Review-bombed Kids Show?

Howdy! I just watched a show with my two-year-old daughter earlier today at a friend's house and decided to look up more info on it. When I started digging into it, the "Parents Guide" section shows that the show has "severe" for things like sex and violence (despite, from what I've seen, having neither). Also, the reviews on it are simply either 1s or 10s (with most of the 10s stating that they gave it a 10 to combat obvious review-bombing). The show didn't seem like a 10 but it certainly wasn't a 1 either (at least, in my opinion). Is there any way to have someone review this show's page and see if those ratings should stand? It's weird folks would do this to a kids show like this. https://www.imdb.com/title/tt19356182/?ref_=tturv_ov_bk

xander: I have given you a "Like" vote because this happens from time to time where people add fake "severe" ratings to the Parents Guide. https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/childrens-tv-series-cocomelon-false-certificates-and-severity-bombing/61cf4ad0add924150d18a38a https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/parental-guide-seems-manipulated/625da4005929ed7176f27a92 https://community-imdb.sprinklr.com/conversations/data-issues-policy-discussions/yet-another-kids-movies-parents-guide-vandalized/5f4a7a2b8815453dba9bb656 The IMDb staff will have to intervene to remove the fake "severe" votes from the Parents Guide. As to the ratings of 1 or 10, that seems to be how a lot of people rate titles on IMDb. Everything gets either a 1 or a 10 to some voters. I would just recommend ignoring the numerical ratings until the show gets a lot more ratings than this one has.
