Ebert and Roper

[Fast Learner]

Sounds to me a lot more like Groucho's brother Karl.

I've always thought Roeper comes across as kind of a weasel.

Arrogant, obnoxious, know-it-all ... not exactly the "common man" critics.

Yup. Siskel was arrogant, too, but he seemed to be able to get away with it, as he came across as actually knowing a hell of a lot about what he was discussing. Roeper just seems snide (though a bit less so than when he first filled the vacant seat).

I was disapointed that while Ebert was shopping for replacements for Gene that he didn't have Jay Sherman try out.

Because he stinks! He stinks! He stinks! He stinks! He stinks!
