This review is from: Big Book of TV Guide Crosswords: Test Your TV IQ Qith More Than 250 Great Puzzles from TV Guide! (Paperback)

While this is a great idea- If you like easy crossword puzzles, who doesn't want a booklet of TV Guide crosswords to do? However, the bulk of these puzzles are from the first twenty years of TV guide, and have lots of questions based on the stars and shows of the time. Which means that young folks who don't know a whole lot about the Lawrence Welk show or Rawhide, are not going to be able to do these puzzles.

If you're older and want to relive your childhood TV, this may be for you. But not if you are younger...

I'd love to see a yearly crossword publication, or biannual, that could give puzzlers a more modern set to do. Both this book, and the sequel, are just too dated to be worth the cash.
