Missed that one. Only one I remember is the Saturday Night Live skit with Belushi as Captain Kirk. (And of course the original Mad Magazine satire done when the original series was first aired.) FT

TWENTY MORE REASONS KIRK IS THE MAN... 01. Kirk would never sing to children in a crisis. 02. Kirk can almost drive a stick shift. 03. Kirk made do with obviously low performance technology. 04. Kirk never pretends to be a barber in order to gain a tactical advantage. 05. Kirk looks good with a ripped shirt. 06. Kirk's first officer NEVER tells him to stay on the bridge. 07. Kirk never leaves the room to bawl somebody out. 08. Kirk doesn't rely on the wisdom of some dumb old janitor to get him out of intergalactic scrapes. 09. Kirk never once said "Abandon ship! All hands abandon ship!" 10. Kirk never got "dumped" by a woman for an intergalactic busy body named after a letter of the alphabet. 11. Picard never met Joan Collins. 12. Kirk knows how to deal with peace-loving hippy goofs. 13. Kirk barely asks for suggestions. And if he does, he only asks Spock. 14. One Word: Fisticuffs. 15. You can never lock up Kirk for very long. 16. Kirk plays god with lesser cultures, and then exploits them for resources. 17. Kirk's son would never drop out to become a musician. 18. Picard allows cats on board, while Kirk beams away even really cute things, like Tribbles. 19. Kirk would never touch SYNTHAHOL. 20. Kirk traveled through The Great Barrier, met God, and wasn't even impressed.
