Fun read
This is a fun read.The articles are entertaining and short.Good to pass some time.Excellent for the plane!

Wonderful Magazine
People is a weekly American magazine of celebrity and human interest stories,the magazine runs a roughly mix of celebrity and human interest stories,People is perhaps best known for its yearly special issues naming "The 50 Most Beautiful People", "The Best and Worst Dressed", and "The Sexiest Man Alive".Ithink people magazine is a wonderful magazine because I can keep in touch on what is happy to the actors and actress. What the good movies are that are good for me to watch. I think ya'll do a good job with the magazine. It is worth reading every time I get it.People also includes reviews of new books, cds and movies.
Enjoyable
An interesting and enjoyable magazine if you like reading about celebs. If not: This is not the magazine for you. Very rarely will you see someone on the cover of people for being involved in politics or saving someone's life or whatever. Instead you'll learn about Branjelina's baby, the ongoing divorce struggles of Jess and Nick, and other such stuff. But I am not condemming the magazine; I myself enjoy sitting down with it every week and would reccommend it to you. ... Read more

People is the best
I've been buying this magazine since it first came out. I let my subscription lapse for a few months and sure missed getting People in the mail on Fridays. It's back and I'm glad!!

Same old song and dance
I echo the same gripe that other reviewers have voiced here: The magazine covers the same handful of people week after week after boring week.How many times is a reader going to see no talents such as Jessica Simpson, Lindsay Lohan, the Tom Cruise-Katie Holmes joke, and THE most overrated, overhyped people of all time Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie on the cover and not get tired of it?
Tinsel talk
Once years ago 'People' would have, if I am not mistaken , articles on people outside the worlds of glitz and tinsel. Now it seems to have degenerated into another kind of low- pop-culture mag which belongs to what Mencken called 'the booboisie'.

Has Seen Much Better Days
I used to really like US magazine. I have been collecting every issue each week for several years now. But wait! Has anyone else noticed that this magazine has drastically changed since the beginning of this year? Where are all the interesting articles and info on the celebrities, movies and music? There's no more than a thumbnail's sketch of info on anything now. It's all photos and quickie hype. It has no more substance. What happened to this good magazine?

Delivery Problems!
Why is it that Us Weekly can't get a copy to me weekly?Sometimes three weeks will go by without an issue.Then I'll receive three in one week.Us Weekly assures me that everything is normal and that they ship them just as soon they come off the printing presses.I'm not buying their story or the magazine again.

US Weekly - The Best Celebrity Gossip Magazine
As an avid gossip lover and big-time magazine reader, I whole-heartedly recommend US Weekly as the best magazine subscription you will buy this year.As a woman in her twenties who subscribes to all of the celebrity magazines, I would have to say that US Weekly is hands down the most entertaining magazine of them all.They have the most up to date photos, pretty accurate stories, and entertaining staff writers.Their weekly columns on "Who Wore It Best" and "Fashion Police" are laugh out loud funny.

Boring, boring, boring

Entertainment weekly magazine
Indispensable guide to what is happening in movies,television,books,and popular culture. Comprehensive,witty,well-written and,of course,entertaining!

Entertainment Weekly
I love this magazine and I look forward to getting it in the mail every single week, unless if the last one was a double issue. Then I have to wait another whole week, which can sometimes be painful. I love the reviews and the magazine is funny, fresh and it keeps me up to date on movies, TV, music, and DVDs. The onlt complaint I have is lately they don't have as many reviews for urban releases. ... Read more

Do you like learning?
I've actually met people who have said, "I'm too old to learn new things." And younger folk who have said, "That's too much like being in class." If you're one of these people, don't bother with Mental Floss magazine, or with going to school any more, or for that matter, with continuing to be alive in the first place. Living is learning, and this magazine helps edify and entertain you while you're doing all that living and learning. Most highly recommended.
Wonderful,silly trivia!
This is truly one of my favorite magazines!It's been a favorite gift for friends and I know that it is being passed to others so each issue gets multiple readings.Of course, my issues are safely in my home library since some things are too good to share.

