A Michelin Star is apparently the kiss of death for many restaurants

Do you remember that last time a trusted friend told you "had" to see that show, try that restaurant, read that book?

Did you have high expectations only to be disappointed by the recommendations? 

I, for one, do not get the hype about "Severance" or "Succession," which several trusted friends have recommended. But I rave about "Shrinking," and "The Studio," and the same friends think I'm nuts.
