I think they changed it because everyone was dumping on certain shows and people due to politics.

Such as Amy Schumer, or maybe she just sucks...

It was definitely the latter. At least for her latest special.  Even people who normally like her were giving it 1 and 2 star ratings.  And really I think that's what ultimately led them to change, her complaining about her score to any media outlet that would listen and the media was all too happy  to push this as an anti-Trump thing.  It's pretty sad when celebrities' heads get so big they think even their shits are golden.  Maybe a few more box office bombs will humble her somewhat.

@ OP

No doubt about it, the new system sucks.  The 5 star was more accurate. Plus, if you didn't like the score a movie got, just rate it yourself and your rating is the one displayed.  Only people who are easily triggered would hate the 5 star system. The new system doesn't even show a like to dislike ratio, like on YouTube.
