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.

After nearly a decade of brand-new Star Wars movies and shows under Disney, which are the coolest new starships flying across the galaxy?

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.

Analysis of a year of streaming TV habits backs up fans who think the Star Wars series was canceled too soon. It appears unnecessary complaints from that small but loud section of toxic Star Wars fandom may have influenced Lucasfilm to cut short the life of The Acolyte too soon.

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