- Sigh. I liked them better when they were not big and famous and it
- went to their heads. Remember back to days when they appeared on PBS
- with "Spot the wonder dog" for the dogs of the week. Remember when
- they use to do "Guility Pleasures" selections, and pick movies that they
- knew were "bad" or the real B-Z grade pictures, that they admitted they
- liked. I felt back then, that these were "movie critics" that actuallyt
- liked the movies. And not the critic types that feel it is their job
- to criticise everything that comes out of the cinema. Sigh I guess
- sucess will do that to you.

- Still watch their show, cause at least they show enough of the clips
- and give the premise enough for me do decide if I want to see the movie.
