Gets me wondering... When was the last time something game show-related made the cover of TV Guide?
Logged
It was a golden age of daytime network television... Game Shows... Hosted by people who actually knew that the game was the star... And I wish it was still that way - both that game shows were on all morning and that they were hosted by actual game show hosts. - Bob Purse, Inches Per Second

2/2/01, Regis and Alex on the cover.  Could Bob Barker have been on the cover around his retirement?

Just did a quick glance through Wiki's covers archive. Other than some reality/competition shows, the Reege/Alex cover is indeed the last one, although the year 2006 is incomplete, so maybe Howie Mandel made it onto a cover right after D/ND debuted?

No Barker (or Drew) covers in 2007.

Wiki says that there are three covers for the upcoming game shows issue, one for each host, of course.

True, but only because I canceled my subscription after they changed the format.

Today I learned that TV Guide is still a thing.

Also that TV Guide's cover has the same format as every other magazine that my wife gets.

Today I learned that TV Guide costs $4.99. I got a copy with Strahan on the cover and read the article.

$4 frickin' 99? Sheesh.

Our public library gives us 65 different magazine subscriptions for free. TV Guide isn't one of them.

I'm not exactly sure what I'm paying with a subscription, but it's less than fifty cents an issue.

The current offer looks to be $16.50 for 48 weeks, 56 if you pay by credit card.

30¢/week isn't bad, but I have better things to put it towards.
