I had a very recent conversation with Nate when we were talking objective and subjective quality of work. I held that there was an objective quality, which was something you couldn't attribute to the word 'taste'.

Therefore in the spirit of operationalization I say 'Futurama is a very good show, but it is neither as good as many people think, nor is it significant (In the same way that early Simpsons and The Beatles were). This is distinct from saying that I don't like it as much as some people because I'm talking about its objective quality.'

And now I sound like everything I hate.

EDIT: For the record, I overrate shows all the time. I'm a hypocrite like that.
