The only real similarity between the episodes is that they have the same name. The South Park episode does feature a kid in a Star Trek red shirt, who gets killed. "Red shirts", as they are known in the Trek universe, are famous for getting killed. |

In the
South Park episode, a movie producer grabs Mr. Hankey and says, "I have

At the end of the episode, Garrison says, "Second star to the right, and straight on 'til morning." This is what Kirk said at the end of the sixth Star Trek movie.

The scene with Kyle and Rebecca, the home-schooled girl, in her father's garden is very similar to the scene with Kirk and Shahna in the ancient city of the Providers.

Park Episode: The Wacky Molestation Adventure Star Trek Reference: Miri |
Children tauntingly saying "yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah" is a common theme in both episodes. Also, a lot of people think that "the Before Time" was taken from the movie "Children of the Corn". I have no idea why, since it wasn't even mentioned in that movie, although there are other references to the movie. It was taken from the Trek episode "Miri". |
