    Nah. The audience score is vulnerable to being manipulated by both bots, coordinated hate campaigns and diehard fans that loose objectivity. I understand why some people will prefer a general population consensus but I always put more weight with the well written columnists over the flippant audience reviews.

    Edit: exactly what I’m talking about lol

      Rotten Tomatoes having both scores is exactly why it’s more reliable than IMDB.

      I usually pay most attention to the critics score. If there is a massive disparity between the critics score and the audience score, it might be sus.
