What's this?

It's like picking up an NFL Film's recap of any one of the Browns last


20 seasons. Based on the cut of the highlights and the narrator, you would think the browns won the super bowl instead of just 2 games. EW is there to encourage you to consume the show so you will keep coming back for the weekly recap and click on anything they create that mentions the show. they're recaps usually have enough of a critical bite but frankly, if I am enjoying watching a show and all the writers in follow up articles do is crap all over it, I'm going to find that review somewhere else.

There have been shows (Lost was an example) where I was really into it but whoever they hired to recap definitely was not...I don't want to be made to feel like an idiot for enjoying a show, every time I click on a site to read about it.
