Yes. Yes it is.

    Reminds me of Garrett Wang. He was introducing a Star Trek panel, a TNG panel if I remember correctly, and was talking to the audience a bit about his relationship with Star Trek. Said he watched it growing up but in his teenage years it phased out. Then he heard of TNG and turned it on. First episode? Code of Honor and he said "Okay. No thanks." Cut to a few years later and he sees TNG is on. Why not check it out, can't be as bad as it was before? It's Code of Honor again. Cut again to a couple years after that. He has an audition for Voyager coming up and he decides to watch some Star Trek for reference. Finds it on a channel and starts watching it. Code of Honor.

    He ended the story by saying he credits Code of Honor for getting him the job because if he saw any other episode he'd be too much of a fanboy.

      Ok yeah that one definitely wasn't great. I usually don't skip it though just because the utterly backwards logic in it is pretty funny.

    Evidence that the musical episode is only like the seventh goofiest premise in Star Trek. And I'm not even counting anything from Lower Decks.

    Isn't it funny that the events of modern day are hundreds of years past for the members of Starfleet, yet all of their cultural references and entertainment options revolve around our period?

      Haha, and sometimes they even try to throw in some made up one to address that, and it sounds goofy.
