Season 1 Review:
Depending on the subjects mocked and viewers' personal sacred cows, Root of All Evil won't appeal to everyone on a weekly basis (future episodes include Donald Trump vs. Viagra, Paris Hilton vs. Dick Cheney and Las Vegas vs. the human body), but it is a successful attempt to re-package stand-up comedy for prime time.

Season 1 Review:
The debaters make the most of this arbittary contretemps, but Black is a weak link. [14 Mar 2008, p.71]