THE BEST REVIEW YOU'LL EVER READ

Best fashion magazine available
This is the best fashion magazine on the market.Very realistic with budgets too.It shows different ways in which everyone can be fashionable (on any budget).I also enjoy the beauty articles because they have original ideas to stay in style and keep your skin looking beaufiful.

The Magazine Diva Says........
InStyle magazine takes its readers into the lives of celebrities and makes them accessible. The features are very informative and fun. I enjoy the Man of Style feature and the Entertaining guide best! For more on mags, visit my blog at magazinediva.typepad.com.

Step back from the cover Oprah
Regardless of the quality of the magazine, it is really annoying to see Oprah on every single cover! and to make it worst, she does not pick "regular Oprah shots", instead you look at every issue's front cover and ask yourself "How did they take that picture? She doesn't even look like her!" It's as if Oprah is telling all of us "See how I can look like?" Every month is just a new testimony from Oprah, that money does do wonders.
Every home could own this magazine
As an author I find Oprah's magazine to be the most inspirational any human being could use to start their month."Divorcing a wife because you can not be all she needs is a very loving act.Everyone deserves intimacy-emotional and physical.If a gay or bisexual man loves his wife, her happiness will be more important to him than his own.Setting her free to allow her the opportunity to be loved as she deserves to be, is the ultimate expression of love." Dennis J. Schleicher
I love the show but the magazine...
I love Oprah and her show ut the magazine is SOOOOOO full of advertisements that it has lost me a bit.There is not much content to the magazine.If you aren't interested in the few main articles that month.There is not much there. ... Read more

Liked it when she got it
Ordered my wife a subscription last christmas.
Used to be the best
About two years ago, Vanity Fair was not only the best magazine of the year, but maybe all time.I would read it from cover to cover.
One of the better glossy magazines out there in the world of make believe
I don't normally like glossy magazines that think too much of themselves, I think that they were invented to be dumped on coffee tables to look good when you have visitors around for coffee but if you want a really good and intelligent read, buy TIME or Newsweek.

Great buy!
After checking the exorbitant prices of foreign magazines and Billboard Magazine I love my suscription to Rolling Stone Magazine. Yes, I wholeheartedly agree with the good folks that say that too many uneventful acts are being given undue praise. And yes, obviously it is not the same magazine of yesteryears. I do recognize the fact that times are indeed changing all the time and Rolling Stone has changed as well. But seriously folks, where else you are going to find the awesome deal of a Rolling Stone suscription? Talk about affordable to the masses. Yes, I checked the prices for Uncut, Mojo, Melody Maker? (or something like that) and the prices were downright ridiculous. Not everyone has the inclination to dish out $9-$12 dollars for a sucription. Oh yes, the English have the edge, their magazines are sooo vital, no air between the ears type music journalism, more and more accolades for them and abuse and criticism for Rolling Stone. I agree some of their reviews such as James Brown's "Live at the Apollo" making it a 5 star album is just not so and I bought it for the review. All these Hip-Hop taking center stage, all these blank acts that have yet to make their mark, but hey, you know what? It informs you, it lets you know what is going on out there and once in a while some serious journalism is to be enjoyed. All the politics pisses me off but some of the more dark essays sometimes grab my attention, but here is the grabber: For the same price of the ridiculous expensive imported magazines you can buy a lifetime suscription from Rolling Stones! I mean, till the day you cross the treshold and all the earthly subjects will no longer have any bearing in the state of things. If you are 20 that is 40, 50, 60 years of delivery to your door. What does that break down to? Actually and I am no Mathematician but I am sure it breaks down to Zero for an all American Music Magazine. Take your criticism overseas because Rolling Stone is a great buy any way you slice it and you can take that to the bank. Some awesome reporters have graced the covers of this magazine so do not give me any flak and some great articles too! Boo Whoo, Boo Whoo, Rolling Stone is a great buy, now what?!

