Corrections
A public score should be auditable. A public error should be visible when it changes what a reasonable reader would take from the work.
Policy effective July 16, 2026. Last reviewed July 16, 2026.
No material corrections recorded
This public log begins July 16, 2026. Earlier routine updates are not represented as a complete historical correction record. Score revisions, which are a separate category, are logged below and predate this policy.
Published score revisions
A revision is not a correction. It is recorded here because a score is a public claim, and a reader who saw the earlier number deserves to find out what happened to it.
156 to 181 Stimulating to Masterclass
TVI originally scored the series 156 and published it as Stimulating. On re-examination it scored 181 across Cognitive Stimulation 46, Educational Value 44, and Craft & Quality 46, which places it in the Masterclass tier. The revision was driven by the rubric, not by the work. The methodology developed between the two assessments, and the earlier score reflected a narrower reading of educational value than the published rubric now supports.
This is the largest score revision TVI has published. The prior number is recorded here permanently rather than being replaced quietly. The series was subsequently designated TVI Kids Essential #2, ratified 2026-06-25.
When a revision changes a tier, the change is noted on the title page and entered here. TVI does not adjust a score in response to access, a screener, a publicist, a distributor, or a commercial relationship, and no revision in this log originated from any of those.
What receives a correction
- A material error in a name, date, credit, quotation, plot sequence, or description of what occurs in the work.
- A mathematical error in the score or an inconsistency between the dimension scores, total, tier, and published methodology.
- A substantive misapplication of the rubric that changes a score or the meaning of the criticism.
- A missing disclosure, material conflict, incorrect asset credit, or broken attribution to a source.
Spelling, punctuation, formatting, accessibility labels, and broken links may be repaired without a correction note when the change does not alter meaning.
How a correction appears
A material correction is placed on the affected page and entered here. It identifies the original publication date, the correction date, what was wrong, what changed, and whether the conclusion or score changed.
When a score changes, the prior score remains visible in the correction note. TVI does not silently replace a materially different judgment.
Updates are not always corrections
A review may be updated when a new season, release, interview, source, or streaming fact becomes available. An update is labeled separately when the earlier work was accurate at publication. A changed opinion is described as a reassessment, not as a correction.
