Both parts (Thanksgiving night and the following Monday) of Gene and Roger's 1992 appearance with Bob Costas on his talk show "Later". Recorded as they aired on WJAR Channel 10 Providence with original ads at 1:35am both nights.

Siskel was a master reporter, whilst Ebert was a master essayist. Siskel was so well informed and was so good at obtaining inside information, while Ebert could write sonatas of film reviews almost effortlessly. That’s the main reason why they were so good together- they were two sides of the same journalism coin.

I started watching these guys when they were still on PBS, and I think it was called "Sneak Previews". I so fell in love with their analysis and banter, I took a film criticism course my sophomore year in college, and they became a regular part of my life until Siskel's death about 18 years later.

@@lerm2866 But not like JUJUBES, the most cursed candy sold at tables set up in the hallway outside high school auditoriums for Saturday matinee movies. Rarely eating more than a few of these mini-pail shaped, 1/4 inch sized, fruit-flavored beauties, the rest would become the perfect projectile for the prepubescent lads who fired them at will at surrounding noggins in the dark. You couldn't help, but return home with at least one JUJUBE wedged in the tread of your sneaker and another in a tooth. School custodians found them to be the bane of their existence every Monday morning, when they had to clean the auditorium. I wouldn't be surprised if there was some under-funded, non-renovated high schools, still today, retaining some of those gooey pellets, stuck to an array of crevices, dating from the '60s....authentic historical artifacts!

The globalization problem in movies has gotten about 100x worse since this was filmed. Why it's all comic book movies now. Few dramas. Not even many comedies anymore. Too much dialogue, too many subtitles for non English speaking audiences. Not so if you just glow stuff up for 2 hours. Where there televisionization comment is dated is in the fact that TV shows generally are now actually more complex than movies.

I finally got around to watching it in its entirety this past year, and I didn’t like the way Spike Lee handled it. But everyone’s entitled to an opinion. But I do, however, like that Radio Shack commercial for the radio-controlled cars.
