    It is sad (from a nostalgic view) to see it go, but the last few hosts i had no real vested interest in.
    Siskel and Ebert's passion drove the show.
    nowadays, it barely stands out from the countless tabloid shows or online talkback heavy sites.

    the difference is like hearing Martin Scorsese talk intimately about the nuance of a particular film (which i could listen to for hours) or hearing a 15 year old review "Lawrence of Arabia".

    That's why i think it's time has come and should respectfully shelved.

    The pair were always great. You'd always agree with one and disagree with the other.

    Same thing happens with Phillips and Scott. They remind me of Siskel and Ebert a lot.
    They even have the same physique.
    Phillips= Taller critic who looks at the pros and cons of a movie just like Siskel

    Scott= Smaller critic who anylyzes many aspects of the film to review it.
