The Adam & Joe Show[]
Each episode of this British series featuring Joe Cornish contained a parody sketch of a 90's film or TV series using childrens toys. In episode four of series three, "Stuffed Trek: The Toy Generation" saw the crew of the KinderSurprise, including Mr. Datoy, and Deanna Toy, face off aginst the cybernetic Bjorn Borg. It also showed a more detailed knowledge of The Next Generation than many other parodies, including the love triangle between Riker, Troi, and Worf, and Guinan serving real alcohol when a distate for synthehol is expressed.
A cutout of Data was also seen in the background of the screen which showed the series' website address.
Adventure Time[]
In "Holly Jolly Secrets Part II," a shredded picture can be seen inside the tree fort which appears to depict someone in an Original Series uniform holding a phaser-like weapon. The episode also has Finn saying "We gotta unravel these evil secrets at warp crazy!"
A number of Star Trek cast members provided voice work for the series. Notably, Jonathan Frakes voiced the adult version of Finn in the episodes "Puhoy" and "Dungeon Train." Ricardio, was voiced by George Takei. Additional voices were filled by LeVar Burton, Marina Sirtis, Michael Dorn, and Wallace Shawn.
Aladdin: The Series[]
In "To Cure a Thief", Genie transforms into an alien having Vulcan ears and wearing an outfit similar to the one from the later TOS movies and his manner of speech is similar to that of Dr. McCoy.
Alvin and the Chipmunks[]
The episode "Star Wreck: The Absolutely Final Frontier" is a parody of the Star Trek series, the title is the parody of Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, Alvin is Captain Kirk, Simon is Mr. Spock, Theodore is Dr. McCoy, Eleanor is the female version of Chekov, Janette is Uhura, and Alvin's ship is similar in design of the Miranda-class starship (which looks the saucer section of the Ambassador-class with two hyperjets in the bottom). Alvin's ship encounters an alien family which wants the galaxy to be the same and the giant vacuum cleaner which threatens to destroys his ship.
American Dad![]
American Dad! is an animated show that runs on the Fox network. Created by Seth MacFarlane, it features many Star Trek references. The show also features Patrick Stewart in the recurring role of CIA Deputy Director Avery Bullock.
"All About Steve"[]
An upcoming sci-fi con will feature a Klingon wedding followed by a Klingon divorce.
Steve and his friends wear TOS-era Starfleet uniforms into the New York Yankees locker room which embarrasses Stan. They also wear their uniforms to the con complete with toy phasers. Two other teenage boys also wear uniforms.
Steve compares his jock strap to a protective force field.
There is a poster of the Enterprise NCC-1701 in the basement where Steve and his friends play.
Two of the booths at the con are "Starfleet Emporium" and "Starfleet Universe."
"Star Trek"[]
The episode's title parodies the franchise title while making a play on words. The episode centers on the rise and fall of Steve's career as a child author. The only other reference is the two vicious guard dogs at Steve's mansion, who are named Sulu and Chekov.
"Not Particularly Desperate Housewives"[]
After a dog Stan tried to get rid of returns, Stan tells the dog it has earned a warrior's death. He then goes to the closet and takes out a bat'leth and prepares to kill it, but then Roger pops in and the dog attacks him. Stan decides to keep the dog, but feels that not using the bat'leth would be a waste, so he decides to use it on eBay, specifically he would use it to kill his enemies that are on eBay.
"Meter Made"[]
An exchange between Steve and Roger, about how people in Heaven saw what Steve had done.
Roger: "...Star Trek's James Doohan." Steve: "Scotty saw?" Roger: "Scotty watched the whole damn thing."
"May the Best Stan Win"[]
In this episode, Stan talks about the face he will make when he's frozen after he goes into cryo, just like "Han Solo... from Star Trek". Clearly, he's confusing Trek with another popular franchise.
"One Little Word"[]
Bullock selects Stan to be his "Number One," the informal title Jean-Luc Picard gave to William T. Riker. However, instead of being Bullock's second-in-charge, Stan becomes Bullock's errand boy. Francine serves baby-sitter to Bullock's mentally disturbed wife and to his infant child.
"Escape from Pearl Bailey"[]
After Steve's girlfriend leaves him, Snot tries to reassure him: "She isn't fit enough to re-calibrate your tricorder."

