Everything you need to use Critic, Sir! without reading a terms-of-service novel.

What is Critic, Sir!?

A place to track TV shows, movies, and video games, drop a verdict, and see what people you follow are logging. We lean a little theatrical about “critic culture” — but the lists and reviews are yours.

Where things live

  • Home — Trending picks and quick filters (TV / Movies / Games) in the bar below the header.
  • Discover — Browse by genre, year, region, and more.
  • Community — Find other critics and follow them.
  • The Feed — Recent activity from people you follow.
  • My List (via your profile) — Your library, organised by TV, then Movies, then Games.

Building your list

Sign in with Google, then open any title from search or Discover. Use Add to your liston the title's page. You can update or remove entries anytime from your profile.

Plan, watching, and finished

Every title has three stages (wording shifts slightly for games — “play” instead of “watch”):

  • Plan — Saved for later (watchlist / backlog).
  • Watching / playing — In progress. You can set a quick verdict (recommend, give it a go, neutral, avoid) without a full score yet.
  • Done — Finished. That unlocks your rating (0–10, half-point steps) and written review.

TV shows: you set status per season(tap a season to cycle Plan → Watching → Done). One show stays a single row on your profile; progress reads like “Seasons 1–3” instead of duplicate entries.

Reviews and verdicts

When you're done with something, add a rating, choose a verdict (Recommend, Give it a go, Neutral, Avoid), and optionally a short write-up.

Stuck on wording? Use Make it snappy, Sir! — it runs your draft through AI for a tighter, cheekier blurb (your call whether the machine is funnier than you).

Following people

Open Community, find someone whose taste you trust (or love to argue with), and hit Follow. Their new logs show up on The Feed and in the Following activitystrip on the home page when you're signed in.

Profile layout

On a critic's profile, the main column runs TV Shows, then Movies, then Video Games. The smaller column has avatar, bio, and likes — the usual social suspects.

Questions later? This page is always one tap away — look for Help in the bar under the main nav.
