TV Guide is a US publishing company that publishes a weekly mini-magazine about television programming. These magazines features covers relevant to television shows airing that week. Star Trek covers have appeared on many of these magazines, starting with the issue dated 4-10 March, 1967.

Two influential articles on Star Trek, written by noted science fiction author and scientist Isaac Asimov, have originally appeared in the magazine while Star Trek: The Original Series was still being aired,

  • "What Are a Few Galaxies Among Friends?" (26 November 1966, pp. 6-9)
  • "Mr. Spock is Dreamy!" (29 April 1967, pp. 9-11)

In addition to their weekly guide, TV Guide occasionally publishes collector's edition magazines. To date, they have published four based on Star Trek:

Prior to the airing of Star Trek: Deep Space Nine's final episode "What You Leave Behind", TV Guide released four different covers featuring all of the main cast members. Around the same time, TV Guide called Deep Space Nine "the best acted, written, produced, and altogether finest… Star Trek series". (Star Trek: Deep Space Nine Companion (p. ?))
