Actually, the two sections are apart even on the Viki website. They are just one under the other.
The section for Reviews and Ratings looks like this:
While the section for Comments has its own separate field for entering text.
The truth of the matter is, because Comments are under Reviews, theyâre clearly down prioritised by Viki. A random user is going to write a Review and not even know there is such a thing as a Comment.
one more reason is that as soon as youâre done watching a show, Viki prompts you with that âWanna Rate this Show?â page, so even people who donât really want or know how to review might just give it 1 or 10 stars to leave the page. I do that with WhatsApp and Teams feedback pages(that âRate Your Experienceâ page that pops up after you finish a call), whatâs to stop people from doing it on Viki?
Okay Iâm a little mad over the fact that Kiss Goblin went from being rated 9.6 to 9.3
To be fair, it deserves a 9.3, but you can blame my being emotionally connected to it 
. I seriously loved the filler-ness of it. Short and sweet fluffy candy.
However, THIS is what annoys me(Iâm just letting of steam, so not everything might be coherent 
):
okay, the show is for 14-18 year olds. So is it BAD for 14-18 year olds? Why bring down the rating because it doesnât cater to your age group?
If teleporting and time travelling isnât your thing DONâT RATE IT! I feel like ratings should be done by people who take production, acting as well as STRENGTH of storyline instead of what the storyline is. Why bring down a rating just because you hate the genre itself?
This doesnât even need explanation 
yes, rate it low because itâs too short.
She didnât get choked and everyoneâs stories pretty much ended well.
Of my soapbox. I apologize for taking your time.

Once again, something useful is buried inside Help Center.
Is it just me or has Viki done some changes? I watched a few movies here on Viki recently, and the âRate this showâ page never showed up at the end.
If this is a real change, Iâm grateful. This will surely cut down on a lot of unwanted, unnecessary âreviewsâ
They really are on a thread like no other, 
I am done!
Pure poetry! I am awestruck by the intricacy of their thinking processes. 
Why can someone write a review on a drama that is not yet available? And I canât. I canât even if the drama isnât available in my region, although I may have seen it elsewhere.
I was pleasantly surprised with the âMelancholiaâ page: reviews werenât available before the drama aired. Iâm sorry I didnât make a screenshot, because now of course itâs airing and reviews are there. The main talk is, again, about the age gap between the actors, just like in Young Lady and a Gentleman, and moreover why there will be a romance between ex teacher with her ex student which American reviewers find gross.
I try to stay away from MDL reviews. Iâve watched shows that I absolutely loved but then see reviews bashing it for the littlest things. Esp. the comments about a plot not being realistic enough⊠Like, hello? Youâre watching a DRAMA. This is not a documentary.
I understand not a lot of people like plots that have lots of cliches, but thatâs the whole point of a work of fiction.
Oh this is ONE thing that just keeps getting on my nerves!!
Everyone seems to want to have a âuniqueâ opinion, and that makes them say the weirdest things. I just canât understand why theyâre so obsessed with everything being ârealisticâ and 100% politically correct about every single thing They just suck out all the fun of watching dramas and being entertained. I have no problem if someone wants to voice their opinions, but over-exaggerating the tiniest details really throws a wet blanket over the fun I could have had watching the drama.
It gives me a pre-bias feeling about a drama and I hate it. I start scrutinizing all the things they point out when I wouldnât think much of it normally.
Thatâs why I donât read MDL reviews, I only skim reviews here looking for certain thing that irritate me, nasty love rivals and horrid mother-in-laws irk me too much, lol So often other things are blown out of proportion, age gaps being a big one.
Itâs the double-edged sword of reading reviews. I read them because I have to know if it is a good ending. I do not do sad or tragic, and I donât want to be blind-sided. But that also means I come across too much information about other things, too. Iâve just learned to take everything with a grain of salt.
Agree, same! If thereâs an ex that takes up too much screentime, I skip. MIL are extremely annoying.
The age gap haters are odd. People want the leads to be same age or 1-2 year difference but as soon as itâs anything more than 3 they draw the line.
Most of the time if there is a big age gap, like 5+ years, it will be listed in the drama details. Why do people even bother leaving complaints?
i skim through the reviews and then check the comments because someone always asks about the ending
I do the same on MDL. It really depends on how familiar I am with a drama beforehand anyway. If Iâm completely unfamiliar, I will do more in-depth âresearchâ. 
If something looks suspiciously like itâll have a tragic ending, I go read recaps of the ending.
Thank goodness for ppl who do recaps. (Donât bother with reviews lol)