Too bad they care less about music and more about what they think may be cool
I read rolling stone for the music and those who make it, not for some guilt ridden, agenda blasting editorial team that feels their politics (and guilt at being so much the establishment they wish they could hate) is something we should all read about at nauseum. when they stick to music, it's good, when they parade their shreiking political views, it's boring.
One star reviewers are correct.
Anyone with a good taste in music will hate this magazine, as it only rates bad bands from bad genres good reviews and whatever good bands are listed, are often given bad reviews.Its all pretentious pop-culture drivel for the conformist, weak-willed mainstream American.

A Poor-Man's PEOPLE magazine
This is not a TV guide.The one in my newspaper (Los Angeles Times) is better, and that's saying A LOT! This new TV Guide is more of a poor relative of People magazine what with it's short articles, gossip, movie news, etc.There isn't even a daytime listing.And, as with the TV guide in the newspaper, I guess there is no TV after midnight, as that's when the grid stops.Ridiculous!I guess we just have to stay up all night and click back and forth to see what's on after midnight, and the duration of each show.No wonder traditional television no longer exists.And because it doesn't, that makes TV Guide not necessary.

Worst of the Worst
The TV GUIDE was once a valuable weekly periodical for finding out what was playing when and where on our televisions. Everything was listed by date, time and channel. It was that simple. It has now evolved into a nightmare of cross-referencing and incoherence. There are also enormous gaps where programming is not even listed. I believe that television was once labeled to something synonymous to a vast wasteland. The TV GUIDE has now evolved into a vast wasteland unto itself.

TV GUIDE IS AWSOME
hello, I love TV GUIDE. it is such a good thing to use to see what is on. its so easy to read too, i subscribe to TV GUIDE and am a nut about it also. you should subscribe too, i reccomend it. ... Read more

entertainment industry's primary outlet
Variety is the New York Times of the entertainment world (in the USA). It's expenseive, but if you're seriously into show biz (for a living or otherwise) it's indispensible. You'll get info and reveiews way before anyone else, casting notices for film and TV, huge supplimental issues about each film/media festival, production updates (wondering what your favorite director's next film will be and where it is in the production cycle? It'll say here - whether they're in based in Hollywood, the Ukraine, or anywhere in the trackable entertainment world)Read more

Fun, educational, book that grows with your child
Our daughter was given a subscription to this magazine at 1 1/2 years old and absolutely loves each issue. The monthly book / magazine is very durable and is the size of a board book which makes them perfect for little hands to hold and also for traveling out and about of your home with. This is also very nice and easy to read for a bedtime story.
Enjoying the magazine in France
As Americans living abroad, it's great to find such a good magazine in english that can be delivered to our home--and at such a reasonable price. The first issue came quickly too. The content is really cute and appropriate and there are no ads. A great gift indeed!

Excellent first magazine for your toddler!
I got this for my daugther at 18 months due to her love of reading and animals and we have been delighted with the three issues we have received so far.Each issue is about 6x7 inches, 23 color pages on heavy duty cardstock (think thick magazine pages, not board book cardboard). The binding seems to hold up to her many readings and re-readings, though it certainly shows wear like everything else she gets her hands on!

FULL of advertisements for your kids
When you watch commercial children's television, you have to accept the commercials because, after all, the programs are "free". But when you pay to subscribe to Nickelodeon magazine, I don't expect for it so be so full of alluring ads targeting children. These ads appear similar to the editorial content. It seems like 50% of the pages are advertisements!
Great Kids Magazine
This is one of my favorite magazines. It tells you about shows and new ones, movies, celebreties, and more! It also has some interviews with actors/actresses. It has fun puzzles and comics. I love the Scene but Not Heard comics. They are hilarious! Overall, I would get this magazine if I were you.

this is a great magazine!!!!!!!!!
I like this magazine because it has funny stuff and intresting stuff and also the inside scoop on the latest stuff. Also it has some activities. I've been subscribed for more than a year and i haven't thrown out one issue because i can read the over and over. I don't recommend this for kids under 10 years old.

Jose Da Silveira
Yvette Linton-Smith and many other women can attest to the absolute love and passion as shown in his work of the desire and wanting of the female form. Mr. Da Silveira has no reason or motive to be with a woman other than the fact that he cares for the passion and friendship. Mr. Da Silveira sexual preferences as all people in no way should be the concern of the paparazzi/press...

