    I was a huge fan of their show, but this episode aired long before I
    started watching. I thought they hated Star Trek (and sci-fi in
    general). One of the things that annoyed me about Siskel and Ebert and >mainstream critics in general is they tended to give genre movies bad >reviews.

    . . . and we didn't know how good we had it when producers of action- adventure-thriller-suspense movies done as Western or Science Fiction
    genre movies were trying to exploit an audience and not please
    mainstream critics.

    Critics (movies, TV, books, art, etc.) are simply snobs. They only like
    the arty-farty garbage that nobody else would ever want to watch / read
    / see. :-)

    They often announce that something is "classic", when in reality it is
    utterly boring, yet lots of people stupidly rush out to see / buy it
    anyway.