"Lost in Space"[]
One of the slaves aboard the mall ship is a particularly muscular Andorian.
"I Ain’t No Holodeck Boy"[]
The CIA constructs a holodeck operating on the same engineering principles and control interface as seen in The Next Generation. Stan and Dick outright refer to it as this only for Bullock to be ignorant of the term. When Steve later takes control of it, a Gorn head can be seen as an image on the console.
Animaniacs[]
In the segment entitled "Space Probed", the Warners are taken on board an alien spacecraft, and Marvin the Martian, Darth Vader, and Captain Picard are briefly shown in a waiting room together - part of a chase initiated after Yakko yells "Look - it's big, fat Scotty from Star Trek!" and escapes when his alien captors look for the engineer.
A segment of Animaniacs titled "Star Truck" featured Yakko, Wakko, and Dot being beamed aboard the original Enterprise, (albeit done up with monster truck wheels, as per the cartoon's title), claiming the Starfleet delegates who were supposed to be there were "really busy" (at which point you see two Andorians, one in a TOS Starfleet uniform, the other in a TOS film tunic, sitting on a couch playing video games), and wreaking havoc among the crew. (The characters are clearly genuine fans of the show, as upon meeting "Kirk", they ask to "go back to New York in the 1930s," where he could "fall in love with Joan Collins," who would then die, "go lookin' for Mr. Spork's brain," or Harry Mudd, or Roger Mudd, and Wakko asks to "swim with the whales.") Gags included Wakko introducing Scotty to doughnuts (thus causing him to become portly and have a pink frosting mustache), Spork mind-melding with them in sickbay, and then saying their trademark "Hel-lo Nurse!" line when Uhura enters, and when Khan appears, Yakko comments, "Ooooh, it's Ricardo Montalban and his big plastic chest!" (an obvious parody of the fan rumor that Montalban's chest in Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan was a prosthetic appliance, and not his actual physique). Dot later proposes to distract Khan's crew "with a fancy fan dance", riffing on Uhura's dance from Star Trek V: The Final Frontier. When the Warners take control of the ship, Yakko takes the command chair and sits on a tribble.
Another episode of Animaniacs contained a segment titled "Karaoke Dokie" which made fun of the singing careers of Shatner ("Willie Slackner") and Nimoy (shown complete with pointy ears).
In the episode "Moby or Not Moby," the Warners perform a musical number to the tune of the sea shanty "Drunken Sailor", in an attempt to convince Captain Ahab to stop hunting whales. One of the things they recommend he do is "watch Star Trek IV."
In the segment "Please Please Pleese Get a Life Foundation", a model of the Enterprise and a poster saying "Kirk Vs. Picard" can be seen in the room of nitpicking geek.
In "Suspended Animation Pt. II", the first episode of the Hulu relaunch, the Warners catch sight of two workers carrying a model of the USS Enterprise, which surprises Yakko. The workers explain the concept of a reboot, bringing back old IPs for a new generation (or as one worker puts it, for the "next generation", if he "makes it so"). The duo then perform the Vulcan salute before leaving.

Drewbacca, a shaved Wookie and the episode's antagonist, is revealed by Frylock to be a bass player for a Star Trek tribute band called "Tribble Tunez", and holds up a promotional photo featuring the bandmates dressed in TOS-style Starfleet uniforms. Before that, Drew attempts to pawn a bass amp he used in the band that is furry like a tribble. Drew also signs two cassettes for Master Shake that he plans to sell on eBay, one of which has a Spock drawing, and another a tribble. Finally, as Frylock is ready to kill Drew with a "lightwaver" but is interrupted by the pawn shop clerk, he uses the window of opportunity to request a beam up on a communicator and is teleported away just as Frylock swings at him and misses.
"A PE Christmas"[]
The lyrics to Master Shake's Christmas rap include "Rollin' out tracks and gettin' it on like The Wrath of Khan with Ricardo Montalban".
"Vampirus"[]
Master Shake participates in a televised interview about his immunity to vampire attacks. To justify his selfishness by not helping anybody else become immune, he misquotes Spock from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan by saying "The needs of the many... something."

