Debatable.
TNG did have a crossover with a forgotten sitcom named Webster. https://blog.trekcore.com/2015/03/tng-webster-crossover/
And who can forget Voyager having a wrestling episode.

As a fan of mysteries, my mind tends to clasp onto details that writers felt important enough to mention, but had no bearing on the plot up to this point.
The fact that the ship Tendi recovered was a “medical frigate” triggered such an alarm in my head. Yes the ship was able to gas the Blue Orions, but that’s hardly a feature unique to medical ships.
We Know:
- Tendi wants to come back to help raise her niece.
- Tendi wants to be a captain
- The finale is going to have some tear jerking moments
- This is the last season.
I think we’re being prepped for the main cast to go their separate ways, not unlike the DS9 finale.
We’ve had some foreshadowing with Freeman and Starbase 80. I wonder if the finale might end with her being posted there, as an admiral. Fix it up, that sort of thing, rather than an exile.
I really want the S5 set, and the S1 poster.
Not really sold on a full set at the moment.
This is why minorities are a prime scape goat for politicians.
Why be mad at some faceless corporation/politician, when you can blame the world’s issues on Garry that you see in the supermarket?
No. They’re aiming for that regardless.
Actually, I didn’t know. Never heard it used in an offensive context before today. But I’ll edit my comment just the same.
Airbags, Anti lock Brakes, and hopefully leg room are probably bonuses too.
Eeh.
While I agree with the sentiment, I think we’re in this situation because of the current medical climate.
-
You call an ambulance? You get charged an arm and a leg.
-
You take yourself to the hospital, you get charged an arm and a leg.
-
You get medical insurance, and you’re somehow even further behind because it’s their priority to find reasons to deny having to give you money back,
The current system does not work. As a consequence, people are attempting, however incompetently, to take their care into their own hands.
Fix why folks are resorting to this, and this should stop being an issue, or at least stop gaining traction.
Butter used to be dyed yellow. Now no one bats an eye that it’s off white.
It takes time, but new normals take over.

Episode Analysis | Star Trek: Lower Decks | 4x01 "Twovix" and 4x02 "I Have No Bones Yet I Must Flee"
I guess I’ll bite the bullet and kick off the Tuvix debate.
Tuvix isn’t the first Trek episode to involve transporter hybrids, and it wasn’t the last; but it stands out amongst the Trek fandom and cemented Janeway as a ruthless executioner.
I maintain that the only reason it’s controversial is because Tuvix was more loved than the sum of his parts.
I personally like Neelix, but it’s undeniable that he’s a contender for one of the least popular main characters in the franchise, and certainly the least favorite on Voyager.
Tim Russ is an amazing actor, but Tuvok is a very subtle character. If you pay attention to him, he’s funny and insightful. But if you don’t focus on him, you can forget he exists.
So, by replacing a despised character and a forgettable character with an outstanding character, you’re left with an audience who has no attachment to the status quo.
If, instead, “Tuvix” was built with popular characters, like Janeway, the EMH, or Seven, the audience would have no qualms about a return to the status quo—or at least not nearly to the degree we’ve seen over the years.
Skip ahead to Twovix
The transporter meat blob was dismissed as non-sentient by Tendi, but it clearly had all the intact personalities of its components. Without further analysis can we be certain of that assessment? Why not send it to The Farm™️?
If we come to the ethical conclusion that the transporter meat blob’s very existence was suffering, why restore the transporter patterns to their components rather than their Tuvix’d counterparts? The simplest answer is that they’re more trouble than they’re worth.
No one cares about the meat blob.
No one cares about T’Ilups and co.
Everyone cares about Tuvix.
We let our attachments dictate our ethics then use logic and evidence to justify them.
