Hmm they prob are Sith then. Also, I just read this on Wookieepedia: "The Sith were free to train dark side agents identified as Sith acolytes so long as those acolytes were not trained as true Sith Lords. However, it was more than possible the Sith apprentice would violate the Rule of Two by training an acolyte as a real apprentice, intending to have their aid in overthrowing the Sith Master." So maybe this is what's happening? Basically. I’d guess Leslye was looking at Wookiee-pedia too, saw that entry and said “Yeah, let’s do that!” A square peg in a round hole fits better than this story did in telling that story. Assuming that's actually what's happening. Another theory says that Plagueis could be tracking down The Stranger, who could be a dark force user outside of the Sith (or one who abandoned the Sith creed), perhaps in order to kill him.

That may be a possible idea for what they’d want to be a season 2. But again, it’s retrofitting this story onto the earlier one and trying to make this the default version. I don’t think it’s going to take hold after its reception.

Well, it's not looking too hopeful, as Disney has yet to renew it or even give a sign that they intend to do so: ew.com/the-acolyte-creator-leslye-headland-season-2-heard-nothing-8681155

On the other hand I may actually give Skeleton Crew a try this December.
Looks cheap in places, but seems more Star Wars-ish than a lot of things over the past few years.

I'm definitely checking that one out, especially since it appears to be interconnected with The Mandalorian - I noticed at least a couple characters from there (like the pirate, Vane, and Din himself).

Least surprising news of the year. How long before it’s memory holed off Disney+?

First article I've read which mentions the Nielsen ratings for this show.
