I laughed. Out loud.

I hate them BOTH. Mankiewicz has RUINED TCM ever since he smarmed in, UGH. Why can't Rose McGowen introduce everything? She has a true respect and breadth of knowledge of film and she's not a pompous as* either, like those 2.

UGH! What bores!

And Lyons has NO business being a film reviewer. I don't care what his TVQ is or who his daddy is.

It's rare I dislike a critic as much as EITHER of them. The combination is purely DEADLY.

Good riddance.

P.S. Capone at AINT IT COOL, the first to review these "do*chebags" (his words, not mine) just wrote a SCATHING send off to them.

Lyons is a kiss-ass and Mankiewicz is a eldritch little toad. Glad they're outta there.

Guess they're just two has-Bens now.

Thgis is the best news I've heard in a long time! Ben L. is possibly the only "movie critic" who can make Jeffrey L. look smart.

Yeah, I'm so delighted. My husband and I caught the first episode of the "Bens" show and took At The Movies off our TiVo in disgust. I will be so happy to put it on again.

I can't even imagine anyone actually watching the show. Regardless of who's on it! But then, I can't imagine anyone watching CSI (any of them), either; but millions do!
