It will come as a surprise to no one that "we" do not speak with a unified voice. (On anything!) I also cannot imagine that in general "we" say nice things pre-review. I think many would say just the opposite.

Are you aware of any individual opinions that were changed post-reviews in this case? (I confess I haven't kept up with that.)

To me the more apt question may be whether people who had a negative reaction before posting anything and then seeing a bunch of positive reactions tend to not post because they don't want to "rain on the parade" at least until the reviews give them some sort of license to do so. I think there may well be SOME people who would do that, but I don't think "we" do that either. Perhaps there is some deeper meaning here. Or some lesser meaning: that people predisposed to liking the show may have gone sooner rather than later.

Curious if others see something notable that I don't...
