Keeping in mind DS9 itself opened on a direct TNG tie in, sprinkled TNG villains through the first season, then brought back every Klingon captain from TOS, and finally just went all in and edited everyone into a TOS episode so Dax could swoon over Spock’s eyes and Sisko could sneak Kirk’s autograph…
Every Trek show since the original has referenced the others like this. I think it’s good fun.

And TNG has appearances from several TOS cast members; Deforest Kelly, James Doohan, Mark Leonard and Leonard Nimoy.

Trials and Tribble-ations is a masterwork. Star Trek’s penchant to self reference can make great things. But it can also make episodes like many of the Enterprise ones.

They also just introduced one of the main characters of TNG in season 4, even referencing a TNG movie. It is wild to assume Star Trek was never self-referential lol

Voyager referenced or included TOS and TNG characters in at least eight episodes of season 3.
- “Flashback” was the big Sulu/Rand/Kang 30th anniversary tribute
- "Death Wish" had Q and Riker
- In “Alliances” Tuvok talks about Spock and recaps the events of Undiscovered Country
- McCoy was mentioned in "Lifesigns"
- Data was mentioned in "Prototype"
- Sulu was mentioned in "Tattoo"
- Picard and Moriarty were mentioned in "Alter Ego"
- Picard was mentioned again in “Scorpion”
That’s basically a third of the season, assuming I didn’t forget any. And that’s not even counting things like the mention of Wolf 359 in “Unity” or the koon-ut-kal-if-fee in “Blood Fever”.
And that’s from the show that went out of their way to make it hard to use existing concepts.

That’s right, I completely forgot about Worf, and also the O’Briens!

Who are you asking? Do you have an opinion of your own? Is there any chance at all you have something to say about the interview you’re ostensibly discussing?
HubertManne@piefed.social 1 day ago
speaking of what are your opinions on this link you put forward. What did you think about it when you watched it? Why is it worth a watch?
Scirocco@lemmy.world 10 hours ago
What are you talking about? What video?
This thread is focused on the interview as WRITTEN in the article posted.
Are you calling out OP for not watching a video? Did you read the article interview yourself?
Get a grip, man…

Nope. Im calling out links and media that somone drops with no context. Its a pet peeve of mine. One of my bigger asks is a way to filter out content that does not have a written body and I generally avoid discourse myself with them as the OP did not start any discourse to begin with. The OP’s response to the comment annoys me as its suggesting they feel they did not read and its like hey if you want to make a comment like that why don’t you actually explaine why you dropped a link in to begin with. Its like getting pamphlets pushed in your face as you walk down the street. Ironically its what got me to comment against my general rule of not engaging if the op does not start some with their post.
