Yes, I agree. The Times still counts the most. It can't necessarily make or break a show on its own, but it never really could. I just remembered another example of the limits of the power of the Times in the past. Kerr was the daily critic when The Homecoming opened in 1967. He didn't like it, but it ran long enough to win the Tony and the Drama Critics awards and those surely helped it to have a good run. Maybe it never sold out, but it paid off.
