Template:Realworld Over the years, Star Trek's position as a cultural icon has resulted in many parodies of it on other television shows and movies. While some have been subtle tip-of-the-hat references, others have been complete copies, with the intention to reference Star Trek. Template:StarTrekParodies

Fan-made parodies

Hick Trek

Produced by ATOZ Films in the 1980's, this white-trash parody of "Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan" played at conventions for years until a "Special Edition" version, with added effects, was released on video in 1999. The Redneck Federation Starship RSS Bovine battles spacefaring cats.


Star Track: The Next Hesitation

Star Track: The Next Hesitation [1] is a web series that takes a satirical approach to expanding on the Star Trek universe. Produced in Montreal, Quebec, it is one of the only known Star Trek fan films to be produced regularly in Canada. Episodes are released on a bi-monthly basis. For a good laugh be sure to check out these episodes all available online.

Other parodies

  • "Mad Magazine" parodies called "Star Blecch!". (The title alteration followed to parodies of the films and sequel series.)
  • Sev Trek by John Cook, is a web comic parody of Star Trek (as well as many other popular sci-fi shows) from The Original Series to Voyager. It even spawned a computer animated "episode" of Sev Trek: TNG.
  • Stone Trek depicts a cross between the originial Star Trek and The Flintstones.
  • In 2006, former Mystery Science Theater 3000 co-stars Mike Nelson and Kevin Murphy recorded an audio commentary track mocking Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. The commentary was made available as an Internet-only download through Nelson's RiffTrax service.
  • Some pornographic material depicts Star Trek. One site depicts Commander Riker having sex with Deanna Troi on the bridge, another depicts her as a domminatrix. Some pornographic material even depicts the Enterprise going to obviously pornographically named places.

I'm a doctor, not a...

Dr. Leonard H. McCoy's signature phrase "I'm a doctor, not a..." occurs in several parodies and homages to Star Trek:

  • On the TV series Unfabulous, Principal Brandywine uses lines that follow the pattern of, "This is school [or name of a school-related object or place], not a/an/the [event, time, place or object unrelated to school]!", or "You're a middle school student, not [a famous person who does what the student is doing]!", or "I'm a middle school principal, not a doctor [or other jobs outside school]!"
