I have to go with Zeke on this one, although I admit my source is two years out of date. I loved TWoP for S1 ENT. As S2 ENT continued, Keckler got nastier and more vicious until by the end of the year I felt like I had to click the mouse with asbestos gloves. When she did a summer extra recap of a TOS episode and called Kirk filthy names three times on the first page, I said the hell with this, I'm outta here.
To me that's not appropriate snarking at bad writing, it's just seeing how extreme the bashing can go. Of course ENT had writing problems. But ENT also had some good material in the first two years, and Keckler refused to acknowledge it for the most part. And she constantly whomped on Trip for absolutely no reason. (I know she's converted now, but her ranting was unjustified regardless.)
Some people like nasty-funny. Some people like "Fear Factor" too. It's just not my style.
