Not only was Trials and Tribble-ations a technical triumph, it was just so much fun!! I'm glad it was #1!!
Spoilers!
One of my favorite trivia bits about "Trials and Tribble-ations" is that the writer of the original episode, David Gerrold, actually makes a cameo in the DS9 crossover. He is the older crewman seen on the floor with some tribbles as they are starting to multiply. The scene is also briefly seen in this video.
Riker: Worf, where is Data? Worf: Escorting an Admiral from Starfleet Medical who doesn't want his molecules scattered across the universe.
Encounter at farpoint.
@@rayeasom yes they DID mention it
I love how Deep Space Nine was the link between TNG and STV when the Enterprise dropped off Sisko to his new post and Voyager dropped in for a pit stop before their rendezvous with the Caretaker.
Really I never got into much on Voyager.Not to say it wasn't good just not as cool as TNG and Deep Space Nine.
Never heard it abbreviated STV before! But I agree that was a cool link. It would have been neat if Voyager was somehow involved in the beginning of Enterprise. First episode dealt with time travel so they could have cheesed something up for us!
I was a fan of DS9 and I got so hooked on STV especially once 7of9 was added. I never watched any TNG episodes until The National Network (now Spike) was rebranded as "The New TNN" when TNG was added in prime time. So with the ending of DS9, STV, and X-Files, I had a void in TV in the spring of 2001 that got filled and along the way the Star Fleet backstory to what I enjoyed with the other spinoffs.
It figures that there would be easy transitions between TNG, DS9, and Voyager. DS9 started airing in the next to last season of TNG, and Voyager started in the third season of TS9.
@@christopherg2347 There should have been another rule: you don't end a series with characters from a previous series who won't exist in the ST timeline for another 200 years!

Me watching Pathfinder for the 100th time: "Ok, this time I'm gonna make it!"
Janeway: "...Keep a docking bay open for us"
Me: **River of tears**
Why the long face Mr. Barclay?
Course: Oblivion is the one that kicks me. Every. Damned. Time.
Tom Paris's reaction to hearing his father's voice was priceless. I wondered how he kept it together when the admiral said he was proud of him.
I just rewatched this episode last week. Voyager is unfairly regarded, they had some great episodes.
"Tell him ... I'm proud of him." "He heard you, Admiral."
The 2 temporal investigators names were, Dulmur and Lucsly. Anagrams of Mulder and Scully.
Mind blown 😳
Nice observation!
Good catch!
Insert X-files theme song.
Weeooooww!
anytime a star trek episode has Reginald Barclay, Vic Fontaine or EMH/Zimmerman as main focal point I immediately know it is going to be one of my favorite episodes.
vic and joe (he ends up picking that name in the last episode of voyager) need to get together sometimes.
Remember the episode where the EMH gets activated like 200 years into the future and the people on this planet are setting up like a Holocaust museum type thing on the Voyagers war crimes? That was a goodun. Or when he gets kidnapped into that medical bureaucracy nightmare? Love EMH standalones.
@@benhaney9629 the second one ya mentioned is one of my favorites.
Agree entirely!
You said "EMH/Zimmerman", but I think you meant "Schweitzer"
Voyager episode with the two Ferangi who had been trapped in the delta quadrant from a prev next Generation episode, crossover Yes or No?
Yes, I would consider it a crossover, just not in the top 10.
I loved that crossover
@@mikestoveken I'm with you on it. Having rewatched both episodes last month I find that "The Price" was good but "False Profits" was lacking.
Yes. It is a sequel from a TNG episode, and therefore a crossover.
Yep. It wasn't the best, though.
The reason they tied in Sulu's ship on Voyager was because it was the thirtieth anniversary of the original Trek, so both DS9 and Voyager did Original Series crossovers.
Tuvok on Excelsior made no sense at all. He was never seen there in STVI: TUC. No way this would really qualify as a top 10 in Trek crossovers.
@@startounz He wasn't a member of the senior staff, so it's not a problem for him to be on the ship but not in shot during the movie. You don't see Christian Slater's character apart from in his one scene. The problem with the episode is that Dimitri Valtane ostensibly dies in the events seen in the Voyager episode, but is clearly alive and well at the end of Star Trek VI with no one passing comment on it.
The beauty of it was, Sulu and Rand were missing from The Trouble With Tribbles but both happened to be on the Excelsior during the events of Star Trek VI, so it made for the perfect way to get all the main Original Series crew on screen for the anniversary.
