Hey, he specifically said Voyager, that's important. If he hadn't said that, there'd be three times as many episodes on TNG alone, Voyager's just too bland to be controversial often. When you know it's Voyager, it's either Threshold, or the Very Special Episode about how hypnotists are giving people false memories that reads like an MRA screed about false rape accusations, or the one about how Native Americans had literally no culture before they were given one by aliens from space. And nobody ever remembers those other two.

In that episode Pat brings up, they didn't clone Harry Kim. There was a spacial anomaly in which the entire ship was split into two tangential realities. So neither ship is the original or a copy. By the end of the episode, one of the Voyagers gets destroyed and the other escapes, however, he Harry Kim from the ship that stays together is killed and the Harry Kim from the one that gets destroyed switches ships and survives. So... yeah, it's not the same Harry, but neither is it really a clone. He's has had all the same memories and experiences as the other Harry up until the moment the ship split. So it is essentially the same guy as always. Still kinda jarring to think about though.

[@SeruraRenge11]

Close. The one that died was from the ship that got utterly wrecked, and the ship that was fine has its shields go down at the most inopportune time which allows a boarding invasion by the Vidiians to harvest them.

To clarify, because this gets misunderstood a lot, but both Harrys are the original Harry. Voyager got split into two Voyagers simultaneously, but one Voyager lost its Harry and the other had to sacrifice itself to save the first Voyager, so they sent their Harry over before self-destructing. It's a zany premise but Harry is just as much the real deal as the rest of them are to him.

Glad to see I wasn't the only person watching random Star Trek episodes lately either.

[@darthekul1]

Remember that time on star trek enterprise when they showed the scene from first contact in season 4 and instead of doing the proper vulcan gesture cochram takes out a gun and shoots the vulcans and takes the ship and suprise !!! Its the origin of the mirror universe, and we see captain archer and his evil crew find a original series constitution class ship that actually went missing in canon and cause they have technology from the future , thats how they were able to conquer as much as they did , its a really good episode even if u hate enterprise , like remember the time archer and the comic relief doctor sided with eugenics and genocide for the menk?

"Well maybe they just commit more crime"

[@jled787]

You just don't understand, they were in the Delta Quadrant. Sh*ts fucked over there.

[@SeruraRenge11]

Lt. Tom Redpill. The most hilarious part is he turned out to be right.

[@GrayD_Fox]

He doesn’t say oh no, i’ve watched that clip numerous times. He just goes “I’m disabled’?” confusedly then the best reveal ever happens

[@Shadar22]

Remember that time in sliders where Rembrandt got mpreg?

[@rheariala1059]

The episode where they turned into lizards and had babies was the first episode of Star Trek I ever saw. I have not watched it since.

[@GregorCaliber]

Pat with the ABSOLUTE NO SCOPE

[@GabeSweetMan]

Pat's face after mentioning the planet of violent black people is the most perfect shit eating grin. Misleading, yet accurate descriptions of Star Trek episodes are so much fun regardless of whether they are good or bad. Remember when Frank Sinatra was the Love-matic Grandpa?

[@Kaarl_Mills]

Now its Pats turn to go super saiyan through the power of racisim

[@EBurns91]

And that same Sinatra helped a capitalist alien specie cadet recover from PTSD from his lost leg.

[@SeruraRenge11]

I wouldn't even say that the Ligonians were violent, just really sexist. And it mainly came across as racist because of the director's decision to make everyone in that society as black and look like they're wearing tribal outfits, when they were written as like lizard people with a Bushido-like code.

[@manjackson2772]

@@SeruraRenge11 OK so here's the thing. The same writer wrote Emancipation for SG-1, which is the same script, and that one was also racist and sexist as hell. So either she got really unlucky, or she had some input on the process here.

[@SeruraRenge11]

@@manjackson2772 Unpopular opinion: While "Code of Honor" is terrible, it's not at the same level of terribleness as, say, "Threshold" or "Sub Rosa". What truly makes "Code of Honor" terrible is the decision made, at production time, to cast all African-American actors as the Ligonians. Without that, it's a poorly-executed Mars Needs Women plot that relies too heavily on "Amok Time" for its resolution - a bad script, but a coherent one. Compared to something like the others, where even just the script leaves you asking "what the hell did I just read?" and it is clear that "Code"'s trouble lies mostly in its execution rather than its conception.

[@thunderphoenix440]

Do you remember that time Worf wrestled this rubber alien, but the rubber alien was a shape-shifter, so it shape-shifted into an old lady, and Worf tried to backhand the old lady.

[@theycallmejojo6090]

The final season of TNG is fascinating to me because it has some of the best in the entire franchise like All Good Things but on the flip side it also has some really bizarrely bad episodes like Sub Rosa and Masks.

