It is very unfortunate that Mr. Patinkin is leaving one of the most interesting shows on t.v. It was one of my favorites. My son (23) and I sat and watched every episode aired. We loved spending time together. We even tivo'd episodes so we wouldn't miss any. We will continue to watch until the show doesn't live up to it's reputation. mrod