@@PetersonZF That was Valtane's brother. ;)
@@PetersonZF That was retroactively explained away as being his twin brother, also serving on board the Excelsior. 😉
Surprised there was no mention of _In a Mirror, Darkly_ (ENT S4 E18,19).
Taking place entirely in the Mirror Universe, the evil versions of the NX-01's crew travel to Tholian space in pursuit of a Federation distress signal. Once there, they discover the _Defiant;_ not the ship from DS9 but rather the Enterprise's sister ship from The Tholian Web (TOS S3 E09), which it turns out was displaced in time as well as between universes. (The position of the corpses on the Defiant's bridge is exactly replicated from that episode.) The Tholians are studying the advanced ship in an attempt to replicate it, but Mirror Archer & co. manage to steal it, albeit at the cost of letting the Tholians destroy the Mirror Enterprise.
Archer and crew spend the rest of the episode on board the Defiant, a perfect replica of the original series' Enterprise, and several crew members even change into TOS-style uniforms. Mirror Archer and Reed fight a Gorn that stowed away.
my absolute favorite two episodes of enterprise.
Yeah, I'm guessing it was character crossovers. But then ENT didn't crossover into the TOS universe but into their own version of the Mirror Universe which happens to have a recreation of _The Tholian Web_ Defiant in it. A very good recreation. They really got the placement of bodies on the bridge. A tie in certainly, but I get why they didn't include it as a crossover.
@@LCARSDATANODE - I was never that big a Fan of Enterprise- I haven't seen all the episodes of Enterprise, but those 2 were the best episodes I remember seeing. I think there was a strong Political Subtext to that 2 part episode. I think it was really an allegorical attack on U.S. Imperialism and the U.S. approaching Fascism especially under the Bush Administration.
I just finished watching all the Enterprise episodes. Season 4 was great, and "Mirror, Darkly" in particular. I just wish somebody would go back and redo all the CGI from the series. It was awful.
As long as it wasn't the final episode which pretty much just relegates the TV series to the adventures of Riker in the holodeck...
I would argue the Enterprise Borg episode was more of a crossover - even if they used no actors from First Contact.
Alien to Scotty: what is it?
Drunk Scotty: it's green
Scotty to Data: What is it?
Baffled Data: it is green
Aldeveron whiskey
Who do you think gave it to Guinan? 😂😂😂
They did it in Mass Effect 2 also
They left out the TNG episode "Birthright" where DS9's Dr. Bashir helps Data interpret his dreams. Still a nice list though.
He had a clip of that episode in the intro though... I was waiting for it in the 10.
Yeah, that was a good one.
@@BIackMoonCGI Me too. The only truly bad choice here is "Through the Looking Glass." Bashir in "Birthright" would have been a much better choice. Or, heck, Quark on TNG or Quark on VOY. Or Picard on DS9. Or McCoy on TNG. Oy....
@@LaurenceQuint Picard on TNG? You probably mean on DS9.
@@quuaaarrrk8056 Heh. I'm an idiot. :D Fixed, thanks.
“You aren’t going to tell us you were meant to go back in time? That that was the way it was ALWAYS supposed to be?”
“No”
“Good. We hate that.”
Predestination paradoxes are the worst!
You didn't mention DS9 "Blood Oath" with the 3 TOS Klingon Captains Kang, Kor and Koloth. Now that was an awesome episode.
They were the Three Klingon Musketeers.
Trials and Tribble-ations was a hilarious episode, and wouldn’t have worked without that closing scene with the Promenade buried in Tribbles
For me it was quark with the tribble on his head
The scene where Sisko gets to meet Captain Kirk was my favorite.
one of my favorite episodes, especially when dulmar and lucsly mention about hating the quote "this could take some time" and thinking its a "predestination paradox" (good we hate those too)
@@captainbryce1 That's actually not from "The Trouble With Tribbles." What they did was insert Sisko in place of Prime universe Marlena Moreau, in "Mirror, Mirror."
Which makes the next bit of dialogue absolutely weird, when Spock asks Kirk if he knows the "young lady."
Kirk says no, not really, he just thinks she's a "nice, likable girl", and they could be friends.