They attend high school where their teachers are often at a loss as to how to deal with them, although in many episodes, the two skip school. They occasionally work part-time at Burger World and sometimes other side-jobs when people mistake their odd behavior as outgoing and assertive.
The comedic value is supposed to be derived from their utter lack of conventional values: they are highly obnoxious, misogynistic, and rude to almost every other character in the show, and even to each other. They do not seem to realize this however and seem to function on an instinctual level. They survive their often-hazardous misadventures without serious consequences though others around them don't fare as well. Mixed within each episode are segments in which Beavis and Butt-Head watch asinine music videos and provide humorous and bizarre commentary improvised by Judge.
"Dream On"[]
Butt-Head has a dream where he and Beavis portray the roles of Jean-Luc Picard and William T. Riker, respectively. One line recalled from the episode, spoken by Butt-Head was, "Number One, I order you to go take a number two."

"Pumping Iron"[]

"Da Doggone Daddy/Daughter Dinner Dance"[]
After accidentally killing the family dog and lying to his stepchildren, Cleveland tries to find a way to fix it, but he says doing so is harder than trying to identify a rapist at a Star Trek convention.

They and their leader, K'Chutha Sa'am (Yosemite Sam), resemble the TOS Klingons in appearance and behavior.

"Pig Amok"[]
Duckman's partner, Cornfed, learns he is going to die within twenty-four hours unless he loses his virginity. One of the places Duckman takes him to meet women is a Star Trek convention (rationalizing that "We need women who never meet desirable men").

In this two-part episode, the Titans go on a space-themed adventure which Robin wants to be like Star Trek, while the other Titans want the adventure to be more like Star Wars. Mainly parodying the rivalry between Star Trek and Star Wars, the episode also parodies many references from Star Trek such as Titans Tower becoming a starship with T-shaped warp nacelles, Robin doing a William Shatner impression when he acts like a starship captain, the Titans wearing uniforms that look like pajamas and Beast Boy wearing a red uniform that means he's expendable, finding an alien probe from a long dead race that lets people experience an entirely different life in only a few minutes and learn how to play an instrument and Robin calling Darkseid's plan to move planet Apokolips into a star system, which will cause obstructions and property values to plummet a con and yells "CONN!!!"

Tiny Toon Adventures[]
The second episode "A Quack in the Quarks" is largely a parody of Star Wars, but the "elders" of an alien race that kidnaps Plucky Duck are closely modeled on the Talosians from the pilot episode of The Original Series.
An episode had the famous starship (commanded by Plucky Duck) looking for replacement hair for the captain's toupee (no doubt a joke on Shatner's alleged replacement hair). A notable line is, "I'm a doctor, not a barber!" Another episode featured caricatures of Kirk, Spock, and McCoy beaming down to a fast food restaurant to eat.
Frank Welker provided the voices for Furrball, Gogo Dodo, Calamity Coyote, Little Beeper, Byron Basset, Barky Marky, and Chewcudda.

