider guy has a shirtless scene, that’s film short hand for, all’s forgiven.

It feels like Disney's AI was trained on the Pitch Meeting skits

“Execute… Order Sexy Sith.”

This is the funniest one you've ever done!! 😂😂😂 and I've watched you for years

My god, 20 years from now JJ when you are a full blown alcoholic, you can pinpoint the moment your life went downhill and hopefully sue Lucas Film for this.

They had the sith guy kidnap a woman then expose himself full frontal to her without her consent lol headland definitely writes what she knows I suppose, had me feeling real awkward watching it NGL

you got some good stories ...tell me another one couldn't be funnier 🤣

KZfaq videos about the Acolyte must have more views collectively than the Acolyte itself.

Lore says he wears the helmet to block out the nagging of the witches

This show, Ahsoka, Kenobi, and BoBF were all supposed to be movies under the "A Star Wars Story" label. After Solos box office flop, Disney announced that they were stopping the ASWS series and focussing on Disney+. My guess is these shows were all half-baked movie scripts that have been stuffed with filler and cut into episodes. This one is the most egregious so far with all the awkward cuts and cliffhangers out of nowhere. I mean what was that ending scene in this episode? It's so amateur it hurts! $180 million for this? Cmon.

Let's just say she got a good look at every shade of his saber color...

Getting flashbacks to the Ben Swolo memes, and I can’t believe those were better times

The Acolyte is pretty much the perfect encapsulation of Disney live action Star Wars lately...A pretty cool idea on the surface that totally fumbles its execution.

0:11 Jeremy dealing in Absolute 😆

We are all so grateful for your sacrifice Jeremy

Jeremy jahns is my favorite character in the star wars universe

We're at the runtime of Fellowship of the ring...(and a little into 2 towers) and what has happened? We know as little as we did when we started. And wow the dialogue is so bad.

I’m watching this show vicariously through you.

Rylo Ken, Dank Lord of the Thirst - Seducer of winemoms and destroyer of canon.

Can we talk about Mae's ridiculous scream when she gets sprayed with oil in her eye? It was insane and then 2 seconds after it was like nothing happened. Also, im calling it now, Green Jedi Lady gave Smilo Ren the back scars.

Characters who are evil but think they are good are what you get when writers who think the same way about themselves.

They’re definitely gonna say the whip light sabre green alien lady did that to him. 😂

I laughed out loud at the Memento reference. Spot on sir.

"It's only when you've lost everything, that you're free to do anything" Darth Durden

That back scar....does look like a lightsaber.....a lightsaber whip!!😂😂

Given Leslyyyye's previous employment, it would appear that dragging an unconscious girl to some secret island somewhere and getting nekkid in front of her.... is finally her "writing what you know." 😏

I am making the call now! SmiloRen’s old master is the green Jedi lady. And the reason the scars on his back don’t look like lightsaber burns is because it is SaberWhip marks.

I really like that Jeremy actually critisizes the bad writing and is not diving into the whole other internet scandals and shouting around this show. A show needs to be judged primarily by its writing and plot ❤

At this point with the current state of Star Wars, someone should make a star wars themed liquor bottle flavour for Jeremy here, call it "Dark Sip"

Osha has woken up like, 5 times in this show.

Everytime I see Jeremy with his glass cup on the thumbnail, I just know he’s disappointed 🤣 but completely agree ! This show lacks so much !

There’s a shortage of dumpsters in Hollywood. Disney put them all on fire.

Smile-o ren was green bald jedi master's Padawan. The scar looks erratic on his back and she has an energy whip lightsaber. Mystery solved.

I'm just waiting for him to drink out of the bottle. 😆

4:56 thats where script guy is going to say "so the series can happen, so I need you to get ALL the way of my back about it."

The Acolyte and Jeremy keeping Johnnie Walker on business 🥃

Star wars is temporary but jeremy jahns videos are eternal

I let it go at the time, but the more I think about it the more I think it is super weird that Sol did not turn around to get Osha when he realized that it was Mae with him. Especially since one of the things that they tried to set up is that Sol is protective of Osha like a father.

I am one of those. I am extremely entertained by Jeremy's reviews.

OSHA saw his dark side and fell in love with it….jeeki who?

I haven't watched a single episode of 'The Acolyte,' yet I already know how it ends.

The sith guy is Vernestra's former padawan. The scar looks like it came from her lightwhip.

"Want some cake ?" Take care of your liver, it's not worth it.

Qimir Naked Body was the highlight of the episode..

Just living for Andor at this point.

Lol, watching Jeremy's slowly transforms into a certain drinker is a fookin' hilarious.

I've not watched the last few episodes but I do look forward to these reports. Thanks for sacrificing yourself! 😂

Thank you Jeremy so much for taking one for the team! You’re right, a lot of us are not watching but always looking forward to your review.