6:30 well if you're going to bring up the Dr. Who Star Trek comic you may as well bring up the Star Trek Vs. X-Men comic, which I still believe was made just so they could make a joke about the two Dr. McCoys
They even did a follow up novel crossing the X-Men with TNG.
i LOVE that bit! + Kirk hitting on Jean Grey + Vulcan nerve pinch not working on Wolverine
I consider "In a Mirror, Darkly" a crossover episode, even though there's no actual characters that cross over. But the idea is ingenious - The Defiant in TOS winks out of existence in a weak part of space after being entrapped by the Tholians, only to reappear in the mirror universe in Enterprise's time, but still entrapped by the Tholians. There are many TOS series loose ends that could be made into crossovers, but I thought this one was very clever and is my favorite episode of the entire Enterprise run. I would have put it on this list.
Some one forgot the entirety of deep space 9 with o'Brien as originally a charecter in the next generation
Lieutenant O'Brien on TNG. Chief O'Brien on DS9.
He must've done something really shit to get busted down so far and get dumped off at a backwater space station. Sure, they made a big deal of showing him getting a Captain's send off and all that ... but they also showed that new replacement O'Brien-version-2 was already installed before he even made it off the ship.
@@pwnmeisterage he was NEVER AN OFFICER.
@@ZakhadWOW Then why was he wearing Lieutenant rank on TNG and why did people (sometimes) address him as Lieutenant on TNG?
O'Brien has had the most ranks and collar insignia than anyone.
One of the most on screen characters with the least constant job, rank, title.
Nitpicker delight.
I love that Miles O'Brien is one of the most important figures in Starfleet history and there's a statue of him. (Star Trek: Lower Decks: Temporal Edict)
Picard was in "The Emissary" and Quark was in "The Caretaker".
"Beverly slaps the god damn taste out of her sons mouth." Birliant.
If you are going to include"The Way of the Warrior", then why not "Blood Oath" ? You had all three of the original lingon Commanders from the original series meeting on DS-9, in order to finally kill the The Albino. If that doesn't scream "crossover"...
I was going to say the same thing. Blood Oath definitely belongs on the list
Blood oath and into the breach would have been better choices that way of the warrior.
Don't forget, Micheal Dorn was in ST6 as Kirk and McCoy's defense lawyer.
Agreed. I guess behind this logic O'Brien is a crossover.
hell yeah
I would go out on a limb and say that the acting by Patrick Stewart in the Sarek episode was probably the best I've seen.
It was absolutely gobsmacking!
Yup!
Why is it that people think it's good acting when Stewart yells?
@@alphanerd7221 Who knows? He certainly never mastered the Dramatic........ PAUSE!
@@GabePuratekuta witty
"Bev slaps the taste out of Wesley's mouth" 😂🤣😂🤣😂🤣
So why isn't the DS9 episode "Emissary" on the list? One of the memorable scenes in that episode is when Sisko did not exactly hide his disdain for Picard.
Zephraim Cochrane from the First Contact movie making a cameo in the first episode of Enterprise.
Brent Spiner playing a scientist who works with genetic augments, though not Khan specifically. He later decided to try artificial life forms and said it would take multiple generations. The character was named Dr. Soong, a patrilineal ancestor of Data’s creator.
Not to mention, that the week that Unification part one aired for the very first time also happened literally within the very same week that Gene Roddenberry had just passed away and the first half of the episode was meant to be a symbolic passing of the torch as Picard had his final moments with Sarek was intended to represent Gene leaving us all.
Scotty and LaForge working together, with Scotty's experience and La Forge's knowledge.
Not ashamed to admit it,but when relics first aired, I cried like a baby. Tip Jimmy doohan, you will never be forgotten.
On "The Way Of The Warrior" (one of the best episodes on the whole franchise, by the way) there was a crossover with another recurring TNG character; Gowron. That frog-eyed monster was in more episodes of TNG than DS9 at that point.
His grandfather's a dick, though.
Always loved when Data and Spock were interacting. It was always interesting to see them talk together.
What about the EMH doctor being in First Contact?
It was A emh, not THE emh
@@user-zh4vo1kw1z well if we are going to play that game. It would be An EMH instead of A.
EMH is "standard equipment" for every ship's medical bay.....The Mark I was modeled after Doctor Zimmerman; it was just simple to feature briefly Bob Picardo in that film, since we are all used to him on Voyager, and instantly recognise who/what he was - even if he's not Voyager's EMH (and he's not supposed to be, in "First Contact").
