This show isn't great to begin with given that Roeper is no Gene Siskel. I'm not a big Ben Lyons fan, but Ben Mankiewicz is alright.

I'd still take Lyons and Bailes' Reel Talk over this any day.

I've been watching this show since I was a little kid when Gene Siskel was still around. And still watch it now.

Roeper's pretty cool. Bummer they're both leaving it now.

What do you mean with the Zach Braff comment? Being done after season 8?

Boo, I tend to like what Ebert has to say. Is he still doin the reviews in the Sun-Times?

I don't mind Roeper but I tend to agree with Micheal Philips more.

I really enjoyed Roeper, hopefully he will get a show elsewhere.

Never really watched. Now when Ebert quits writing reviews, then I'll care.
