ARE WE MISSING SOMETHING OF THE WEEK?
This is totally SFW. Which is an odd thing to say (and an indication of why we’re giving it a Spurious Award) considering it alleges to be an XXX parody of Star Trek: The Next Generation .

On the other hand, it’s a stunningly accurate recreation of Braga-era Trek , and looks far more entertaining than Star Trek Nemesis .
