I understand what you're saying, Matt. And I actually do agree with you. A critic's job is to watch and criticise in public so the prospective audience can make a decision to watch or not partly based on that decision and whatever reasons the critic gives. Some critics naturally have, or they cultivate, a sarcastic you-can't-please-me style and a reputation for expressing it. Ordinarily I disregard a critic's opinion, because few of them have a similar viewer's perspective to mine. Honestly, y'all are my best source of honest criticsm, be it tv, movies, books, or recipes.
So I do think this reviewer was doing his job. His tone hits me wrong, and I know that's my defensiveness and not any sort of objectivity. I still don't like what he said, or the way he said it. But I can't argue with his voicing his opinion.
Or, you know, what Amy said.
Again. It is Cracked. Home of things like The Ten Most Unintentionally Homoerotic Country and Western Ballads and Five Movie Sex Scenes That Will Make You Take a Purity Vow.
I hesitate to call a Cracked description of a show a review. It's like a review's 12 year old little brother doing stand up.
Now, of course, one could certainly argue that Cracked is part of the culture of oversnark.
Though for an oversnark site, it isn't nearly as cutting as some.
And, ahahaha, I am getting all defensive about ... Cracked.
The circle is complete!
Then my trolling job is done. Honestly I just forgot I posted and thought I better check because I remembered my emo state after reading the review.
who seems to be having fun shitting on something you love.
This was what I was referring to Matt, not someone saying, "Hey, this show is crap in my opinion." When someone insinuates they are smarter than I am, with snark or meanness because they think it is crap and I don't, then I have a problem. According to the author, even the DVD player has better taste than I do. This may be true, but is just mean to say.
I never felt like you were condemning me because I liked season one. I thought I was being clear about separating the opinion by saying I didn't mean Morgana, but I'm genuinely sorry if I made you feel unwelcome to express your opinions.

Not spoilery for anything but S4.
Well, my dream vacation didn't turn out. Imagine that with all that is going on...anyway, I'm selling the ticket and the photo ops on ebay. The auction is listed under GOLD SPN Vancouver Con Seat D24, Photo Ops, Set tours.
I'm not going to put a link here because I don't want anyone to think I'm asking you guys to bid. If you had wanted it, you would have purchased at the time they were selling. Just letting you know this is mine.
"Life...don't talk to me about life."
Oh no, it's okay, really. It would have been hell for me to have to be around that many people.
