Is there something different about reviews of shows these days? Can't put my finger on exactly what but like, lots of headlines like this one talking about numbers and money instead of talking about the show itself? Maybe there's just a... Lot more articles like this?

Not disparaging the post at all but i feel like there's a lot more fluff talking bout things (a movies box office numbers or show viewership numbers) the average person who like me (i assume) cares less about.

No? Am i imagining things?

Could be as simple as journalists who know that no show or movie will get a sequel/second season without making money even if people really liked it, so they wore about the numbers to imply more will be made
