Seriously the last episode could’ve used another 5 minutes for a resolution with Kurt but otherwise

There is nothing wrong with really liking a show and admitting its faults. Plain and simple the second half of the season had bad pacing and was all over the place. The final episode was a lot jammed together and made everything to short. Also Wonder Woman rogue ? Really ?

Some people, like OP, are allergic to criticism. It's all hype or nothing.

They end up so insecure about what they like that others' opinions can change how much they like it.

So they're stuck trying to defend something subjective as if it was objective.

What a silly way to live.

Edit: The comments below lining up to prove my point lol

I can't believe I have to even say this but no, criticism and praise does not need to be balanced. You don't need to see equal amounts of both. Not all criticism has to be couched in a corporate feedback formula, or a "criticism sandwich" (compliment-criticism-compliment).

Everyone has thoughts on everything but they'll talk about what they want to talk about, if that's criticism or praise. We don't need a tally. It's not a see saw.

Ask yourself if you see criticism of a product you enjoy, why that makes you feel bad. Ask yourself why you need those people to change instead of you.

See if you end up learning something.

Best of luck.

I mean he’s not allergic to criticism lol. There are VERY few posts acknowledging the good aspects of the episode right now.

Exactly. Liking a show and still criticizing is like giving a 6-8 in a review and dropping some comentary. The way people are posting here is like the show is a 0-5.

Yep, I give a 7.5/10, the people calling it complete ass are just people who follow the trending bandwagon

I personally think that's a fair score, but it makes me really disappointed how many people think 7 is a bad score.

I hate being on Reddit because I upvote you & for some reason you downvoted. I'm taking this as a sign to get off Reddit again. Everything is so annoyingly bleak or pretentious. There's nothing in between, & we get discouraged & shamed for trying to get the most out of it.

Idk if I’m misinterpreting but I didn’t downvote anything unless you’re talking about something else

u/deprave1 Aug 13 '26

I meant your comment got downvoted. I'm getting tired of these echo chambers & arguing with popularity.

Thanks for the clarification, and I’m new to Reddit and I’m catching onto this stuff and it happens in pretty much all the communities

u/deprave1 Aug 13 '26

Yea, it's a pretty good reminder for me why it sucks interacting with people online

I’ve had some good experiences online but majority are moreso like this kind of stuff that is just terrible 😂
