Welcome to episode 240. Our headline story is about The Acolyte, which, as we know, was supposed to be a fresh insight into the Sith but got unceremoniously axed. Now, Disney is trying to spin it as a success because it racked up some viewing minutes. Sure, let's ignore the fact that the show was generally panned. Classic Disney.
We also touch on the ongoing saga of upcoming Star Wars movies, where writers come and go faster than Jedi at a lightsaber duel, The High Republic wraps up, lots of new Star Wars merch... Plus, there's a shiny new Death Star LEGO set on the horizon priced for the truly devoted. So, grab your popcorn—oh wait, you can't afford it after that LEGO purchase—and settle in for some sarcastic insights and absurdity from around the galaxy.
