I actually really like Michael Phelps too, and I had really hoped the show would live on as Phelps and Roeper but disney had other plans. <br><br>By the way, have you guys heard that Ebert recently mentioned on his blog that he and Roeper are going to be returning to tv soon with a new show? I can't imagine Ebert can be on the show because of his surgury's (he can't speak), so I'm not sure exactly what their planning, but its worth looking out for.

I had only truely gotten into S&E about a year ago through the online archives (I had a gap year before starting my Film Studies course). If anyone would ask me 'Siskel or Ebert', I think I have soft spot for Siskel, though isn't Ebert the more popular one? Even Richard Roeper's grown on me a little (having not liked his giving Wallace and Gromit 'Thumbs Down').
