llmsy:
I also only rate shows I've finished since my feelings usually change from start to end. I never rate anything that is on hold or dropped, since it feels unfair to slap a rating on something I have not/will never finish...
yeah i don't generally like to rate something I didn't finish.
if I don't like it because its not my thing, i don't rate it because its just not for me and that doesn't make it objectively bad. also if the acting or plot is not well done i still don't want to give a bad rating because there are dramas ive enjoyed in spite of a weak plot or ropey acting!
I've got 2 dropped dramas that i've rated because i watched almost all of the eps but felt like the drama romanticised problematic behaviour. (I had a 3rd but i just changed it to unrated because it was from my early drama watching days and i just thought the plot and acting were poor)
