“Why are you not watching Outnumbered?” Banfield responded via the live-stream. “Because it’s not as smart as this show, guys. That’s just the way it is. I mean, you can have coffee klatch and chat about stories, or you can learn stuff from smart folk, and you’re look at two of the smartest ones right there.”

Agreed, Ms. Banfield. Nicely stated.
