TV Guide November 8-14, 1997

The Women of Star Trek are spotlighted in the November of 1997 TV Guide Magazine.

Star Trek in all of its forms has always been known to be populated by some of the most beautiful and intelligent women in the galaxy.

This TV Guide issue comes with two covers: Dax (Terry Ferrell of Deep Space Nine) and Seven of Nine (Jeri Ryan of Star Trek: Voyager).

I have the Seven of Nine version.

It’s interesting that the Picard Star Trek TV series reintroduced Seven of Nine in its first season and it appears she will become a regular cast member.

It’s been over 20 years since she was last seen and in that time she has regained her humanity and leads a campaign to save other Borg from the Collective.

Star Trek was one of the first TV shows to give women the opportunity to portray women in high levels of command, important professional positions and as equals to men.

Other than the Star Trek article the magazine consists of the usual TV listing and fluff articles.

Still it’s a great tribute to the ladies of Star Trek and deserves to be part of any Star Trek collection.

Matthew 7:21 - Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
