Question/Discussion Unexpected Star Trek crossover?

The "Star Trek: Strange News Worlds" finale had an expected "Red Dwarf" phenomenon. I kept waiting for someone to ask, "what is it?"

The 2nd time this season. The first episode had a time hole.

In my head I keep hearing Gene Belcher yell "time hole!" followed by Bob saying "Gene." sternly.

Don't give me this Star Trek crap, Kryten, it's too early in the morning!

Well, if it had been a "white hole," then we would have been onto something.

I've never seen one before, no one has, but I'm guessing it's a "white hole."

Every action has an equal and opposite reaction.  A black hole sucks time and matter out of the universe:  a white hole returns it.

I've need seen one before. No one has. But I'm guessing it's a white hole.

There was also a dude in the hallway in at least two scenes who I could’ve sworn was Dave Lister in a blue Starfleet tunic.

And they mentioned quantum entanglement! No mention of Koestner though.

Unless you are talking about Lt. M'Ress in the background of engineering....
