According to Parrot Analytics, the story starring Amandla Stenbergas two different protagonists is currently listed at scoring more than twenty times the average demand seen in the current streaming landscape. This is a rare statistic obtained only by shows that become very popular with audiences after release, meaning that viewers can't get enough of The Acolyte.
