It was in the alpha testing process so no. However I firmly believe the Schumer debacle is what sped up the rollout and don't believe it was a big coincidence that they announced it right after her bomb.

I remember reading into this when this topic was popular on CE. The Netflix rating system was already being beta tested and had a launch date prior to the Amy Schumer ratings.

There was not a full rollout date prior.

She had a very bad stand up special and blamed the reviews why no one watched it

Did I mention it was terrible?

You don't have to. It was implied with the fact it was Amy Schumer.

It's funny how so many of the people here that question everything accept this right away. OMG Amy Schumer! OMG feminists!

Instead of a nuanced 5 star system they changed it to either "bad" or "good". Youtube pulled the same crap a few years prior as well.

Except (at least on PS4 Netflix) I can't view the ratio.


Odd. My PS3 netflix lets me see the various thumbs up %.

Yes they changed their system to appease one celebrity.

So, they started developing it a year before in anticipation for her special bombing?

I watched a review of it and the guys pulled a bunch of clips from all stages of the special

It was fucking god awful. The same vagina jokes all throughout the 40 minutes. The same hehe im a slut. It was awfullllllllllll. Basically the epitome of Schumer.

So of course she cried sexism when people rightfully blasted it

a company like Netflix isn't going to make changes like that overnight. It was a planned roll out.
