User reviews

When this works, it's very handy! But it only randomly works. The button will always show on the IMDB page, but half the time when you hit Request, it throws an error. Other times, works like a charm. I can't figure out what's changing honestly, I've restarted my overseer instance, browser, server, everything trying to see if it's based on an expired session or something, but I can't find the logic. One star and uninstalling because as much as I like this when it works, it's not good enough to outweigh the agitation of hitting a button and getting an error.
