From its inception, Disney Plus has made Star Wars a focal point for creating unique and original content, which has led to some fantastic television shows. They have focused on different timelines, some bringing in Star Wars characters that people know and love, while others have featured more obscure or completely new names.

The Acolyte was Disney Plus 's second most viewed show of 2024. That's according to findings by Luminate, shared by Deadline. Per the report, Percy Jackson and the Olympians was the top performing show of 2024 on Disney Plus with over 3 billion minutes viewed, while The Acolyte was slightly behind it with 2.7 billion.

The Acolyte, it turns out, was Disney Plus's second most-watched series of the year, and it still ended up cancelled. Why?
