Season Five

Season five needs editing, as there is speculation included in the description. There is also the line "Let's see what happens with the gang!!" which, in my opinion, is rather unprofessional; a factual, objective article should not be used for promotional means.

Critical Response Positive Reviews

Hi everyone!

There seems to be an imbalance between the positive and negative reviews in the critical response section. Also - the positive feedback only has one source. Is there any way we can expand on the positive response? Especially because the article claims the show had mixed reviews. It is so important to remain consistent with the information we choose to include!

Thanks!

Additionally, there is only one positive source in this section. It is poor practice to cite only one source and discuss only one opinion that does not seem incredibly valuable to the article.

Let me know what you guys think!

Season 4 Graduation Party

Hi everyone!

I noticed that the season 4 description ends with a comment that there were relationships ruined during the graduation party. What relationships were ruined? I think it would be stronger to describe what happened, especially since that season's synopsis is already looking quite short. It also removes the ambiguity from the sentence, which is important for an encyclopedic format.

Thank you!

Sincerely,

Citation in Ratings Section?

Hi everyone!

I noticed there was a quote in the ratings section without any citation. Can anyone find a source for this quote?

Thanks!
