When Self -cable It was canceled by Disney, the official explanation focused on public decline. Initial relationships of Illuminated date They seemed to support this version, showing a fall of interest after his premiere. However, New figures of parrot analysis They came to light, challenging the narrative that the program did not work.
Actolus and its apparent failure

The expectations were in the clouds, but also the criticisms, with the sectors of the fandom that attacked against the series even before his premiere.

The analysis of Parrot analysis It is not limited to Disney+figures, but measures global demand considering social networks, internet searches, discussion forums and wiki activities. The results were surprising: The Actolus was one of the most popular Disney +series in August 2024, two months after his premiere and precisely when Disney decided to cancel him.
A calculation error?
According to the Parrot analysis report:
“This level of demand places the account in an elite category, showing the potential of the series not only in terms of the public, but also as a precious source of insights for content decisions and distribution strategies.”
The data are revealing because it suggests that the series He continued to attract attention Even when Disney had already decided to lower the curtain. And although the interest has decreased over time, it is still questionable that it has been considered a absolute failure.

Disney clarified that the series has not satisfied its financial expectations. But, in light of these new data, was it a successful decision? Perhaps the company has underestimated the impact of the long -term program, ignoring the value of the involvement generated on social networks and on the communities of fans. In a panorama in which streaming depends more and more on the loyalty of your audience, could Disney have made a strategic error when the door closes to a series with such potential?
Could Disney correct?
For now, The Actolus is still canceledAnd Disney has not given signs of changing her mind. However, the recent report puts under control the narrative that the series was an absolute failure. It would not be the first time that a Star Wars program receives a second possibility after a revaluation.
With the growing influence of the fandom on the decisions of the great franchises, it could be Self -cable reborn in the future? Disney listened to the audience before … maybe again.
