Politico’s Bill Kuchman joins Eric and Grace to discuss the demoralizing cancelation and its broader implications, including what we think of a franchise dominated by The Mandalorian and its spinoffs, how it feels to see an ambitious project get scrapped without a peep from Disney, and how The Acolyte’s demise could hurt Disney in the long run.
