  1. TV pitches: So I've got this idea for a show ...

    Two weeks from now, TV networks will announce their new slate of shows for next season. The majority of these series will be variations on a formula. Procedurals. High-concept sci-fi and fantasy dramas. Nighttime soaps. Comedies starring familiar faces. This is how it works. Out-of-the-ordinary shows tend to be too risky when the goal is big ratings.

    We all knew Roger Ebert. Even those who knew Roger only through his words and insights felt a bond. That was one of Ebert's many gifts, and with his death leaving such a profound void, it is easy to overlook all that we still have from him.

  9. Thanks to Roger Ebert, 1942-2013

    The first time I encountered Roger Ebert, I detested him. The second time I encountered him, I liked him even less. In later years, I learned that Ebert's relationship with Gene Siskel progressed the same way: animosity, then grudging respect, then love and admiration. The last two feelings might not have been as strong without the first two; sometimes one intense reaction begets another.

    When Anthony Bourdain was in town last summer taping a Chicago-themed episode of his Travel Channel show “The Layover,” he asked various people, including me, to name the quintessential Chicagoan, and a consensus quickly emerged.
