Book Reviews of The Complete Directory to Prime Time Network and Cable TV Shows, 1946-Present
Book Review: Almost too thick!
Summary: 4 Stars
As time goes on, this book will become even thicker. But for the money, it's a good buy. It would have gotten 5 stars from me if it had included daytime soap operas, as a previous edition had. For that reason, my wife is disappointed. But as the title indicates, "Prime Time . . ."
Next time I'll be more careful and read closer.
