The title of this enhancement request should be updated to include the other Plex client applications on other platforms such as the Amazon Fire TV Stick and the Nvidia Shield, as well as I believe the Apple TV. I did not want to create a separate feature request, although I was considering doing so.
These Rotten Tomato Reviews show up unwanted and really detract from the whole experience. The reason that I got Plex was to organize my own media, not invite people to judge my choices or tastes, especially critics. You know there are some movies where the audience loves it but the critics hate it. By adding these Rotten Tomato reviews in the TV clients, it detracts from the entire Plex experience, it can just ruin the movie, and it can make me not even want to watch a movie that I purchased.
I am not talking about the ratings source for the reviews rating. I am talking only about the actual snippets of critic reviews that show up in the client apps on the TV. I do not want to refresh my metadata for my whole library changing agents, because I’ve spent lots of time organizing and customizing, as was suggested in another solution to disable metadata sources to prevent these reviews from populating. I saw another workaround that involves manually editing the XML files however this did not seem to work successfully for me in all cases.
Please seriously have the option to disable this, preferably from the Web server.
