Over the last year, we continued to adapt our prior reviews so they have functional links and our new reviews are being released with good new links, so products being reviewed generally have the right products associated with them. We appreciate our readers sticking with us through Amazon reconfiguring, which continues to be ongoing!
This month, we picked up two new followers on Twitter, but no new subscribers! We are always trying to get people to become regular readers and subscribe, so if you enjoy what you're reading, please subscribe by clicking on the right side of the blog to get updates with each posting. As well, if you read a review that really affects you, be sure to "share" it! PLEASE share a link to the blog, not the content of the article; this keeps people coming to the site and, hopefully, liking what they find once they are here! We're slowly growing our readership, so sharing and subscribing to the blog is an important way you can help! If you’re subscribing, please tell your friends about the blog!
In December, we updated the index pages every few days, keeping them quite useful to our readers. The primary Index Page, is usually updated daily and lets you know what the featured review is and has an up-to-the-day tally of how many reviews have been reviewed in each category! Check it out and feel free to use that as it is a much more useful and organized index to the reviews I've written, compared to what Blogspot offers!
If you enjoy the reviews, please consider clicking on the links in the reviews (at least the ones that render properly!) and purchasing items. We really appreciate all the purchases made through the blog as that keeps us going. As the new years starts, if you're going shopping online, please come through the blog to to it. Thank you so much!

The Featured Review For The Month of December is my review of: The Orville - Season 1!
Check it out!
The month of December was mostly filled with new, highly-read reviews, mostly because of the return to air of Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D., though it was topped by a legacy review from a year ago! For December, the Top Ten Reviews of the month were:
10. Star Wars: Episode VIII - The Last Jedi
9. "Home" - The Punisher
8. "A Life Spent"- Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
7. The Punisher - Season 1
6. "Don't Run" - The Flash
5. "Reign" - Supergirl
4. "Rewind" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
3. "Orientation, Part 2" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
2. "Orientation, Part 1" - Agents Of S.H.I.E.L.D.
1. Travelers - Season 1
This has been a very exciting year for us and the most of our most popular review of the year were from 2017, but we had a couple of holdovers from other years! The Top Ten Reviews for the entire year were:
10. Why Wonder Woman Will Age Poorly
9. One Day At A Time - Season 1 / Sense8 - Season 2 (TIE!)
8. Glow - Season 1
7. You Get Me
6. "Duet" - The Flash
5. Iron Fist - Season 1
4. Friends From College - Season 1
3. Thirteen Reasons Why - Season 1
2. Santa Clarita Diet - Season 1
1. A Series Of Unfortunate Events - Season 1
I pride myself on being an exceptionally fair reviewer, but one who is very discriminating. I believe that most reviewers are far too biased toward both what is current and toward unduly praising things. I tend to believe most things actually are average and they ought to follows something around a Bell Curve. Mine is a little lopsided, but not as lopsided as most reviewers I know (who would probably have peak numbers between ten and seven)!
For my reviews, the current count is:
10s - 341 reviews
9s - 541 reviews
8s - 1030 reviews
7s - 1145 reviews
6s - 1067 reviews
5s - 1359 reviews
4s - 1022 reviews
3s - 800 reviews
2s - 391 reviews
1s - 259 reviews
0s - 131 reviews
No rating - 145 articles/postings
There was a decent amount of movement this year, including a new addition to the all time Top Ten Reviews! At the end of December 2017, the most popular reviews/articles are:
10. Oz The Great And Powerful
9. The Mortal Instruments: City Of Bone
8. A Series Of Unfortunate Events - Season 1
7. Warm Bodies
6. Iron Man 3
5. Now You See Me
4. Tyler Perry's Temptation
3. The Burden Of Being Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
2. The Hobbit: The Desolation Of Smaug
1. Man Of Steel
