I'm using IMDB because it's the biggest so it's got the most ratings, hance should be the most reliable. But then I only treat it as a general indicator, not source of truth.
You might wanna find a reviewer that shares your preferences and follow them.
Unfortunately it's owned by Amazon now so it inflates the ratings of their shows. But other than that it's still quite good like you said for getting an overview
IMDb balances out eventually
So many fake reviews to start with, but then ratings drop as real reviews come in.
If you're patiently sailing the high seas, it's reliable as fuck
That's some solid advice
