I think it says something about the power of the Web that the largest
circulation magazine on the face of the planet, TV GUIDE, has gone
online:
http://www.iguide.com/tv
TVGO (TV GUIDE ONLINE) includes pretty much the full text of the paper
version--including (and this amazes me) full schedule listings
(arranged by time zone) and a search engine for getting around those
listings.
Some of the online listings even have *more* detail than the paper
version--as in this listing for the film, QUICK CHANGE:

disgruntled New Yorker who robs a bank to finance his escape from the
