Reminds me of Garrett Wang. He was introducing a Star Trek panel, a TNG panel if I remember correctly, and was talking to the audience a bit about his relationship with Star Trek. Said he watched it growing up but in his teenage years it phased out. Then he heard of TNG and turned it on. First episode? Code of Honor and he said "Okay. No thanks." Cut to a few years later and he sees TNG is on. Why not check it out, can't be as bad as it was before? It's Code of Honor again. Cut again to a couple years after that. He has an audition for Voyager coming up and he decides to watch some Star Trek for reference. Finds it on a channel and starts watching it. Code of Honor.

He ended the story by saying he credits Code of Honor for getting him the job because if he saw any other episode he'd be too much of a fanboy.

"I swear, it's not that ridiculous all the time..."

During TNG S1E4 Code of honor: "Yeah, it looks bad, but there's an important progressive message in there somewhere."

Enterprise pilot episode: "Ok, so Rick Burman had a bit of a horny streak, but it gets better."

Damn, I thought nothing could get worse than Beverly the ghost diddler bust I guess I was wrong.

"I want to help you, George Washington? Even your dreams are square."

It was the 60's what do you want from them???

Actually i kinda like this episode and its line about good and evil being the same. Its an overall goofy episode but still has something to it

Evidence that the musical episode is only like the seventh goofiest premise in Star Trek. And I'm not even counting anything from Lower Decks.

REAL SIMULATED EVIL LINCOLN IS BACK!

All great sci fi has its moments of levity. People who can't or won't accept that, I don't know what to tell ya.

Isn't it funny that the events of modern day are hundreds of years past for the members of Starfleet, yet all of their cultural references and entertainment options revolve around our period?
