Every so often, I’d find myself flipping through the channels late on a Sunday night and would stumble onto At the Movies with Ebert and Roeper. The show is on at some crazy time slot (something like 12:35 Sunday night/Monday morning), but every time I caught it I really enjoyed watching the reviews. I would see an episode, like it, and later realize that it would be a good show to record each week, only to forget about it and not actually set it up. I did this about three different times.

Well, since I’m writing this, I’ve obviously remembered to set it up to record. I probably never would have remembered if I hadn’t found their website, where you can browse through most of their old reviews. It’s great for wasting time online; I personally like to try and find the best movies I can that got two thumbs down (so far, O Brother, Where Art Thou? and Reservoir Dogs are winning). They don’t hesitate to recommend against a movie if they didn’t like it, which is a good thing for a critic, but it also means they’ll have a few that lots of people disagree with after the fact.

Anyway, I’d give a pretty high recommendation to recording the show and for checking out their website.
