Roger Ebert joined his long time frenemie Gene Siskel in the post credit world last week. So now is as good as time as any to look back on their careers.

Random Fact:

Mr. Ebert once dated Oprah Winfrey. While they didn’t hit off, Ebert did give her the advice of owning and syndicating her show rather than just signing up with a network to make the show for her. Winfrey followed through on that and wound up being the billionaire she is now because of it.

Reviews:

Siskel & Ebert were famous for not agreeing. In fact, they hated each other. Here they argue about, off all things, Baby’s Day Out.

By the way, if the title of this post also wasn’t a title of an article in MAD Magazine, it should of been.