[@SeruraRenge11]

And the episode with Spiderlord Barclay And the one where the Enterprise is a train And the one about how warp drives are bad for the universe in a really contrived environmentalist message And the one with Picard's "son" And the one with Worf's brother which has a really confusing message about the PD And the REALLY preachy Native American episode where Picard is supposed to feel guilty for something that happened like 700 years ago and that's why he can't do the right thing NOW And the second half of that fucking terrible 2-parter Descent that is probably the worst way to cap off the Data/Lore arc on top of being imo the true start of the Borg looking pathetic, not Voyager Yeah, we got stuff like AGT, Parallels, Lower Decks, The Pegasus, and the Gambit 2-parter, but goddamn did s7 make it clear they were running out of ideas.

[@Shadar22]

I unironically love it whenever they talk about the stupid trek shit.

[@crimsonECH1DNA]

Ah the space Africa episode of TNG lol

[@shotguncrucifix]

Matt and Pat talked about the Janeway/Paris episode in that retro Star Trek video. I think they were playing on the SNES but I can't remember which game specifically.

[@Weazel1]

Always wanted an episode of Enterprise to open with chaos on the bridge, people yelling out damage reports and weapons failing. Cut to Archer looking around in confusion, says “Oh boy”, opening credits.

[@michaelmaguire4147]

There was a video I watched way back that posited that the warp scale is a sliding one, and as the technology improved "warp 10" just kept getting moved back further from the new standard speed.

[@Toksyuryel]

Sliders had an episode where they genuinely, *actually* made it home... but thought they weren't home because the fence gate didn't squeak and only had about one minute to decide so they left again.

[@grandobsidian]

The only episode of Sliders I ever saw was they artificially impregnate John Rhys Davies

[@Vaishino]

Wait did Sliders have two mpreg episodes? Because I distinctly remember an episode where Remy got pregnant too

[@SkyfireHero]

Sounds like everyone here should watch the Quantum Break Vs Sliders Podcast over on the Gigaboots podcast network for more great conversations like this one

[@WeaponOfMyDestructio]

One that sticks with me is how Aku catfished Jack so hard they almost kissed. I always wondered how far he would of went to get to that portal first.

[@kazy8029]

I can't think about Quantum Leap with hearing that Berserk song because of the internet.

[@UnrealMisterD]

Do you remember that time on Star Trek when Data went crazy and Picard had to LARP in Eyes Wide Shut cosplay to take back the ship?

[@Shadow6OO]

7:45 2X HYENA LAUGH BREAKER!!!

[@talljoke]

One day I will watch Star Trek. But I'm in no rush, because watching fans talk about weird episodes with no context is one of my favourite things.

[@blusterkong4556]

IMO people dont talk about the DS9 pregnancy swap enough

[@DaleErnieMichael]

Just breezing past Pat calling Ensign Kim Chinese is really funny knowing the Twitter battle over his ethnicity between Garret Wang and Nick Mullen. One of the funniest internet feuds in history over the dumbest joke.

[@KnowOne1701]

I have never laughed at an episode of Castle Siper Beast than I have with this one! And the worst part is I love Star Trek, but don't consider myself that much of a nerd... but I do recognize the absurdity of the episode if I look at them, honestly. 10:28. I see how silly explaining an episode of ST our if context can be, while hearing it makes me burst out into laughter! Now, I'm thinking of Warf projectile vomiting on Woolie & Pat trying to get them pregnant while he's screaming about being a good day to die!🤣🤣🤣 12:17. Look up "Transformers have weird Names ( stop motion)" here on KZbin and you'll find out that you about Optimus have the same thing in common... minus the awkward names!😂

[@flmalegre]

7:35 Here's the free serotonin button. You're welcome.

[@Nillson1991]

Reminds me how they kinda answered what happen to original Harry's body in the MMO

[@mattaardsma8245]

Do you remember when Scotty killed a bunch of women because he got possessed by an alien entity that also possessed Jack the Ripper?

[@skizzmt6291]

And then they got the crew high to keep them calm because the alien feeds on terror. And then Spock traps the alien with Pi. And then Kirk is like "everyone else is high Spock, let's go visit some whores"

[@SeruraRenge11]

I know there were problems with how she was written but I can't not love Janeway. Yeah, she's inconsistent depending on the writers, but still at least a third of the time she's got a straightforward no bullshit kind of approach that gives me Granny Weatherwax vibes. I love it when a character is given a contrived pseudo-philosophical quandary like it's a gotcha question and their response is to brute force their own answer because they don't respect the question.

[@hiroprotagonest]

One of my favorite bits from Galaxy Quest is "This episode was badly written! IT WAS BADLY WRITTEN!"

[@gstut1]

someone made a video of that quantum leap moment to guts theme

[@SwagBroPlays]

Mike and Rich lookin,.....different

[@trifontrifonov4297]

SF Debris, one of the true OG, does overview of Star Trek episodes on his website and he had one of the great alternative reads of Janeway. Just by using what's in the show he gave us Janeway of Borg, a omnicidal mad scientist that is enjoying the constant suffering of the crew and especially Harry Kim's suffering. Oh and the horrible mess that was Chakotay, became Chief Religious Experience Officer Chakotay. Fun stuff. Most of it is not on KZbin for obvious reasons.

[@SeruraRenge11]

For me it's Lorerunner.

[@goronhead]

It only just hit me that Pat's setup looks different this week because he's in the same physical space as Woolie
