It's been over a week since Ahsoka concluded and Star Wars fans are still divided on whether or not they actually liked the Rosario Dawson-led show. While it started off on a very promising note, the show wasn't as consistent as fans would have liked, with some episodes feeling a bit lackluster.

Now, it appears that the fans' sentiments translated into the show's finale ratings and if the data is to be believed, it looks like Ahsoka failed to capitalize on all the momentum it had, losing the interest of fans in the process.

According to Samba TV (via X), only 863,000 households tuned into Ahsoka's which is considerably lower compared to any MandoVerse project that came before it.

For comparison, The Mandalorian's Season 3 finale was viewed by 1.5 million households despite the entire season being quite underwhelming.

Even the divisive The Book of Boba Fett also managed to pull 1.5 million viewers for its final episode and you would think Ahsoka would have performed better.

In the end, Ahsoka managed to beat Andor's finale ratings which was viewed by just 591,000 households but coming in third overall when it comes to MandoVerse shows isn't exactly a good sign, especially considering the series received all the hype in the galaxy prior to its release.

To be fair, Ahsoka was still a pretty solid series overall despite some parts feeling too much of a filler. Now, we don't exactly know what led to the finale's massive decline in ratings but we'd like to think that Disney+'s release strategy is one of the factors that might have hurt its chances.

The good thing is the series is poised to get a second season run so of course, there's always a chance to bounce back. Personally though, Disney and Lucasfilm might have to reconsider reverting to the old timeslot that worked tremendously for The Mandalorian and Andor.

All episodes of Ahsoka are available to stream on Disney+.
