Stockholder Agreement with TCI

     On January 25, 1996, TCI acquired a controlling interest in the
Company from Mr. Flinn, the Company's Chairman and Chief Executive
Officer, when the Company merged (the "Merger") with a wholly owned
subsidiary of TCI pursuant to an Agreement and Plan of Merger dated as
of July 10, 1995, as amended (the "Merger Agreement"), among the
Company, TCI and TCI Merger Sub, Inc.  In connection with the Merger,
the Company and TCI entered into a Stockholder Agreement dated as of
January 25, 1996, which currently requires TCI to vote its shares of
the Company's equity securities in any general election of directors in
favor of the election of Mr. Boylan as a director so long as he is an
executive officer of the Company.  The Stockholder Agreement in certain
circumstances also limits TCI's ability to vote its equity securities
of the Company at a stockholders' meeting in favor of certain
transactions requiring stockholder approval.


Section 16(a) Beneficial Ownership Reporting Compliance

     Section 16 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 requires the
Company's executive officers and directors and persons who own more
than ten percent of a registered class of the Company's equity
securities (collectively, the "reporting persons") to file reports of
ownership and changes in ownership with the Securities and Exchange
Commission and to furnish the Company with copies of these reports.
Based solely upon a review of copies of such reports filed with the
Company, and written representations received from the reporting
persons, the Company believes that all filings required to be made by
the reporting persons for the last fiscal year were made on a timely
basis except as follows:  Mr. Gary S. Howard, Chairman of the Board and
Chief Executive Officer of the Company was late in filing the initial
Form 3, which reported no beneficial ownership of shares of Class A
Common Stock.



Item 11.   Executive Compensation


Summary Compensation Table

     The following Summary Compensation Table sets forth a summary of
the compensation paid by the Company during each of the fiscal years
ended December 31, 1997, 1996 and 1995, to the chief executive officer
and four other most highly compensated executive officers ("the Named

Named Executive Officers received any restricted stock awards or
long-term incentive payouts nor did any of the Named Executive Officers
receive any other annual compensation.

Directors' Compensation

     Directors who are not also employees of the Company or its
subsidiaries receive a fee of $4,000 per meeting attended in person and
a fee of $2,000 per committee meeting attended in person, unless such
committee meeting is held on the same day as a meeting of the full
Board of Directors.  Telephonic meetings of boards and committees are
compensable at the rate of $400.  Directors who are also employees of
the Company or its subsidiaries receive no additional compensation for
serving as directors.  The Company reimburses all of its directors for
reasonable travel and out-of-pocket expenses in connection with their
attendance at meetings of the Board of Directors.

     The Company adopted the United Video Satellite Group, Inc. Stock
Option Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the "Directors Plan") on March
8, 1996, subject to stockholder approval, which was given on May 15,
1996.  The Company has reserved 165,000 shares of Class A Common Stock
to be issued pursuant to the exercise of options granted under the
Directors Plan.  The Directors Plan provided each non-employee director
as of May 15, 1996, an option to purchase 15,000 shares of Class A
Common Stock.  Each non-employee director who is newly elected to the
Board of Directors will be granted an option to purchase 15,000 shares
of Class A Common Stock if sufficient shares are then available for
grant thereunder or, if not, an option to purchase the number of shares
then available for grant thereunder.  Options granted under the
Directors Plan vest at the rate of 20% per year, beginning one year
after the date of grant; however, upon a change in control of the
Company, as defined in the Directors Plan, the options fully vest.


Employment Agreements

     The Company has employment agreements with Messrs. Flinn and
Boylan.  The agreements have terms ending on January 25, 1999, and
provide for 1998 base salaries of $698,625 and $400,000 for Messrs.
Flinn and Boylan, respectively, with annual increases of 8% in base
salary for Mr. Flinn and 12.5% in base salary for Mr. Boylan.  Bonuses
may be granted from time to time at the discretion of the Compensation
Committee.  Messrs. Flinn and Boylan have each agreed they will not
compete against the Company during the period they are employed by the
Company and for three years after termination of the agreement.
Employment may be terminated by the Company at any time, with or
without cause.  If employment is terminated without cause, the
terminated individual is entitled to (i) a continuation of certain
employee benefits, (ii) a severance payment equal to the amount of the
base salary that would have been receivable through the later of the
remainder of the agreement's term or one year from the date of
termination, and (iii) payment of one-half of the base salary for the
balance of the three-year period of the agreement not to compete
(unless the terminated individual is employed or engaged as a full-time
consultant).  If employment is terminated by the Company or if the
individual resigns after being assigned to a position of lesser
responsibility, in either case within a six-month period after a change
of control, the individual is entitled to a continuation of certain
employee benefits and a severance payment equal to the amount of their
base salary for the remainder of a two-year period following the change
in control.

     Mr. Flinn resigned as Chairman of the Board and Chief Executive
Officer of the Company during 1997 due to health concerns but continues
to serve on the Board of Directors, Executive Committee and
Compensation Committee and as an advisor to the Company at a reduced
salary of $250,000 with no bonus.

Compensation Committee Interlocks and Insider Participation in
Compensation Decisions

     The Compensation Committee was established to make recommendations
regarding compensation, including incentive compensation, stock bonus,
stock option, and other incentive or stock plans, and previously
administered the Company's Equity Incentive Plan. The Compensation
Committee also reviews and approves, subject to ratification by the
Board of Directors, all compensation to the executive officers.  The
Compensation Committee currently consists of Messrs. Wargo (Chairman),
Bennett, Flinn and Hindery.

     The Special Compensation Committee was established to grant awards
under the Company's Equity Incentive Plan and to make other
compensation awards where necessary in order to comply with the
requirements of Section 162(m) of the Code.  The Special Compensation
Committee currently consists of two members of the Compensation
Committee, Messrs. Bennett and Wargo.

     Mr. Flinn was the Chairman of the Board of Directors and Chief
Executive Officer of the Company through June 1997.

     Mr. Hindery is President and Chief Operating Officer of TCI and
Mr. Bennett is an Executive Vice President of TCI.  TCI purchased $8.1
million of video, program promotion and guide services and subscriber
management services from the Company during 1997.  Additionally, TCI
purchased system integration services from the Company totaling $1.2
million during 1997.  The Company purchased $36.8 million of
programming and production services from TCI during 1997.

     On February 17, 1998, the Company announced plans to acquire
Liberty's approximate 40% interest in SNG as part of a transaction
subject to, among other things, stockholder approval.  The transaction,
which also includes Liberty's business that distributes to cable
television systems and other multi-channel video distributors, four
network affiliates, one public broadcast station and one independent
television station, collectively known as Denver 6, and certain other
programming interests will be effected on a tax-free basis by UVSG
issuing 6,375,000 shares of Class A Common Stock.

Item 12.  Security Ownership of Certain Beneficial Owners and
          Management


     The following table sets forth certain information as of April 28,
1998, regarding ownership of UVSG Common Stock by (1) each person
believed by UVSG to be the beneficial owner of more than five percent
of its outstanding Common Stock; (2) each Director and the Named
Executive Officers, and (3) all current executive officers and

Class A Common Stock.  The table below does not reflect such beneficial
ownership of UVSG Class A Common Stock.
