Whiny angry-mob sign-clutching Marge Simpson types to get wound up about nothing?

We Foster's fans keep finding this review and sharing our frustrations over it. Including me two years ago. And believe it or not, there's already a thread about it here. I remember I originally posted about it in the "What Ticks You Off" thread, and then was pointed to the original thread. That review made me so mad. I'm sure this review has hurt our show's ratings in some way or form, due to all the well meaning parents who read it and didn't want to give it a chance. And yes, that makes me very mad.

I'm one of the posters who gave it a great review, by the way.

I couldn't just sit back and do nothing.

I've only started on the second page of your link but I cannot stop smirking!

I always thought the review was brief, and she only concentrated on the weak episodes (Imposters and Europe) but only now do I realize how poorly researched it is.

We have people like that in the UK. They read a newspaper called the Daily Mail (which you may have heard of as Harry Potter's bigoted uncle reads it)

It is clear the review is widely unpopular, so any administrators have my full permission to close this thread
