 ==== 0-3 scores from Tim ====
   * In [[s07e01|S07E01]], Tim scathingly reviews //[[antman]]//, which cast Gregg as [[dale]], giving it **1 bag of popcorn**. Notably, he gives //[[fantasticfour]]//, a film that cast Tim in a minor role, 6 bags in the same episode. With Gregg recusing himself from reviewing //Ant-Man//, this makes //Ant-Man// the lowest scored film ever in the series.
-  * In [[s11e04|S11E04]], Tim gives the documentary about his district attorney campaign, //[[misteramerica]]// **0 bags of popcorn**, calling it so full of lies and mischaracterization, lambasting director [[josh]] for ignoring his instructions on what to include and exclude.

 ===== Star ratings =====
-Occasionally, popcorn ratings aren't given out at all, with stars being used instead.
+Occasionally, popcorn ratings are accidentally replaced with stars during a review.
   * In [[s01e08|S01E08]], Tim temporarily gives //Zero Dark Thirty// **3 stars**, with Gregg following with **4 stars**. Tim commenting that a 4 star general would most likely be involved in the story of the movie reminds Gregg of the error, and the two quickly revert their reviews to **3 bags** and **4 bags**, respectively.
   * Also in [[s01e08|S01E08]], Tim almost gives Monsters, Inc. 3D **3 stars**, but immediately clarifies to **3 bags**.

 Occasionally, ratings have been given to things that are not movies. While [[documentary|documentaries]] were rated with the popcorn scale (though often getting zero bags for not being movies,) other rating systems have been implemented for other forms of media.