@@andrewmurray1550 that's what I meant: it is not the character 'doctor' (did he ever get a name??) From voyager, but another hologram that looks like him.
If a prop gets reused, it's not a crossover...
@@user-zh4vo1kw1zIn the last episode, about 26 years into the future, the EMH has a name: Joe. I don't think they mentioned his last name. The name, Joe, came from his hot human wife's grandfather. Paris chided him about it.
No mention of "Emissary", Deep Space 9's pilot episode? The Enterprise-D, Picard, and O'Brien in his TNG uniform all feature very prominently in that episode. As an aside, seeing Voyager docked at Deep Space 9 and Harry Kim and Tom Paris interacting with Quark in the Promenade was a very nice thing to see in the first episode of Voyager, though obviously not as awesome as seeing Picard and Sisko in the same room.
The TARDIS did appear, albeit in another form, in the Star Trek: Enterprise episode "Future Tense."
The ship that was larger on the inside was intended to be a crossover episode with Doctor Who but the agreement never went through either with the BBC or the execs so it was reworked.
I heard that they wanted to do an crossover episode with Doctor Who in Star Trek Enterprise. But they couldn't do it. So Future Tense was made and pays homage to Doctor Who's Tardis. Doctor Who meeting Captain Kirk and Captain Picard in Star Trek comics, I already knew about.
How can that be. Future Tense came out in 2003. Dr. Who was still in the dark years at that point. New Who didn’t start till what? 2005?

Loving these TrekCulture posts. I worked my way through watching Star Trek: Voyager then decided to go back to where it began for me as a child (Star Trek: The Next Generation). Finished watching TNG a week ago and am currently working my way through Star Trek: Deep Space Nine
I never got into DS9. Tried twice and failed. I know they did some amazing episodes. I should try again. 3rd time lucky maybe.
Biggest crossover : My favorite Martian , TNG. Boothby. is really Tim's " Uncle Martin" who's lived on Earth for a.long time. He befriends.a young Jean -Luc Picard, a new cadet at Star Fleet Academy..
Enjoy the journey. Valar Morghulis
@@grantwatson27yearsago14 you should really try. It was my least favorite for a loooong time, but is now second to only TNG in my view.
@@grantwatson27yearsago14 Grant, same here. DS9 didn't have the same energy to it that the other series did. However, after learning of "Trials and Tribble-ations" in this video, I'm gonna watch that now (Amazon Prime) and maybe that'll be - well,...a primer for me.
"To kill the cybermen we must 'BLING' are weapons with gold, everyone, to the replicators!" - Captain Picard
Some great ones to choose from here.. Personally I’d go with Relics and Unification. That moment were Scotty visits the Enterprise bridge on the holodeck is fantastic.
That's a Klingon?
It's a long story.
@@annescholey6546.mckim. my mmjk.kmm..
It makes my eyes water every time i see it.
It (Aldeberan Whiskey) is green. Same stuff that Scotty drank the alien under the table with in one of the TOS episodes.
I would have included the Enterprise episode Regeneration, as it crosses over as a "sequel" to the First Contact movie, as well as ending with a transmission being sent to the Delta Quadrant that takes about 200 years to arrive which can be argued makes the Borg aware of humanity in the first place (apart from that little Q incident on the Enterprise D).
now that is a crossover....and the borg are not even mentioned as borg....
@@augiegirl1 if that is true then it would be the ultimate crossover that links all 4 of the "modern original" series... In Voyager Janeway mentions the Borg Q incident and Wolf-359 in the Scorpion episode, and of course Sisko was at Wolf-359 at the beginning of the pilot episode Emissary. Then of course there's the TNG episodes directly relative to the subject, including the Borg interest in Picard in the first place to take and turn into Locutus, and, the final link in the circle, the movie First Contact. That is 4 different crews linked in a huge, multiepisodic crossover spaning several years.
In fact, with this fill circle, a remake of First Contact or even The Best of Both Worlds could be made with a different outcome, because the Borg have knowledge of what the original outcome would be because of that Enterprise episode transmission
Almost, but I'm talking about the cube in ”Q Who,” not ”The Best of Both Worlds.” Although that fact STILL might be true, since Sisko was part of the design team for the Defiant, which was developed in response to the Borg threat to the Federation after the initial contact in ”Q Who.” The final connection is in the Voyager episode ”Death Wish,” when Janeway tells Q, ”And, oh, yes, you introduced us to the Borg, thank you very much.”