JOSE DA SILVEIRA REALLY DATING AN AUSSIE OR IS IT A PLOY
I am not the only to think Jose Da Silveira is not straight. Now that his carrer is back on track, the affirmation of his gayness would be terribly damaging. I believe this is the reason this Yvette Linton-Smith has been hired to go along for a while to make sure ppeople, mainly women can look at him with envy and desire and continue supporting him. Imagine what would happen to his carrer if he turned out to be gay....just your little detective.
Girls, this time it's for good, we have lost our Da Silvreira
His ex/current/future ...may ex to be Yvette Linton-Smith, we can dream girls is moving from Australia to be with our magigal creator Jose Da Silveira. Many girls must becrying tonghit having to give up the dream that during an openig, He will see them and suddenly leaves his girl friend of a year and fall maladivally in love with and steal his amazing genetic make up to make clones of Jose Da Silveira. Dream on girls, the man can get any girl he wants he is again a rising star in his carrer, his paintings are bold and magnificient. he is incrediblel..at his last show at ghettoglooss gallery, [...], the words genuis and good looking were even heard more than a few time. He left the show with a striking brunette, we don't know what happened, may be she could talk to us and give us hope? Yes it would be the time to grab him, not big enough that he is urreachable but big enough to be almost there. girls you want him, it's now or never, at forties he is still a studd and talented, the dream man and he is reaching for the stars, grab him, he will follow you there...but, there is always a but, his aussie as she is from over there seems to be back in his life. Some say he is mad in love for her...so the only solution is to get rid of the kangouroo girl whatever the means and to have free access to Jose Da Silveira. What a girl to want: Dark, mysterious, handsome, amazingly talented, according to a friend featured in a book to come...a good man/sexy/talented. let's all pray that the Koala becomes a real hassle in his life and that he drops her cold/he is known for that/ for dumping girls who give him headackes/he hates headackes and she appears to be a Handfull...drop her cold you our artist our painter our playright, we are hundred waiting for you, more supportive and surelly better looking.

Princess Heaven
Our daughter has had a subscription to this magazine for the last two years and we just renewed the subscription for another year.She will be 6 in a month and looks forward to receiving a new issue every other month.She loves reading the new princess stories in each issue and doing the object finds along with the other activities.I look forward to reading it with her as well.It is a well written magazine with fun activities.

Got for neice's b-day
My neice loves this. I got this for her 4th Birthday. She started reading when she was 3, so this is great to continue honing her skills.

Pricey!
And I am not talking about the subscription!My problem with this magzine is that there is SO much advertising in it - all from Disney.I know it's their magazine, so they're entitled to do it, but my daughter did (some of) the activities, and then treated it like a catalog - "Mommy, can we get this?, Mommy - look at the movie coming out!".We switched to Sparkle magazine which has NO advertising in it - just D.W., Angelina Ballerina, and other favorite girl characters.Yes, it's got all the Disney Princesses, but you may feel like the evil stepmother after having to say no to all the "I want"s. ...

Good Quick Reads
I recently took a trip to the beach and brought along my ESPN mag to play in the sand. Good quick tidbits and interesting focuses "personal" side of the players. I have always been a fan of the design of this mag. I would like to see some more in depth articlesin the future but overall worth the cover price.

Where is it?
I still haven't gotten a copy yet?It's been a month.

A little bit of everything, but not much of anything
ESPN the Magazine falls somewhere between The Sporting News and Sports Illustrated.SI gives in depth articles about the athletes of the game and the games/teams themselves, but not much in the way of stats and analysis.TSN dives deep on the stats and analysis.ESPNTM gives you the superficialities of both.Sadly, the only reason I continue to renew my ESPNTM subscription is because its the cheapest way to keep up my ESPN Insider web subscription. ...

The magazine
This is the only music magazine you ever need to read. This is what Rolling Stone should aspire to be. There is really nothing more to say than if you like music this is all there is.

It was great while it lasted....
I am a big fan of this magazine, but even more so of the "free" cd--when it is good, it is very good.So I finally subscribed despite the stiff price.Two issues came, I was happy, then a third without the cd, and then...no more.After many calls and complaints, Amazon finally secured a partial refund--not exactly what I wanted.Here's hoping that the delivery problems can be worked out--maybe an opaque wrapper?

