They're also comparing the ratings of a single episode of Penguin to the entire first season of The Acolyte

Funny, art is about more than sales numbers? Who would've thunk?

The first episode of the penguin is cinematic crème de la crop. While the entire season of the Acolyte is barely amateur hour. Writing, cinematography, costumes, set design, acting, makeup, music, sound design, plot. The penguin delivered in a single hour to levels of artistic satisfaction that not even the best hour of the Acolyte could even dream of achieving.

I know it is unpopular to say this on the Internet, but storytelling and dialogue is still the core of video entertainment. No matter how high the budget and quality is, if you're filming a turd, it is still just cinematographic shit. While you can make a modest production of a masterpiece writing and it will still outpace in praises the literal gilded turd. No matter how much either sells.

Not really, just look at any of the Critical Drinker's takes on the Acolyte.

I mean, I've been downvoted to hell just for saying "hey, writing is the core of a movie or series, good production can rarely salvage a bad script". Then I was crucified.

It's unpopular to say when the target work is focused on diversity, then the content isn't relevant anymore.
