Star Trek is a popular science fiction TV series that the media has referenced frequently.
Appearances
- Puppet Jam: Tropical Lazor Beams — Homestar Runner sings "I put my lazors on stun", similar to the oft-repeated "keep your phaser set on stun" in Star Trek.
- Hairstyle Runner — One of the galleries is called "spock can talk to whales", a reference to The Voyage Home in which the crew of the Enterprise travels back in time to save the supposedly sentient humpback whales.
- Email dreamail — Strong Bad says "on screen", a common order given by various characters in the series. He also addresses the email, which he is writing at the end, to Leonard Nimoy, who is best known for his role as Spock in both The Original Series and its subsequent spin-off movies and occasionally as a guest in Star Trek: The Next Generation, even a guest in J.J. Abram's 2009 fil Star Trek.
- Email best thing — The first (and only) episode of Limozeen: "but they're in space!" is titled "ENCOUNTER AT GROUPULON 5" a possible reference to Encounter at Farpoint, the first episode of Star Trek: The Next Generation.
- Email space program — Strong Bad types a "Captainface Log", and recites it in a similar manner to the Captain's Logs ubiquitous to Star Trek.
- Teen Girl Squad Issue 11 — Science Fiction Greg dresses up in a Star Trek uniform.
- Email fan club — During Strong Bad's fan fiction, he has Strong Sad say "And that's why I like all them Star Tracks!"
- Email buried — Strong Bad's line, "[that's] why all beings look the same except for slight differences of our foreheads!"' refers to the Star Trek: The Next Generation episode The Chase, in which the Enterprise crew, along with several warring alien species, discover a message from an ancient race claiming to have seeded the galaxy with DNA hoping it would evolve into other races that look like them, including humans, Klingons and Romulans. This episode has been widely criticized by fans.
- Dangeresque 3: The Criminal Projective — Strong Bad mentions "trekking the stars".
Other Appearances
- The Nebulon sound is taken from an unofficial Star Trek computer game.
- Bozar is probably inspired by Q.
