It will be a shame to see this program go away. There were people and topics that were not what I considered the best, however there was no screaming guests (Fox), moderators who talked over the guests because they liked the sound of their own voice (Tweety and others) or an endless stream of commercials (all of the others).

The discussion will be less for it's disappearance.
