APRIL FOOLS.
Obviously the website isn't being rebranded "All That Decimals".
Our star rating system remains as does my opinion that half stars are the devil.
It wouldn't be April Fools Day without me renaming the website.
That's four years in a row now.
Can I make it five?

I'm thrilled to announce a change in how we review shows.
We will now use half stars as well as including every possible combination.
Expect ratings like 4.2, 3.6 & 1.7 stars.
To reflect this, the website is now called All That Decimals.
I think this rating system is much simpler
