I get the distinct impression that TV guide is starting to resemble
rats fleeing a sinking ship. How long before it stops publishing?

You do know that MA left TV guide a while back?

Theoretically, TV Guide HAS stopped "publishing", if you mean that in
the truest sense of the word. There is no more print edition of TV
Guide.

I thought they were going for a larger sized mag with no local schedules.

They do still publish, it has no schedule in it, is a large sized
magazine. I've noticed it's alot harder to find at the
super market.

Aggggh! I'm sick of "TV Guide Is Dying" threads.

No, it's not because I subscribe to TV Guide (I do, but that's beside
the point). I'm sick of "TV Guide Is Dying" threads in the same way
that I'm sick of Wonder Woman casting threads. Waaaaaaaay overdone.

LORELAI: I am so done with plans. I am never, ever making one again.
It never works. I spend the day obsessing over why it didn't work
and what I could've done differently. I'm analyzing all my shortcomings
when all I really need to be doing is vowing to never, ever make a plan
ever again, which I'm doing now, having once again been the innocent
victim of my own stupid plans. God, I need some coffee.

Both TV Guide and WW-casting threads are waaaaaaaaay too common on
rec.arts.tv. I've even posted some of the WW-casting threads to atgg,
but the novelty has (mostly) worn off.

By WW you mean Wonder Woman and not West Wing (which, FTR, is actually
THE West Wing, BID), correct??

Just checking to make sure...

But Rob, sweetie, this *isn't* rec.arts.tv, and some of us don't read
rec.arts.tv.

Yeah. I re-read earlier today what I had written, and went, "Oops...