This was funny as well.
BASHIR: That was close.
O'BRIEN: Me. Of all the people in the lineup, he asks me who threw the first punch.
BASHIR: And you lied to him.
O'BRIEN: I lied to Captain Kirk. I wish Keiko could have been here to see it.
What makes these crossover episodes and movies so good is that characters are the focus. Previously established characters that are well loved put into new situations. They took the time and worked for it to make sense that these characters would be interacting the way they are.
Absolutely hilarious that the Doctor Who and Startrek Crossover are Borg and Cybermen, considering that the Borg were inspired by the Cybermen to begin with. Nice little nod to that in the comic.
I agree with you on Worf. He wasn't a cast member until red was his new color
Me, clicking on the video: TRIALS AND TRIBBLE-ATIONS OR GTFOOOOO
The major problem with 'Mirror Universe' episodes is that considering the HUGE difference in Histories, the chance that the same people would even be alive at the same time to even meet and HAVE children with each other at the exact time they did in OUR Universe is slim to vanishing. Therefore, the chance that you would ever meet a double of yourself is practically impossible.
Makes sense, unless there are an infinite number of universes and somehow the more parallel the universes are, the closer together those parallel universes are.
I just watched Q-less for the first time and it's great, I would say it's one if my fav cross over episodes because Q keeps referring to the difference between Picard and Sisco lol.
Thank you for not including the monstrosity that was Enterprise's last episode. That episode should have never happened.
The episode itself was fine. The monstrosity of it was that it was a series finale. That was a beast of a mistake.
@@thfpt Horrible even for an episode. You mean in 11 years, there is no relationship between T'Pol and Trip... oh, AND THEY KILLED TRIP. It was a TNG episode, not an Enterprise episode. It also killed any possibility of a movie.
@@thfpt They fucking killed Trip for no apparent reason! It was completely unnecessary, and added nothing to the storyline. It was a horrible end to one of the best characters. Not a "fine episode" for that single reason alone. Sorry!
Fortunately, the novel series fixed the flaw called Trip's death.
It's possible I could see it in a different light nowadays, I haven't watched it since it aired at least a dozen years ago. To me, that was the big problem, the rewatchability of it just isn't there. It's like the whole series was an afterthought meant to keep bored, unemployed actors busy until something came along.
I took Scottys work advice...If a job takes 45 minutes I tell my supervisor it is going to take me an hour and ten minutes 🤣
For Tuvok in ST:GEN, that wasn’t really Tuvok; it was an unnamed character. If you note the lack of pointed ears, you have a very non-Tuvok character in the movie.
Within the Trekverse, there's always seems to be someone who has a doppelganger in another species in another adventure. The unnamed Romulan Commander from "Balance of Terror" and Sarek from "Journey to Babel" is another example. I know there's nothing in Memory Alpha to explain it, but I wonder if there's something in fan fiction that could. Even Kirk and Spock had to have noticed the resemblance between the latter's father and the Commander after the Babel mission. And what about Data and his ancestors all looking alike? Janeway identical to her ancestor from "11:59?" (The Voyager episode, not a link to the video) I'm sure there are a plethora (I love those big words!) of other examples I'm missing. Feel free to include more on this thread. I could use a trip down Memory Lane right now. 😁👍
Will Vanderbilt T'pol and her ancestor from Carbon Creek.
Anyone played by Jeffrey Combs or Vaughn Armstrong!
Also, Jake Sisko is going to grow up to look and sound like Worf's brother Kurn and his Hirogen cousin in the Delta Quadrant.
@Greg Warden
It wasn't originally Tuvok, no. But that episode of Voyager retroactively made the nameless film character Tuvok. They retconned the film with that episode.
Great work.
Well researched - and very well put together visually.
Very good video. I really like the crossover episodes. And you're a delightful lunatic... 😆
"Pathfinder" is one of my favourite episodes of Star Trek.
The first item on the list isn't just a crossover with TOS, considering it is really a sequel to a TOS episode. Kira even talks about the influence our Kirk had in her universe.
It's all a sequel to TOS.
@@alphanerd7221 your point?
@@BigJeremyBeyer That you don't have one.
"This episode comes from the original series."
Yeah, they all do. Who doesn't know that?
Thumbs up for Rom; taking that back!
No _Once More unto the Breach_
starring the first Klingon in Star Trek broadcast history, in his final Star Trek role.
