recent changes have severly reduced the quality of EW September 6, 2008
I had been subscribing to EW for about 3 to 4 years. I have just decided not to renew. Here is why and also why you should think about not purchasing EW. About 2 or 3 months ago, EW changed its design. The move was supposed to re-energize what has become ordinary and increase EW's appeal. What actually happened was that EW increased the font of the text and the size of some of the pictures in some sections. EW did not similarly increase the number of pages it dedicated to the same sections, however. Consequently, the book review section shrunk from about 20 or so reviews to around 7 or 8. The same thing happened to the music review section. EW essentially reduced its content and call it a refashioning of the magazine. Clever. So I wonder whether the re-styling was not really just an attempt to hide that EW decided not to cover music and books anymore and fired its staff (or the staff just left and EW didn't want to hire anyone else). In any event, the only reason I bought the magazine in the first place was for the reviews. If you are like me, then I suggest to look elsewhere. If all you care about is the first part of the magazine, i.e., whatever the studios are trying to sell to you at the moment, then this is the magazine for you.

GOOD FOR REVIEWS August 15, 2008
1 out of 1 found this review helpful

I think this magazine is among the best of the entertainment genre. But I do agree with others who say it has a great deal of filler. I must admit when the magazine comes each week I quickly turn to the reviews and I think their reviews are excellent. I devour the new movies, television, dvd, music and book reviews and they help me plan what to see, watch and read. Very helpful. But I pay for the whole subscription for this small amount of the magazine. It is valuable to me though so I buy it.

I very rarely read the stories. I read more on entertainment stories on my computer on AOL. Even when the story is on a celebrity or subject I like I find the articles boring and slight. Also, over the past few issues they have changed their format and now the magazine is even less desirable to me. I think it will be my last year of subscribing.

Buy it HERE! July 5, 2008
If you want this magazine, BUY IT HERE! I made the mistake of ordering it when I was at the check-out line at Best Buy. It got me a few free issues and then automatically billed me for the rest of the subscription. What I didn't realize was that it renewed at a six month subscription for $44.95!!! Can you believe that? $90 a year! When I found that out, I immediately canceled and am about to renew it through Amazon. A MUCH better deal.

OK Mag Lots of Filler May 11, 2008
I like this magazine. It is not bad but I have a big complaint with it. It is and has always been full of filler. I know it is a weekly so they have to put some content in it but it has way too many 'Lists'. They fill an entire magazine with 'The Top 100' this or 'The Top 100' that. And then a legend like Richard Widmark or Dan Fogelberg dies and they give them a tiny picture and a couple of sentences. But since 'Premiere Magazine' stopped publishing it is about all I can get.

magazine May 11, 2008
The magazine is a great price. But I could look through it at the store to see if a want to buy it or not. The stores around me did not have it so a got it through the mail, but now they have it so I go to the store to get it.
