I was disappointed when At the Movies was cancelled last month after its 30 year run in various formats going back to when it first started with Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel. Well it appears that the show's disappearance won't last for very long. Earlier this week Roger Ebert announced that At the Movies will be returning home to public television next January. The show will feature two new critics, but Ebert himself will have a segment on the show where he will use a computer to speak for him (he lost his lower jaw after a bout with cancer a few years ago). The trademark thumbs up/down will also be back. All in all it seems like a good show and one that is still needed, even in today's day and age when everyone is a critic. Below is a short video highlighting what we can expect when the show premieres next year.
