I'm sorry, but the moment you post two reviews for something your opinion becomes officially gos se.
Same for the moment you diss Firefly.

That's the whole point of posting reviews. If you think something is a waste of money, you can stop them from wasting their money as well. I want to read the positive reviews and the negative reviews when I am on the fence whether or not to buy something. I look at which views make sense, and seem to fit my way of thinking.
I bought a charcoal grill at Amazon.com, and wasn't sure if it was what I wanted, and there were a ton of positive reviews, so I went looking for the negative reviews. The only negative review I found complained that the grill didn't come with charcoal, it didn't come assembled, and after he finally got it up and running, he put his chicken on, and left it cooking and came back two hours later, and the chicken was burned to a crisp, so the grill didn't work right. I just laughed it off, and bought it anyways.
And as for a comment from somebody else...yes if you are going to criticize someone for not spelling something right in a review, you best be damned sure that your criticism is spelled correctly. I don't care if you are a fan of firefly or not, it kills your argument.
Set to go, snap. ball down, kick up, its on the way and, it, is...good! It's good! It's good! Adam Vinatieri booms a 48 yard field goal! And the game is over, and the Patriots are superbowl champions! The best team in the national football league!

The Hindenburg of Television - I agree!
It was one of the first of its kind - a wonder that a few priveleged select enjoyed and appreciated. Then due to an unpredictable spark (Fox Corp), the televsion series came to an abrupt, untimely end. In both cases, no one really knew why the demise occured (was Fox stupid?). After research, both errors were brought to light and aided in later developement (THE BIG DAMN MOVIE!!). Alta's Hubby.

Does that criticism apply to run on sentences & lack of capitalization?

"May have been the losing side. Still not convinced it was the wrong one."

I'm not sure why we do this every time a bad review is posted. I have loved things everyone else has loved, loved things everyone else has hated, hated things everyone else has hated, and hated things everyone else has loved. I have been the single negative review in a sea of positive on Amazon (not for Firefly, of course, or I wouldn't hang out on this board). That's just the way life goes. This woman is entitled to her opinion. We don't have to like it, or agree with it, but she's still allowed to have it and express it. Vote that her review isn't helpful or write your own if you want, and then just let it go.
