I’m proud to say that I haven’t watched a second of The Acolyte, but I watched everything the Drinker had to say about it.
The funny thing is: we all do not watch a minute of these shows, but then willingly listen to one hour of the Drinker rambling about it :D
The failure of One! The failure of Two! And the failure of Maaaaaannnnnnnyyyyyyyy!
I'd rather listen to The Drinker talk about The Acolyte for an hour, than watch The Acolyte for a minute.
It took me a year to forget this thing existed. How dare you remind me with an hour long critical temptation!

It's impressive how far Disney goes out of their way to spend 200millions to convince me to cancel my subscription
"It was nice to see Carrie Anne-Moss back in action- ah, nevermind." Sums up the series perfectly.
The Drinker deserves a medal for sitting through this insanity. You sir are a legend, and I salute your bravery.
I swear, the scripts for these shows feel like they were first drafts and everyone decided "Fuck it. Good enough"
