Error on the rating of the episode Oeymandias from Breaking bad

I just noticed that this episode from Season 5 has a rate of 10/10 for 128295 votes !!! IMPOSSIBLE....

All the other episodes have between 20.000 and 100.000 voters.

Is it a bug or ... ?

Hi Bernie66250 -

 

Our voting system already detects and defeats attempts to stuff the ballot and skew the rating, as demonstrated by the difference between the weighted average and the arithmetic mean on the vast majority of titles in the database.
                                       
For more information on "weighted average", please see our Ratings guide: https://help.imdb.com/article/imdb/track-movies-tv/weighted-average-ratings/GWT2DSBYVT2F25SK?ref_=helpsrall#

 

Cheers!

Champion

I guess you mean Ozymandias

https://www.imdb.com/title/tt2301451/

Here's a list of the series episodes, ranked by #votes:

https://www.imdb.com/search/title/?series=tt0903747&sort=num_votes,desc

Indeed, the next one down has fewer than 90k votes, then the next under 45k.

Looking at the episode ratings demographics, it seems all subgroups agree with that 10.0 assessment.

I don't think I see any cause for concern.
