Scores:10: Though it is not free from my critiques, this score is dedicated to the piece(s) that, in my opinion, embodies the finest execution of the most significant ideas that resonate deeply with me. I have a really hard time giving things a 10, and I do want to get to a point where I'm more comfortable with my definition of this score.8-9: Excellent. Stands out among all.5-7: Good. Memorable in some positive form.4: Mediocre. Don't have an overall negative view of it, but not overall positive either.1-3: Bad. Takes many forms - poor execution of ideas, plain boring/generic, or completely forgettable.What I Look For in a Show:- Personal impact
- Timeless and important themes
- Unique and innovative presentation and directing
- Inclusive and nuanced representation (people of color, queer characters, well-written women, etc.)
- Strong execution (pacing, thematic exploration, developed characters, etc.)Other Notes:Does not rely on comparisons. Scores are entirely independent of each other.Not based on enjoyment or the notion of "objective quality" (since the concept of objectivity in art is nonsensical), I can enjoy something while still assigning it a relatively low rating. That's precisely why I write comments—to articulate my thoughts more effectively instead of relying solely on some arbitrary score.I am iffy on a lot of my scores and comments. I am (very slowly) working on reworking them, but most of them probably need a rewatch in order to be actually accurate.
