The Acolyte: Big Lightsaber Battle Fails To Make Nielsen Ratings

The Acolyte: Big Lightsaber Battle Fails To Make Nielsen Ratings

The Acolyte fails to make the Nielsen ratings charts for the second week in a row, this time for Episode 5 featuring that “big” lightsaber battle.

And for those Disney shills claiming the Nielsen ratings don’t matter, as I revealed, Disney uses Nielsen and has Nielsen automatically turned on in your Disney+ account.

Those fake fans also waiting on a Season 2 announcement who compare The Acolyte to Ahsoka need to realize Ahsoka has double the amount of fans watching at half the cost.

Nielsen released the ratings for the week Episode 5 of The Acolyte was released, June 24 – June 30, 2024.

At #10 is Jeremy Renner’s Mayor of Kingstown Season 3 with 319 minutes (millions). Since The Acolyte didn’t make the cut, that means The Acolyte‘s numbers are lower than that 319.

As we’ve have been comparing The Acolyte to Ahsoka and Andor, we again see The Acolyte is now the least-watched Star Wars series on Disney+.

The week Andor Episode 5 was released made the Nielsen charts with 356 (it goes up with Episode 6).

For Ahsoka‘s Episode 5, it made the Nielsen charts with 577.

Boba Fett‘s Episode 5 also beat The Acolyte with 580.

Obi-Wan? 733.

The Mandalorian Season 3? 878. Mando S2? 955.
