* ActorAllusion: Morgan Primus has traits of every single character Creator/MajelBarrett ever played.
* ShoutOut: Early books in the series have several of these towards ''Series/SpaceCases,'' the Creator/{{Nickelodeon}} series that Peter David co-created with Bill Mumy. Notably, two of the actors have posts on the Enterprise in the first book, and the Starfleet Commander who assigned Soleta to the Excalibur shares a name and appearance with a character from the show.
** TakeThat: One of the security officers who is killed in an early book shares a name with the then-president of Nickelodeon, Herb Scanell (albeit spelled "Scannel"). Maybe a few hard feelings remained from the show's cancellation... (This also counted as BitingTheHandHumor -- Paramount and Simon & Schuster were co-owned with Nick by the [[Creator/ViacomCBS original Viacom]].)
** Ensign Janos, who was originally a Mugato before he was retconned into a genetic amalgam that looks like a Mugato, is named after Janos Prohaska, the stuntman who played the Mugato in "A Private Little War". (He also played the Horta in "The Devil in the Dark".)
** Some of the earlier books in the series refer to species called 'ordovers' who are described as slow-moving beasts of burden - they are named in tribute to John J. Ordover the editor who conceived the series and edited the first several volumes of it.
* WhatCouldHaveBeen: Peter David had an elaborate bunnies prank played on Shelby that he had to remove. [[https://www.peterdavid.net/2012/12/21/creative-differences-part-2/ The events are detailed here.]]
