I dumped my subscription a year or two ago. Did you know that TV Guide was sold for a $1 last month? I'm not talking about an issue. I mean the magazine company.

Re: more timely action heroes -- How about Kara Thrace and Sarah Connor?

LOlz - Apparently Ent, you don't hang out on Fark.com. There's A LOT of sites that reference MacGyver. Not to mention the Hoff (don't hassle the Hoff), the list goes on.

Jack would kick all their asses! He's the man.

I remember when TV Guide was all small. I think it jumped the shark when they made it regular magazine size. It just wasn't the same. Big ole fail on their part.

i dunno about toughest, but magnum had the best legs!
AND the best 'stache. i still don't know where the phrase "porn 'stache" came from!

Here, not even the local newspaper has the right shows listed for the measly channels we get.

And what they do list for our channels is often wrong.

So I stopped getting TV Guide 20 years ago when it was *only* $50-some a year, which was a lot for us at the time.

Maybe all the people polled stopped really watching TV back then, too, like we did!

what about the friggin A Team?

BTVS rocked.

Riley: I hear ya. Got some, uh, big stories to tell you, too, if we even get half a second.
Buffy: Did ya die?
Riley: No.
Buffy: I'm gonna win.

Even a decade ago, there would have been no females on the list at all, let alone the top five.

Every few years TV Guide sends me a free 1 year subscription--I don't know where they come from, but when my year is up they try to get me to renew. My son likes it so he can plan the following week in advance--but I would never subscribe at this point--not when the listings are free.
They should have had MacGruber on the list--that's funny!

the smartest thing tv guiude did was to go online and take over the program guide channel from cable tv. this still ensures its brand.

I can't think of any TV action heroes other than those listed. Does that make me old?

I remember wishing my parents would subscribe to TV Guide...back in the 60's!

Isn't MacGyver still on reruns on Spike or USA Network?

I loved that show.

2008-11-18T10:48:00.000-08:00

I guess all the readers aren't 80, since Buffy is on there. That's a pretty big mid-20's genre.

Who the heck reads TV guide? I thought thats what IMDB was for!
