    MARCUS COMPLETES ACQUISITION OF CABLE SYSTEM IN ALABAMA AND
       DIVESTITURE OF CABLE SYSTEMS IN DELAWARE AND MARYLAND

Dallas, TX.---Marcus Cable announced today that it has completed the
previously announced acquisition of the assets of Mountain Brook
Cablevision, Inc. and Shelby Cable, Inc.  The cable television system
serves approximately 23,000 customers in the Mountain Brook and Shelby
County areas of suburban Birmingham, adjacent to Marcus' existing
systems in the Birmingham market.  As a result of this acquisition,
Marcus now serves approximately 114,000 customers in the greater
Birmingham metropolitan area.

The new Marcus Cable system serves the two broader areas of Mountain
Brook and northern Shelby County from a single headend and includes
portions of the communities of Leeds, Hoover, Vestavia Hills,
Irondale, Indian Springs Village and Pelham, as well as unincorporated
areas of Shelby County and Jefferson County. 

In an unrelated transaction, Marcus Cable announced today that it has
completed the divestiture of certain of its non-clustered cable
television systems located in Delaware and Maryland to Comcast
Corporation.  The cable television systems serve approximately 26,500
customers in the Delmarva peninsula from the eastern coast of
Maryland, along the Chesapeake Bay, eastward to the Atlantic Ocean
through central Delaware from two headends.

In commenting on the transactions, Jeffrey A. Marcus, Chairman and CEO
said, "The acquisition of the Birmingham area systems and the sale of
Delaware and Maryland are part of our previously announced strategy
of bringing greater focus to our core clusters.  We are pleased to
bring the Mountain Brook and Shelby County areas into the Marcus
family of systems and look forward to providing the highest quality
care to our new customers in the area.  Although we reluctantly leave
the states of Delaware and Maryland, we are confident that our
customers in the area will be very well served under the excellent
management of Comcast."

Marcus Cable is principally engaged in the management and operation
of domestic wired telecommunications networks, including cable
television systems, distance education networks and internet services. 
It is currently the nation's tenth largest cable operator serving over
1.2 million customers in 18 states.  More information on Marcus Cable
can be found on the company's website on the internet at
www.marcuscable.com.
