That's a good thing.
VERY SHORT TREKS...

Yes.
He's a Brexiteer and opposes everything with a wiff of wOkEiSm.
I can't find reference but I think he was one of those old-timey people who misunderstand freedom of speech.
Well. I'll be.
It wasn't the WKRP tie-in I was hoping for.You are a prophet!
I just watched episode 3 “Worst Contact”
What the fuck was that?

"Worst Contact" was ok, but boogers, including animated boogers, activate my gag reflex. I won't be watching that one again.
The first one, "Skin a Cat", could be a reference to people being "too sensitive", but I took it as aliens are often depicted as "like a ___" and that we would have to be more thoughtful in our speech. But then it got absurd with people who look like underpants and screws. I crack up at that one not for the jokes per se, but the Knickersonian's "HOW DARE YOU?!" was so well delivered, and she looks so ridiculous. I hope the Knickersonians appear in canon some day.

This ...
GROSS!
I wouldn't eat fresh fish, with the eyes still attached.
I thought this skewered the pompousness of early TNG pretty well. Gates' delivery was terrific.
This is official ST?!?
At first glance of the first one, I thought it was some high-budget fan production that Paramount would probably suppress by the end of the month.
Bad taste: the final frontier!
(And by the way, Cleese has always been my favorite Python.)

Are we counting "Director" for SNW?

I thought this one was more "engrossing" than funny, but I was never bored. And as a corporate employee, I can tell you that people bringing leftover fish to the office IS an issue. It's not just the microwave, either, although that's a big part of it. Somebody on a prior shift recently enjoyed their leftover lobster at work, and the resulting stench from a wastebasket was so bad, I had to bag it up and carry it out to a dumpster myself. It's wildly inconsiderate to coworkers.
You haven't experienced the ultimate in gross microwaved food till you've worked on a hospital Patient Care Unit and have had to deal with not only fellow employees smelly cooked foods, but also the never ending assortment of entrées brought in by family members for picky patients.
Eating Fish Eyeballs
Some of the Klingon foods used in ST:TNG was just food the production staff would find in the Chinese Super Market.
"WORST CONTACT"... it was okay. There were some funny moments, but I think it's definitely the least of the three.
The homage to errors continues... 'Bill', 'Commanding Officer Riker', 'Stardate 2252'.
Frakes... one more show under his belt. (Though I don't really count this as a show for similar reasons why I don't count SHORT TREKS.)
I'm pretty sure many people won't like this one simply because it is a bit gross.
