How do you like the new TV Guide?
I hate it! The funny part is I just subscribed to it for the first time, only to find out it doesn't list what's on TV!

:banghead:

1. I heard about the change while driving
and about drove off the road in shock. I can't think of anything more worthless than a tv guide which doesn't have tv listings.

5. Call me resistance to change, but.......
I absolutely hate the new format. Now more of a gossip rag than a resource for listings. No local listings anymore...they tell you to go on line for local listings. No listing for local telecast for NFL games being broadcast in your are on Sunday. No weekday late night listings, no more daytime Saturday and Sunday listings. It stinks. Everything is generic.

If I wanted a TV gossip magazine, I would buy one. I want a easy resource to see what's on in my area. The magazine size is terrible for flipping through. I just renewed my subscription, but if I had seen the new version before hand I wouldn't have renewed.

2. Wha?
No tv listings? I thought the pages were just bigger. That is just crazy.

4. Need to clarify.
It has some listings. As long as you don't want to know what is on NBC, ABC, or CBS during the day or anything after 10:00PM at night, it's just fine.

3. I miss the little small mag
It's an interesting read sometimes, but it's hard to find what's on tv. That is what I've always needed from TV Guide. It's not handy to find out what's on the tube.

6. It sucks
Plus everything is listed as Eastern Time. The old one used to be regional. I liked it much better. I may let may subscription run out when it comes up again.
