I have to watch this later: 1995 interview with the brothers:

OP here. Sorry to be the bearer of bad news.

The surviving Magliozzi brother has been behind the continued broadcast of the show for the last 2 years and he is supportive of future broadcasts of it.

Of course, I agree that the truly sad part is that there will be no new shows. I believe a big part - probably the biggest part - of the magic in the show was the brothers' interaction with each other; it was never really a show about cars.

Very sad. Used to listen to them with my dad - who also passed away from complications of Alzheimer's.

+1

Their accents, wittiness, humility, laid back demeanor.... remind me of home.....

HUGE loss.
