This is my favorite show and I have not missed many episodes. I don't think the woman who does the discussions with him in the directors' chairs adds much, though - she usually just agrees with Marcus and doesn't have much creative to say. (He should watch those shows and see how they come off - not much use for them except to relive memories of other shows.) My favorite episode of all times is one of the first ones - or maybe even the first one - on TV when Marcus went into the car dealership where the owner had easy chairs for folks to watch TV and only about five cars in the parking lot - complete with star-studded ceiling. I STILL laugh about that showroom! But I was hooked from that episode on.
