Why do people want to review every episode of a soap

The corrie one for tonite was started at 19.45 when program hasnt even finished

I think its ridiculous why dont people just calm down

This is a soap forum, so why shouldn't we review episodes? You're welcome to start your own threads too (rather than just spout negativity).

Because its fun to discuss an episode, if you dont' want to then don't.

However I will agree its ridiculous these posts are appearing before the show has even finished. A worse example of this was an EastEnders Episode Review being started at 8:05, not even five minutes into the episode and the user was panning it.

Probably because when we see something happen, we want to write it down straight away, for example a funny line which we may not remember word for word at the end of the episode. If you don't like seeing the episode review, don't read or post in it.

Discussing episodes is the best way to start discussions. The whole idea of a soaps forum is that people can watch a soap then discuss it. What better way than to discuss the actual episodes?
But yes, I agree, people should definitely wait until the end of an episode before passing judgement.
Also, if you're typing half way through, you're missing some of the episode!!
