Okay, so we are suppose to run out the day that the 3-D episode airs to get the 3-D glasses? The issue of TV Guide that has them comes out on the 21st. And that's when the episode airs, correct?

How freaking ridiculous is that? I went out and got a copy of the 14-20th TV Guide to be beyond upset.

This is stupid.

I think the only ridiculous thing about this is that there is no other way for people who aren't subscribed to TV Guide to get the 3-D glasses. Unless they're still handing them out at a Sprint store. But seeing that this 3-D episode has been advertised for quite some time, I guess they figured folks and fans of the show would find a way to get those glasses before it airs.

For me, though, I've been subscribed to TV Guide for some time now. So I should get the glasses when it arrives in next weeks edition. :)

The glasses are in EVERY 11/21 TV Guide, not just the ones for subscribers.

That is what I was saying. For those that cannot afford, get to, OR subscribe to TV Guide, it'll be difficult for them to retrieve the 3-D glasses.

Unfortunately my edition of TV Guide arrived in the mail today, and the glasses aren't even in it. EVEN though it says it is, it isn't.

I guess I'm just having a hard time seeing how 99 cents is a financial hardship.

If you're in another country, okay. But TV Guides are pretty commonplace in the States...every 7-11, grocery store, convenience store, and pharmacy I've ever been in carries it.

My TV Guide arrived today- just a heads up for subscribers out there. I wonder when they go on sale at the stores?

I was told by someone who buys it often Thurs. or Fri. in the stores.

It isnt going to be worth the effort. Just watch the show as you normally do, wont miss a thing.

they should be out one week early that's how they typically run.

They're in the issue that came out today, the one with Medium on the cover. You can get it at any grocery store, and it's pretty cheap, too, I think TV Guide went down to 99 cents. :)

I don't know about you, but I live on a college campus and I will be taking the $1.00 bus to get my copy at the grocery store, which is too far away for me to walk to. :)

The website said the Nov. 14th issue. Recently they changed it to the 21st issue. A big mistake on their part. I was going to buy it this week as well until I saw the promo at the end of Mondays episode.

For those in Canada you can get glasses in Sat's Globe and Mail.