Great content but delivery is problematic
As far is the writing is concerned this is a top notch rock magazine. The format is appealing and the pages are not marred by one too many ads. Another plus is the CD that comes with each issue ; this might help justify the cost. The original CD's are priceless with real gems that the average music listener may not have heard of.They choose a theme and run with it, creating an eclectic mix of artists to illustrate their theme.Take for example a few months back when it was legendary tracks from Studio One in Jaimaca where it featured little known artists among reggae afficionados like Ernest Ranglin, Michiganand Smiley next to giants like Bob Marley, The Skatalites for a complete view of the important record label of reggae. I really enjoy the monthly features including tributes to those that passed away in the month entitled"Real Gone." Old rock stars are going faster than they did in the seventies! Other good features are the brief reviews of music indexed as Filter reissues, reissues extra, tracks,buried treasurean just plain Filter Albums(current stuff). The in depth articles of the cover subject are very entertaining and what actually drew me to Mojo intiallyfor information. There is one draw back for US subsrcibers, it is a long way acros the pond and problems will occurr. In the last year my problems have been as follows: was receiving my issues two weeks after the stores had copies, missing CD's. To their credit both problems were solved in spite of having to send three issues so that I would finally get my ripped off CD,it was stole twice! Subscriber beware. Sending it in clear plastic with the words CD inside is just an invitation to a thief. Otherwise it is maybe the best rock music magazine out there and I defintely recommend the Brits perspective. ... Read more

Still MAD after all these years....
I read MAD Magazine as a kid back in the '60's and '70's, and have always appreciated the fact that although the humor is for the most part sophmoric, many of the jokes and parodies require that you actually understand the politics/literature/history/cultural reference that's being lampooned.
The Single Best Magazine Ever Made
What paved the way for satire movies such as "Airplane!", "The Naked Gun" and "Scary Movie"? What else than the original source of satire, MAD Magazine!
Happy About MAD
In 1986 I had my mom buy me my first issue of MAD. On the cover was a snot-nosed Garbage Pail Kid cartoon of Alfred E. Neuman puking into a barf bag. I was in heaven! My friend and his brother had turned me onto MAD a month earlier when they showed me their prized collection of over a hundred classic MADs from the seventies and early eighties. My first MAD--stained and dog-eared after just a week--was to become the first installment in a collection of MADs that now numbers in the hundreds. For the rest of my childhood I would buy every single issue of MAD to hit the newstands and would scour garage sales in my neighborhood for older issues people wanted to get rid of. Why anyone would ever want to part with a MAD magazine was beyond me in those days.

uuuuhhhh.....so not worth it in the end.
I love the magazine for the most part. It gets to me that it is so male oriented though. Half naked chicks, stuff about sex and prostitution are all over the place. Once you look beyond that though it is pretty good. They throw gimicks in it (like free episodes, manga, and postcards) just to get people to buy it. And even if you wanted some of the animes advertised in the magazine you couldn't afford them after paying the ridiculously high subscription price. Good info and everything but if you are on a budget you simply wouldn't be able to afford it. It's better to check the bookstores to see if there is one that you really want.

Overall, a very good fan magazine
When judging NewType USA by its peers, it does very well.The magazine is full of big glossy pages of Japanese content.The DVDs are also packed with trailers and episodes each month.
One of the Best Anime Magazines Available!
I cannot say enough good things about Newtype USA! The quality of this magazine is simply outstanding.Each issue features in-depth articles on at least three different animes as well as a ton of smaller articles that give you a preview of new up and coming titles. Each issue also includes a dvd with at least 3 full length episodes of the newest shows, plus at least 10 trailers for other anime titles.This magazine also contains articles on Jpop/rock bands, anime conventions, the latest in japanese merchandise, and a whole lot more.I have been a subscriber to Newtype USA for over a year and I am completely, 100% satisfied with it.I am always looking forward to the next issue and highly recommend this magazine to all anime fans. ...
