Reflections From a Murky Pond

IYKYK 😆 Really! You’ve got to be getting up there in years to truly appreciate this. But, for those of us of Gen X, this is hilarious.

Yes, not too surprisingly, Disney has “canceled” The Acolyte. It will not be given a second season. The saga of the lesbian space witches has died… though, maybe it should be described as DEI’d, given the nature of the series’ agenda-driven creation. 😉

Perhaps putting out a series with no connection to any of the proven story arcs and then making sure to make it not just non-canonical, but actively anti-canonical was a stupid idea. Forcing a #Woke agenda into it was certainly a mistake and an easily avoidable one.

And, in response to their show’s failure, Leslye Headland and Kathleen Kennedy – the woke womyn running The Acolyte – went full-on Bud Light, even though everyone should know that you never go full-on Bud light.

Yeah, taking a page out of Alissa Heinerscheid’s playbook and insulting and attacking the core customers when they choose not to partake of something that wasn’t made for them and was apparently made to alienate them is a level of self-destructive stupidity that I thought was now well-understood and deprecated. But Disney’s DEI hires have proved me wrong.

At the end of the day, it doesn’t matter. Even if the fanbase is everything evil and horrid that these two claim them to be, it doesn’t matter. Headland and Kennedy had one job and one job only – to make a television series that was profitable for their employer, Disney. In that they failed utterly, completely, and humiliatingly. They created something that very few people watched and spent $180 million doing so.

In point of fact, if the Star Wars fanbase is everything evil and horrid that these two claim them to be, it was Headland’s and Kennedy’s sole job to produce a series that catered to their desires, prejudices, and preconceptions, unless there were credible studies definitively showing that their was a large enough replacement audience to make the series profitable despite it not being accepted by the existing fanbase.

One either produces a series that people will watch and, hence, provide profit or you have failed. It doesn’t matter why they watched or didn’t watch. All that matters is whether they did or didn’t. And, in the case of The Acolyte, not enough people by a wide margin watched it because it wasn’t something anyone wanted to see and spend their time on.

😆 ROFLMAO 😆 The United Federation Of Horror indeed! Of course, there’s an added level of horror for us grognard types: few younger than 50 years-old know that the character, Michael Myers in the venerable Halloween franchise wore a Captain Kirk mask.

Recognize this promo pic? I’d do. If you do as well, you’re probably an old grognard like me. Then, we had the best children’s TV, didn’t we? Yeah, Ark II was awesome. And, it was insofar as I know the progenitor of the entire Post Apocalypse genre of speculative fiction.

ROFLMAO Now that would be a hilarious mashup! The Rocky & Bullwinkle Horror Picture Show just sounds snarkily awesome. Or, it would if I wasn’t afraid that it’d be made as “Learning Television” for Democrat groomers to show in elementary schools.
