Hey there Liz,

Thanks for the response :)

Right, gotcha - so is it a review that's been rewritten over an existing template? Or is it a new entry (template-wise, at least)? It would be cool to have updated, as it is a wee bit of a difference in perception :)

Thanks for the heads-up, appreciate it!

Hey, Danny, great question. The two stars are from the original review -- we're still figuring out a way to compensate for the new rating and the old one within the site template (as this is the first time we've rereviewed a show). I would definitely increase the rating to three stars, though!

Hi Liz,

I have to admit to being a little confused by your review. I get the impression (from your content) that Showbizzle has realized the mistakes they made last year, took them on and pretty much eliminated them.

There still seems to be minor issues, but overall perhaps they'll improve as the show continues (overdubs being one example).

But generally you're saying that the new elements work well and there's a lot to be admired. Which is why the 2-star rating confuses?