3:23 Picard was not in his ready room for the scene where he was blowing up emotionally with Sarek's emotions. That's one weird oversight.
Maybe they didn't want him distracting the Bridge Crew with all of his emotional yelling which they could probably hear through the ready room door so they put him somewhere else.
That's not Tuvok in Generations. He's not even a Vulcan 🙄
Ahh good. I'm glad I'm not the only one who's fanboy enough to notice the error lol
I was going to comment this myself. He's never mentioned by name I don't think, but if he was, it wouldn't be Tuvok.
Correct, it's only a crossover if the actor is playing the same character; that was a pre-cameo, if anything, since Tim Russ had not yet been cast as Tuvok.
Ignoring that flaw ..... Kirk, Scotty, and Chekov WERE in Generations, so that's still a crossover. lol
if anyone ever does a George Lucas to ST and decides to go back and add new CGI into it. I'd be fine with them putting pointed ears on 'Tuvok'.
Reg was a fuckin bro. Easily my favorite underdog of the entire series.
I miss deep space nine. Specially Worf and Jadzia Dax. Such a missed oporunity
Funnily enough, I didn't watch Star Trek, more of a Wars/Gate fan, but HEARING Trek meant Dad was home watching it downstairs after we went to bed. That meant everything was safe and alright. So being safe is hearing to Trek (mostly original series and Next Gen- but he loves all of them)
Absolutely I remember when that episode aired and they even did a special interview with the cast and crew loved Trials and Tribulations.
This was a good story idea for a video! Keep 'em coming!
Very good collection of crossover episodes. The "Unification" episodes are great. I am really smitten with "The Inner Light". I consider that to be the finest STNG episode.
Figured The Emissary would have made the list with the interactions with Sisko and Picard
Been really looking forward to this installment, please add captions.
The episode of TNG where the ship was in the lethal scanner thing and everyone had to evacuate. Picard for back for a horse saddle and ends up running into Tim Russ who was part of a crew to steal stuff from the ships engines
Excellent! I’m surprised you didn’t touch on the fact that Scotty thought that Kirk had rescued him in “relics” even though he thought Kirk was dead at that point in the timeline.
I will be patiently waiting for my What Culture Christmas Party invitation. Thank you.
You're not meant to get an invite. You just show up and start a brawl.
In Trials & Trebble-ations it was great seeing Sisko meet Kirk as a fan . Plus the Temporal agent agreeing he would have done the same:)
The greatest Captain of Star Trek.
A crossover video that is itself a crossover. Brilliant!
There is a book, Planet X, which is a crossover between X-Men and Star Trek TNG. It is really fun and well made, and they even have a good explanation at the end for the Crossover.
NICELY DONE. You hit all my favs. Except "In a MIrror Darkly" (mentioned by another poster. Which is surprising really... I thought it was well done.
Thank you! That was a joy to watch
I absolutely agree with #1 - "Trials and Tribbleations!" Much background production info available on how the original set proportions were [almost accidentally] achieved (which made it work); In OG-e[episode blends flawlessly executed;0 THIS was a true a Anniversary and tribute GEM!
For the bit about tuvok on the bridge of the excelsior in st6: all discontinuity in star trek can be explained away with; time travel butterfly effect stuff stemming from all the time travel in star trek. Yes every single last continuity problem can be explained as a butterfly effect from the time war in enterprise, time travel stuff in tos, time travel stuff from stng, ds9, voyager, star trek 4, first contact, and the first movie in the kelvin timeline. Yes all the continuity problems are from time travel mucking everything up.
No. Tuvok wasn't a bridge officer.
Excellent crossover transition, very fun.
#7 Defiant -- The end of that episode teases the two-parter where the Tal Shiar & Obsidian Order team up to attack The Founder's homeworld and get crushed
The Doctor Who/ST:TNG X-Over got me back into comic book collecting back in 2012.
"Monkee hits with Kraftwerk beats" just F'N BRILL mate!
The first is Rom.
My favorite of your videos.
Well done.
DS9 S2EP19 Blood Oath. Kang, from TOS and VOY (Flashback), along with Koloth and Kor. It's a enjoyable episode exploring aspects of the Trill, Kingons, commitment to friends, and getting old.
