Topical to "Politics on TV"...
In the USA, about 4 or 5 years past now, a weekly broadcast on public TV called "The McLaughlin Group" was fantastic watching. McLaughlin served as host accompanied each weak by 4 panilists - 2 staunch Republicans and 2 Democrats.
The pace, topics covered and dialog was consistently top notch.
The McLaughlin Group eventually reached such popularity that it was hilariously parodied on Saturday Night Live:
Sadly, McLaughlin passed away about 4 years ago and the show seems to have died off.
