This is a list of issue covers of TV Guide magazine from the decade of the 2010s, from January 2010 to December 2019.

Since 2012, TV Guide added a digital edition for subscribers on platforms such as Zinio; these issues, which are downloaded when the printed version's double issues are on their second week, are indicated with dates in italics and with a (D) .
