  • The ultimate television reference

    For fans of television, going back to its earliest days, this book is an indispensable reference. It provides the reader with detailed information concerning his/her favorite television programs, as well as a short history of television and statistics concerning most popular programs from year to year. The only downside is that it is not up to date with current programming, but that does not diminish its usefulness in answering questions about television programs that have not been seen, or perhaps even thought of, for decades.

  • Excellent Refererence Guide for Primetime TV and Cable!

    It would be good if updated versions could be offered on a regular basis.... Other than that, I can think of no way to make it better..... Very thorough and inclusive!

  • Prime time tv directory

    I had a version that covered through the 1994 season, and I wanted an update. I like the format, the weekly tv grids through the years, the ratings, and the list of Emmy winners. Massive book, very entertaining.

  • Highly informative.

    This was last volume in series. Enormous amount of information about tv shows. Only regret is that nobody is producing an updated volume. Only goes to 2007.
