    Ron is "teabagging"? Seriously?
    Not only are these reviews devoid of any real aesthetic perception, but the reach for political snark is grotesque. Maybe Ron just doesn't like to go to the doctor.

    Not my blog. but feel free to go off half-cocked with more assumptions.

    Or in other words:

    So what you want, dear reviewer…
    …is a nice, explicit bias so you'll know whether to dump on the show or not. Because thinking and aesthetic judgment are hard, while side-taking is easy!

    Amy Farris, 1968-2009
    You skipped the week during which Amy Farris died.

    The reviewer's social analysis is disingenuous
    I'm not sure why the reviewer chooses to imply that the media coverage of the Mallard case was missing some subtleties that would make the murderer less culpable. If anything, the full story makes Mallard even less sympathetic.