The episode "Deep Space Droopy" features Droopy and Dripple as Captain and Junior Captain of the USS Droopster, based on the USS Enterprise. Both wear uniforms similar to those used on Star Trek: The Original Series, with Dripple having a black bowl-cut hairstyle and pointed ears in a parody of Spock.
The Transformers[]
This animated series made frequent use of Trek sound effects, most notably the classic "door sound" and parts of the transporter "beaming" sound.
In "The Return of Optimus Prime, Part 1", the character Wreck-gar (who speaks by parroting phrases of popular television shows and movies, Star Trek apparently one of them) says "I'm a doctor not a forklift!" and "He's dead, Jim."
Transformers: Robots in Disguise (2015)[]
At one point, Ratchet (voiced by Jeffrey Combs) references Star Trek's Doctor Leonard McCoy with an utterance of "I'm a medic, not an inventor!"
Tripping the Rift[]
Featuring Terry Farrell (pilot only).
Tripping the Rift was a CGI-animated series that was featured on the Sci-Fi Channel about a misfits starship crew traveling the universe. The coarse humor of the series relied heavily on parodying sci-fi, both in general and from specific universes. Unsurprisingly, Star Trek was heavily featured.
One of the main characters is a tall, slim, big-breasted woman named "6 of 9," a reference to Seven of Nine.
The intro features a radio-controled spaceship toy looking Trek-like. The model is updated later into the series. Transporters are used throughout the series, often after a request to "beam us up." The hero ship, the Jupiter 42, is said to have a warp core (though rift factors are mentioned instead of warp factors), photon torpedoes, and tractor beams. Dilithium crystals and cloaking devices are also occasionally mentioned.
One of the two major factions in the series is called the confederation" (or occasionally even just Federation), and seems modeled after Starfleet from Star Trek, but with a cultural current of conservative values and WASP American culture, as well as capitalist motives. Their crewmembers are clothed in yellow TOS-like costumes. The main confederation character, captain Adam (full name, Adam Franklin Shatner), has a speech pattern reminiscent of that of Kirk.
Beyond these influences in the general make-up of the show, numerous individual episodes also refer to Star Trek. Some of these were in the form of a couch gag where the ship's computer would say something different at the end of each episode's intro.
The pilot, "Love and Darph," starts with an intro animation very reminiscent of that of The Next Generation. When the hero ship first comes into view, only the part "Enterprise" of its name is seen, then revealed to be part of its full name, "Free Enterprise". (this name was changed later) It then goes on to show Chode (the main character) recording a captain's log, stardate and all. He starts talking about his five hour mission, before he is interrupted. Chode will go on to record captain's logs occasionally through the series.
The bridge ambience in Darph Bobo's ship emit the same ambience noises as the bridge of the refitted U.S.S. Enterprise from Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan.
In "The Devil and a Guy Named Webster," Chode gets thrown out of his chair and wonders why captain's chairs aboard spaceships don't have seat belts.
In "2001 Space Idiocies," a prime directive not to interfere with primitive cultures is discussed.
In "Power to the Peephole," a movie called Debbie Does the Delta Quadrant is mentioned.
A "Nimoy CD" is mentioned in the couch gag of "Nature vs. Nurture".
The couch gag of "Aliens, Guns & A Monkey" mentions dilithium crystals.
In the opening credits for "Cool Whip," the ship's computer openly wonders if anyone really cares that Star Trek: Enterprise was cancelled.
"You Wanna Put That Where?" shows an accident involving a ship resembling the original Enterprise, and a drunk character resembling Spock is shown made to walk on a straight line, but falling down and giving the Vulcan salute. It is remarked that "Doctor Phill says that the reason Vulcans drink so much is because they have so much trouble dealing with their emotions." T'Nuk also mentions having screwed a Vulcan once on Mount Seleya.
"Ghost Ship" has Six watching Leonard Nimoy presenting what appears to be an episode of "In Search of..." relevant to the episode plot, only for Nimoy to go off topic, talking about how his greatest fear is to spend the rest his life being associated with a character he played for three seasons.
In "Extreme Chode," Spock is again seen drunkenly giving the Vulcan salute, among a group of Confederation personnel at a sports bar. Later he appears to be unsuccessfully trying to give someone a nerve pinch.
In "Roswell," an alien accused her husband of having the IQ of a tribble's ass.
The episode "Chode & Bobo's High School Reunion" has a character called "Captain Jim", who appears to be an extremely seedy parody of captain Kirk. He travels in a ship highly reminiscent of the Enterprise, and his speech patterns are an exaggerated parody of those of Kirk.
