I feel like flaming.  I just watched "Sneak Previews" last night.  That
partner of Jeffrey Lyons' (I've a mental block on his name) is really
beginning to bug me.  They had their show about the worst movies of 1982.
This guy kept disagreeing with the junk that Lyons hated, saying they
were actually good movies with good messages.  At one point Lyons looked
at him, with a courteous smile for the cameras, and said "You know, you're
the ONLY one who likes these films!"

Besides this, the guy's reviews are often kind of wierd, and his manner of
speaking really irks me.  It seems as if he enjoys being on that "fun" show
more than he wants to be a responsible critic.

I wish they'd kick him off.  Yes I know Siskel and Ebert still do a show,
but I can't always be around for it, so I still would appreciate having
Sneak Previews be useful to me.

Is there any sympathy for me out in net land?
