Previously on…: Played with in "The Man From Syracuse". The narrator simply says, "Previously on Star Trek", omitting the word "Excelsior". Clips are then played from various episodes over the first three seasons of TNG, relating to the Borg and the neural parasites.

comment
Un-Installment: Inverted with "Sunset", which is presented as the series finale of Star Trek: Anbar, which doesn't actually exist IRL, though many listeners were fooled because the premise of a series finale to a nonexistent series was played completely straight. The production team thought that calling it "Episode 12 of Season 54" would be enough to convince everyone their legs were being pulled, but was subsequently delighted to learn that it wasn't.

Fix Fic: For much of early Star Trek: The Next Generation. Remember those alien parasites from Season 1 that were never seen again? Remember when the Borg weren't interested in assimilating folks, just their technology? Turns out the only reason one of these threats hasn't steamrolled the Federation yet is because they're too busy fighting each other.

Shout-Out: Loads of them. To name a few: "Lords of Kobol" is one of Dovan's favorite exclamations. More than once, Lohrok has remarked on how handy a sonic screwdriver would be. When Neeva detects derelict Borg cubes in the Hesperus sector, guess her response when Dovan asks many of them there are. Go on, guess. Apparently the Trill version of Jesus is somebody called the Great Prophet Zarquon.

The Other Darrin: Lorhrok, in the middle of the first season, with a big two-minute announcement at the top of the episode. Admiral Parker, in the middle of the second season, with a 20-second announcement at the top of the episode. Admiral Parker again in the middle of the third season, with no announcement at all (but it's okay, because it's the original actor returning to the part after his replacement went pro).