In "Creaturepalooza," a sex tape is shown of Captain Adam and his wife Nancy, with Nancy urging him to "go Deep Space Nine".
"Chode's Near-Death Experience" has a sequence showing what would have happened if Chode was never born. In it, Six captains the ship, dressed in something resembling a movie era uniform and speaking with a Kirk-like accent (this show really likes that accent), and Spock also served on the ship. They discuss the prime directive.
In "To eBay or Not to eBay," ukiyo-e painting appears in which Spock seems to have sex with a tentacled woman.
In "The Need for Greed," after Six takes over as captain, the crew adopts new uniforms which are Trek-like.
The cough gag for "Hollow Chode" has Bob wondering what Spock was always looking at in "that View-Master of his" (presumably this refers to his scope)
"Witness Protection" has a subplot about Bob in agonizingly boring conversation with a Starfleet-style starship. The ship talks about the good old days when ships still used to go where no man has gone before. Later it talks about how it never understood why the broads threw themselves at the captain. It speculates that this was all an act since "he and Scotty were a little light in the lithium crystals, if you know what I mean", further asking why he was always referring to his ship as a women, and what all that "she's gonna blow" talk was about. In a third scene, the ship complains about tribbles not being cute balls of fluff, but spacecraft crabs, claiming that he scratched for a month afterwards.
"The Son Also Rises" has an Andorian-like alien judge: he is blue with Andorian-like antenna's, but has blonde hair.
The cough gag for "Battle of the Bulge" has Bob claiming he almost flew into James Doohan's ashes. Later in the episode, Chode, wanting to have sex with six, proposes that they'd "boldly go where no man has gone before... or at least we haven't."
U[]
Ultimate Spider-Man[]
A Keldon-class ship can also be seen in an episode. (citation needed • edit)
Uncle Grandpa[]
Starring Kevin Michael Richardson and Eric Bauza.
"Space Oddity"[]
Pizza Steve, Mr. Gus, and Giant Realistic Flying Tigers wear outfits that resemble the outfits from the 1960s Star Trek series, with Pizza Steve wearing a Geordi La Forge VISOR. Their starship also resembles the USS Horizon, but with elements of the USS Enterprise with the same bridge, and the episode is very similar to the 1960s Star Trek TV series.
U.S. Acres[]
In a U.S. Acres segment of Garfield and Friends, titled "Swine Trek", Orson Pig is bedridden with a cold. He dreams he is a starship captain (although the ship looks like the barn with nacelles attached) in the mold of Kirk, with his friends as the other crew members. Wade Duck is the doctor, Sheldon the science officer (with pointed ears attached to his shell), Lanolin is the communications officer, and Bo the chief engineer. Roy is the helmsman, wearing a martial arts outfit, and Booker is the navigator, speaking only Russian. The segment also features an elaborate theme song in the vein of The Original Series (complete with lyrics, which were written for The Original Series theme that were never used).
Orson and his crew of the starship USS Barnyard NX-62085 travel to the planet Deneb 92 after receiving a distress call. After landing on the planet, it is revealed that the evil Porkons (Gort, Wart, and Mort) made the call to lure Orson's crew there so they can test their new secret weapon out on them. The crew easily defeat the Porkons by pelting them with proton tomatoes, and they run off leaving the secret weapon behind. Orson brings it aboard the spaceship and Bo opens it, which releases a space virus that sickens the crew.
Orson wakes up from the dream then and realizes that his cold is gone. The rest of the gang then walk back in and state that they caught Orson's cold, but they don't blame him because he'd warned them earlier. Booker then advises Orson to stay away from them to avoid getting sick again, but Orson remedies this by donning a spacesuit to nurse them.
Booker, Sheldon, Bo, and Mort were all voiced by Frank Welker.
V[]
VeggieTales[]
VeggieTales is a Christian children's animation which features two Star Trek parodies.
In the 1995 video "Are You My Neighbor," the segment "The Gourds Must Be Crazy" is based around a visit to a starship called the "U.S.S. Applepies" (with an appropriate dessert replacing the primary hull). The ship features a Scottish engineer named Scooter. In addition, in the 1997 video "Larry-Boy and the Fib from Outer Space," Jimmy and Jerry Gourd (who appeared as crew members of the Applepies) wear pointed ears. Later, in 2014, a sequel to the 1995 segment was released called "Veggies in Space: The Fennel Frontier".

W[]
The Weekenders[]
One episode of the The Weekenders features the pizza place being called Deep Dish 9 (an obvious reference to Deep Space 9). There is also a sound effect from The Original Series and the waiter says "One Photon Tro-pizza, hold the dilithium." in a William Shatner impression. Also, the waiter's outfit resembles The Next Generation uniforms.
