In 1975 Roger Ebert and Gene Siskel invented a new genre of television
with their movie review show, Coming Soon To A Theater Near You, which became Sneak Previews, and which, in its various incarnations over about 36 years, became one of the longest running shows in television history: At The Movies; Siskel & Ebert; Ebert & Roeper and Ebert Presents At The Movies. Our dear friends at Mint Media Works put together a lovely short history of the show.
