Pardon the Interruption
Pardon the Interruption (abbreviated PTI) is an American sports talk television show that airs weekdays primarily on ESPN but can air on various TV channels in the event of live sports or breaking news. It has been hosted by Tony Kornheiser and Michael Wilbon since the beginning. They discuss and debate the top stories of that particular day in "sports... and other stuff" (as Kornheiser put it in the show's original promo). Similar in format to Gene Siskel and Roger Ebert's At the Movies, PTI is known for its playful banter between the cohosts, humorous and often loud tone, and a "rundown" graphic which lists the topics yet to be discussed on the right-hand side of the screen. The show's popularity has led to the creation of similar shows on ESPN and similar segments on other series, and the rundown graphic has since been implemented on the morning editions of SportsCenter, among many imitators.
