I’m not gonna mention his name because he’s a notorious name searcher but a few years ago there was this “entertainment critic/journalist” who cozied up to the people behind a (at the time) very popular network drama.
He got popular for famously flattering recaps & columns about the show, even late when the quality of the show had dropped off significantly. Wouldn’t know from his recaps though!