Hi,
Yes, I was blown away at the time by the DS9 Tribble episode after seeing the original Trek (Tribble/Guineapig sillyness) with Kirk as a youngster & thinking (to my mind.) "tosh.." From what I can gather. They got the original film & lighting crew in for consultation on integrating the old with the new on that episode? & to my eye, it was flawless.. I have to admit to preferring the seemingly darker DS9.
Lol, you probably guessed I'm more classic Star Wars. But even the Tribble DS9'er years previously outshines Rogue one.
Regarding it's CGI homage of old characters. Though Vader was at his more brutal during the climax of R1.
That said, I enjoyed your vid, & learned something new regarding the cannon of Doctor Who...
Yep I also seem to switch allegiance regarding which "universe" I happen to be in at the time..
I just wannabe entertained in a genre that suits my taste.
Anyhow, keep doing what you do...
Lol! Crossover within a crossover! I love it! And I happily subscribe to both...
There was also a couple of X-Men and Star Trek crossovers. One in comic books, and the other was the novel "Planet X" by Michael Jan Friedman
2 comics actually. 1 was the original Star Trek and the other was TNG, picking up from where First Contact left off. The Planet X novel is a direct sequel to the X-Men/TNG comic, too.
Hell, TrekCulture can probably get a few videos just covering Comic crossovers, both Trek/Trek and (naturally) Trek/EVERYTHING ELSE.
Hey I glad that you talk about Worf in this because to me he was really awesome to see to DS9!!!!!!!!!!!
The Trouble with Tibbles and the later episode on Deep Space was really good
You left out “These Are The Voyages”!
I’m just kidding. 😂
I am glad that wasn't included! Regeneration should have been though.
Best channel ever. I love it when Adam is the host.
This list needs to be updated!
haven't seen this whole list yet but I noticed that your surgery goes through the Looking Glass. It made me think it would've been funny to have crossover on this list considering that they are the 10 greatest crossover episodes and that is its title. It didn't exactly have characters from the other series but it did specifically mention Kirk because that's how they figured out where they were, the universe that Kirk crossed into.
My favourite crossover moment remains McCoy’s poignant, handing of the torch appearance at the close of TNG’s pilot episode, Encounter At Farpoint. “You treat her like a lady, and she’ll always bring you home”.
I always thought "Regeneration" was a good one, not only as a crossover (Enterprise/First Contact), but as a good sequel to First Contact as well.
I scrolled through some of the comments but didn't see it and it wasn't on this list but "Shattered Mirror" from DS9 was my favorite and it was better than through the looking glass. That battle with the Negh'var at the end was really fun, as was Worf as the Regant.
Tim Russ (tuvok) also played a small role in a tng episode called starship mine (S6 E18)
What about Enterprise with The Augments, Affliction, and Regeneration. These episodes of Enterprise include "crossovers" with augments of which Kahn was one, Dr. Arik Soong without whom Data would have possibly never been, the whole Klingon enhancement stuff, as well as the Borg related episode being something of a time loop that comes from future to be found in the past which in turn creates its future. And then nothing about Q in Voyager....... All some great episodes that I think crossover or are at least related and deserve honorable mentions.
I think their version of honorable mentions were at the beginning of the video. During that montage they showed Q and Riker on Voyager, as well as McCoy in the TNG pilot.
“What is this a crossover episode?” Trials and Tribulations is great.
Tim Russ has actually been in a few ST recordings... he was also in ST Generations as the transporter operator (on the bridge) of the Enterpsie B during the opening sequence.
Seen the generations movie on tv, last week, And not kidding,mandala effect or not Tim Russ has vulcan ears and Tuvoks vocal cadence. Neat.
Honorable mention to the Star Trek/X-Men one shot comic. If for no other reason than the panel where Kirk calls for "Dr. McCoy" and BOTH Bones and the Beast answer. :)
Yes I love the line Thomas Riker snogging with Kira.
The episode with Sarek in TNG is one of my favorite episodes 😎
Totally agree with the list. Love it!
Episode where Data has lightning thrown at him by some device of Dr. Bashir's. Same episode Cromwell speaks of Mogh.
Yes, that was TNG’s “Birthright” (Part I), when E-D was docked at DS9 and Bashir brought over that device to analyze on the starship’s computer. Data got a shock from it, which triggered the dream program that Dr. Soong installed. That episode would more qualify as a top 10 Trek crossover then either of Voyager’s on that list (“Flashback” and “Pathfinder”). One VOY ep that should have been on the list would be “Death Wish”, which featured Q and Will Riker.
