Reviews are personal and subjective. There's nothing inherently wrong with adding one for a specific DB episode; I can't think of an objection to it that wouldn't have downstream consequences for other works. That said, reviews should be attached to existing work articles, so either you'd put it on a Recap for a specific episode or on the main article. As long as that's being obeyed, I don't see the problem.

We don't ban reviews that are complaining just because they are complaining; they need to be violating some other rule, like civility or drama importation, or be blatant trolling, or something else like that.

Understood. But what about the fact that it isn't review of an episode, but complain about the episode's setup? Is that ok as well? (I checked the troper's edit, and pretty sure they aren't watch the episode yet since they made WMG entry that there will be joking about nudity).

I don't think we care about that unless it's blatant trolling, as I said. Which it might be, but I can't render that judgment ex nihilo.

Ah well. So I guess I'll wait until the episode is out and see if their review is factual correct or not.
