Actor Ron Perlman said the fate of a television show should be in the hands of fans, rather than critics and network executives.

The 65-year-old actor is launching his new Amazon series "Hand of God", reported Digital Spy.

"I'm over professional TV critics. I think that what the internet has done is... I don't trust anything anymore. Everybody is falling all over themselves to just perpetuate their existences, and they're willing to say anything and do anything to get attention," Perlman said.

"That means you're no longer really reviewing my show - you're actually using my show and my efforts as a springboard to call attention to what a great journalist you are. So I've come to discover that I would much rather trust the guy who has nothing at stake other than, 'This is what I want to watch to be entertained' - they got no agenda."
 

"Hand of God" was one of a number of pilots that Amazon made available on its Prime Video service - with positive audience reaction leading to a full series.
