Star Wars: Skeleton Crew (2023 Disney+ Series)

We're not seeing it pop onto luminate charts either, which is a shame. At least it was half the price of acolyte and more warmly received.

Yeah there likely won’t be any season 2 so I hope there’s no tease at the end.

It’s strange to me. Despite all the Star Wars stuff it very much doesn’t feel like Star Wars to me, yet I still really enjoy it.

That's a fairly common feeling to have. The show is enjoyable, but it doesn't feel like star wars. I've heard that from a lot of people.

According to Nielsen's streaming data, Star Wars: Skeleton Crew experienced the lowest viewership of any Star Wars show's premiere in its first week.

I think we're seeing some acolyte carryover. Similar to last Jedi and Solo. The acolyte was so bad, it has caused apathy for star wars. Releasing solo when they did, didn't do it any favors. But if last Jedi hadn't split the fanbase, more people show up. Also, couple that with the fact Disney is pretty terrible at tv shows, people might be waiting to see how it all ends before they invest.

I have zero intention to watch this show until it is finished. And I probably won't watch at all if there's any cliffhanger and no season 2 like acolyte. Fool me twice as they say. It really shouldn't be a big mystery to anyone who's been paying attention why this show hasn't really gained a large following.

Half the price yet looks much better. Yet it still more than Obiwan got.
It's a good show, just no one is watching. Disney has poisoned the well.

Okay, anyone else want to post their live action show rankings now that this is over? For me it's:

Andor
Mandalorian
Obi-Wan Kenobi
The Book of Boba Fett (second half with Mando - first half was not good)
Acolyte
Ahsoka
Skeleton Crew

Or basically: love Andor & Mando. Watched everything else.

 

[Phroobar]

Mine is

Mandalorian
Ahsoka
Skeleton Crew
The Book of Boba Fett
Andor
Obi-Wan Kenobi
Acolyte

Sorry, I didn't like Andor as much as every one else. It could have been any scifi show and it was slow.

 

[mf1972]

mandalorian
andor
skeleton crew
ahsoka
obi wan
boba fett
acolyte

 

[Mike S]

mandalorian
andor
skeleton crew
ahsoka
obi wan
boba fett
acolyte

Agree with this with the caveat that the Mando episodes of Boba are at the top with season 1 & 2 and Mando season 3 goes down with Boba.

It’s a huge mystery why they can’t get “the feels” right?

What in 1980 and 1983 can’t be drawn upon now?

Maybe all this stuff is “too digital”? “Too clean?”

Really a head scratcher

 

[Sirwalterraleigh]

mandalorian
andor
skeleton crew
ahsoka
obi wan
boba fett
acolyte

Honestly…I’d put obi higher

If only for Vader

Icons are icons for a reason

Yep…for the same reason

Never thought I’d see the day where Christensen is the “high point”

This show had a pretty close feel if only for all the aliens.

mandalorian
andor
skeleton crew
ahsoka
obi wan
boba fett
acolyte

This one and I haven't hated any of them per se.

 

[Disney Irish]

I would put Acolyte above Boba Fett, but agree I haven’t hated any of them.

 

[TeddyinMO]

Andor
Mando
Skeleton Crew
Obi Wan
Ahsoka
Acolyte
Boba Fett

I have enjoyed all of them, but I feel like Andor, Mando and Skeleton Crew are on a different level.

 

[Phroobar]

The only reason I ranked Ashoka higher was because of the history and characters in the Clone Wars and Rebels. I just wish it wasn't so bland. The character dialog and emotions didn't match the animated shows.

 

[Tha Realest]

I appreciated what they tried to do with Skeleton Crew. First episode was interesting but me and my kids didn’t really like or connect with any of the main characters. Haven’t watched any more episodes.

I really appreciated that this show returned to the Star Wars tradition of aliens looking like they have their own unique physiology... and not just humans in green face paint.
