Time (styled within the magazine as TIME) is an American weekly news magazine published in New York City. It was founded in 1923 and for decades was dominated by Henry Luce, who built a highly profitable stable of magazines.

Time has the world's largest circulation for a weekly news magazine, and has a readership of 26 million, 20 million of which are based in the United States. Three other editions of Time are published for Europe, Asia and Australasia (South Pacific). Time for Kids is their division for children. Their YouTube channel is available here.

Note: To access old Time articles on their website, a subscription must be bought.

Tropes used in Time Magazine include:

"You write a book, you get to the end, and then it's like—meh, I'll just pick one of the letters of the alphabet for the title."

  • One of Us: Richard Corliss, longtime film critic for TIME magazine, has been a fan of Mystery Science Theater 3000 since its inception, and often wrote about it in his columns.
  • Police Brutality: The magazine wrote an article about incidents in 1968 ("Chicago Examined: Anatomy of a Police Riot").
  • Prom Baby: "Prom Nightmare" describes cases gone deadly.
  • Retraux: The magazine published a special Bicentennial "July 8, 1776" edition in 1976. The entire issue is written as if Time had actually existed in 1776, with all its usual sections (with a few obvious exceptions like Film and Television). It apparently sold well, and was followed by a "1789" edition covering the first inauguration of George Washington.
  • Review Ironic Echo: Their review of Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince noted the book's parallels to the series' second installment and quotes the character Hagrid saying "Chamber o' Secrets all over again, isn't it?"
  • Saint Bernard Rescue: This mid 80s ad shows a man being saved not with Brandy, but by Time Magazine.
  • Think of the Children: The cover for the July 3, 1995 issue of Time about "CYBERPORN" shows a child using a computer, with shadows and a shocked expression on his face.
