* At the end of every Star Trek review, he hands out various awards. For a full list of which episodes received which awards, check out the [[Recap/SFDebris Recap]] page. Some of these "[[MedalOfDishonor Prizes]]" include:

* The TOS movies frequently re-use [[StockFootage stock clips]] from the previous film as '[[MagicalSecurityCamera surveillance]]' footage. Chuck prefers to think Starfleet are firing up their brand-new ''Trek'' Blu-Rays.

* [[Recap/TheSimpsonsWhoShotMrBurns "Almost sexual, isn't it, Smithers?"]]

** Amazingly, Wesley Crusher, who is an actual in-universe CreatorsPet, has only got this award four times so far. [[UpToEleven On top of that]], Wesley's every single scene in "[[{{Recap/StarTrekTheNextGenerationS3E24MenageATroi}} Ménage à Troi]]" is welcomed as distraction from stupid plot. Much like "The Disease", the usually annoying character suddenly being competent is only redeeming part of episode.

** My God... even Shepard's [[ChronicPetKiller pet fish]] [[UpToEleven aren't safe]]!

*** Tom Paris gets a "Jesus of the Week" for actually managing to raise ''himself'' from the dead. Note that this happened without [[SufficientlyAdvancedAliens Alien intervention]], [[AppliedPhlebotinum advanced technology]], or TimeTravel being involved. He was dead one minute, then alive the next all by his own doing (okay, there was genetic mutation involved, but since it was simply his body's own biology that resurrected him it still counts), hence this exception.

* FanNickname[[invoked]]: Many jokes involve alternate names for things, combining personal opinion, behind-the-scenes facts, ActorAllusion, and more.
** Captain Archer is frequently called [[WesternAnimation/{{Archer}} "Duchess,"]] to show how insane he is.
** Pulaski is known as The Gorgon due to his hatred for her personality.
** Klingon "Bird Of Prey" warships (specifically the one in ''Film/StarTrekIVTheVoyageHome'') the name "Kia of Prey," because compared to the ''Enterprise'', they look about as primitive as a Kia (a type of car).
** Janeway's sanity inspired the nickname "Captain Crunch."
** He couldn't remember the name of the friendly Peacekeeper female from one episode, so he calls her by the very apt title of the episode she appeared first in: "PK Tech Girl." (PeaceKeeper Technician)
** He nicknamed one of the Andorians from "[[{{Recap/StarTrekEnterpriseS01E07TheAndorianIncident}} The Andorian Incident]]" "Andorian [[Series/WhoseLineIsItAnyway Colin Mochrie]]" after his strong resemblance.
** He named the female changeling from his ''Deep Space Nine'' reviews "Sanders" simply because, as he was committing ten weeks in a row to [=DS9=]'s final arc, and she was a prominent figure in that arc, it was much faster for him to say over and over. And because her illness gave her the complexion of [[UsefulNotes/KentuckyFriedChicken KFC fried chicken]].

* The "Off Button Hypospray" used when InstantSedation is called for (or even uncalled for), and "the [[HealingShiv Medical Phaser]]" for when the OBH isn't sufficient or fatal enough for some hapless soul.

* Due to its status as a pleasure planet, Risa is often the source of some less than savory things in his ''Star Trek'' reviews, particularly [=STDs=].

* His openings for ''[[Anime/FullMoonOSagashite Full Moon]]'' are usually some variation of how [[MoodWhiplash this is a lighthearted tale/children's cartoon about a terminally ill orphan girl and her friends, a pair of death spirits, with the occasional mention of her emotionally abusive grandmother.]]

** Variations on, "And once again our "survival expert" nearly gets everyone killed!" or "once again showing why Janeway will one day make him her ambassador" when Neelix does something incredibly undiplomatic and/or rude.

** Which ends inevitably, and gorgeously, with "(roll roll roll) ...''[[ShipsThatPassInTheNight Seven of Nine!]]''"

* Chuck has on numerous occassions commented how stupid the concept of a Moon bengi an Egg is, in reference to a Doctr Who Episode which did that vry thing.
