What more is there to say? They won't listen to us, the general audience. So it will take failure after failure until the money runs out. In the meanwhile we turn to alternative entertainments such as old movies, TV shows and books. Or even go really old school and entertain ourselves with our own creativity. Grab a guitar, exchange short stories with your friends, play board games or run a home-brew RPG game. Basically the 19th Century, pre-mass media age of recreation.
I haven’t watched any of the episodes, but if it’s anything like the latest Disney offerings, I can list three reasons why it failed.
1) The writing sucked. If there’s not a compelling story, it’ll crash.
2) Instead of accepting the fact that the writing was bad, they insulted the fans who wanted a good show.
3) They injected modern politics in a show that’s set a long, long, long, long, long time ago in a galaxy far far far away.
I can forgive a lot in a tv show or movie, but I can’t forgive being insulted by politicizing an IP that doesn’t need to be politicized, and then being insulted because I don’t like it.
Samuel L. Jackson is one of the most beloved Jedi. If there were a movie, when he was younger, about him just hunting down degenerate Sith and rescuing children from force witches for 3 hours it would have been a hit.
That is to say they could have kept all the actors, minus the nepo babies, entirely the same and inverted the plot and it would have been well received.

I would've watched the hell out of this :D
Why did this dumpster fire of a show failed?
Was it because of the stupidity of one?
No.
Maybe the ineptness of two torpedoed it?
Again, no.
Instead, it was doomed by the delusions of maaaaanyyyy!
Yaas, yaaaaaaas
Like a pawuhfeel leadew!
The actor who played Sol was so fucking bad. So much of it was bad. They had a Plagueis story and fucked it up. So much wasted potential.
Probably got cancelled by Filoni. He wasn’t creative director until after it was done filming and such. Fat jedis. Cardboard acting. No imagination.
Best parts were Plagueis in a corner, and Cortosis. That was it.
