Mike is normally depressed and miserable, but during these Star Trek trivia things he turns into an exuberant kid in a candy store. It would seem that nothing heals the soul quite like schooling Rich Evans on Star Trek trivia.

I actively dislike TNG and I’m needing to take a breather here in the comments from that. I can so easily picture Jay eating a hotdog and spilling condiments all over himself, and these crazy frauds could do anything after liquifying all those dinky star wars toys (which was funny but now it’s MY franchise and MY only liked character). Why could they have not bought a Geordi uniform or something instead 😢 -anyways next time they should dress him in a Risa outfit and say it’s for the show.
This series just feels like Mike shouting "NO, best to 3!" and once he's taken more wins then Rich, he'll immediately stop wanting to do these. This is the kind of pettiness I subscribe for.
Props to Mike for combing through all the hours of star trek to find the relevant clips even for jokes and reaction scenes as opposed to just the trivia questions. That probably took the most time to edit and at that point you're doing it for the love of the craft.
Between this episode and the last one, Mike has been doing nothing but watching all the TNG seasons over and over again on repeat to prepare for this rematch.
@@mdmn-ARCA I kept waiting for one of his "well it wasn't X episode, which was about Y..." blatherings to end up being the answer for the very next questions.
In 1987, my (now) ex-boyfriend attended the Trekkie convention in Portland, Oregon, at a time when TNG had been on the air for half a season. He was in a conference room with a bunch of people where William Shatner was leading a Q&A session, and had been bad-mouthing the new series, saying that it would not be renewed and of course elevating TOS as the only real Trek, even going so far as to criticize the new uniforms. My ex, who was 16 years old at the time and standing at the back of the room, raised his hand and was called on by Shatner, and asked the question "Do you think you could even fit into a TNG uniform?". He said that all he heard were the sounds of gasps as every single head in the room turned around to stare at him while Shatner turned beat red in the face. I thought that story might bear some relevance to this episode and get a few chuckles. Great show guys, Jay's "singing in a musical" answer had me ROFLing. ;)
Can't even imagine any show getting to 178 episodes at a rate of 10-12 episodes a season. Eventually, if you want lengthy serials you'll have to watch Zack Snyder movie trailers spliced together into a plot he's thinking of, using someone else's brain
I never watched any Star Trek whatsoever but watched all the RLM Episodes about Star Trek. My Mother used to watch Star Trek Next Generation while she ironed washed Clothes when i was a Kid in the early 1990s here in Germany, of course dubbed in German as was the Norm and still is. So me watching all those RLM Episodes about Star Trek The Next Generation made me talk to my Mom randomly about Star Trek The Next Generation, asking her what her fav Episode was, why she liked it so much that it became a "Comfort Watch" for her etc. So Thanks for that RLM!
If they actually do team trivia where Mike and Rich team up, Jay has the opportunity to bring this story full circle by having William Shatner as his partner.
Would listen to them all. Mike's memory of TNG is astonishing. I kinda wish he liked DS9 as much, even MORE trek content. Regardless. Always fun to revisit TNG with Red Letter Media.
Rich's magnanimity truly knows no bounds! To throw the game just so that his intellectually challenged friend Mike could get a fleeting taste (even if undeserved) at victory! Truly we should all hope to be as kind and noble as Rich!
Nothing against the Comment but before i checked the Comment Secitions i immediately thought "The most upvoted Comment will be about how RLM managed to have a Celebrity Appearance of Rich Evans" and the Fact that i was right made me think we should get more creative, as i believe Rich mentioned and made Fun of in some Video Years ago
@@Domus_Maximus Yeah its weird. I still smirk at these Comments but ath the same Time im conflicted because Rich Evans made Fun of the RLM Community posting the same old Jokes since like 2015 and how we should get more creative.
I could EASILY spend hours just listening to Mike and Rich talk about Star Trek. Whether it's the arm chair format, or trivia games. Please keep it coming! No matter the format.
I recken this trivia and the last I got the 'right' answer to about a third of them and about half of them got the 'Ooooo, I know the episode and can tell you what happens but I'm fucked if I can remember the name of the Nebula it took place in'
This is so freaky. Literally watched a futurama compilation that featured that joke a couple of vids before rewatching this one. Are you in my brain? Are you the algorithm?
The episode where Troi loses her magical powers is called "The Loss," and everyone has to browbeat and manipulate her into doing her job. Riker calls her imperious, and Guinan says she's considering applying to take her job once Troi resigns. Which is wild, since her advice is always just obvious stuff: he's lying, they're afraid, the giant organic ship is happy. I think the better question is, how do their games of poker work? Troi can tell when someone's bluffing, Data and Geordi can identify every card from the back, but Riker still wins every time. Except... Riker is in charge of personnel... oh......
All of them had the ability to cheat, yeah, and they didn't because they were friends. That's what true friends do. Any of your friends has the ability to woe and do it with your girl but they don't.
Mike “Depressurise the cargo bay by opening the doors so that they could suck out all the plasma gas; the hot burning plasma fire that was happening” Jay “ you were very close. It was; singing in a musical” Rich Evans …. * prolonged Rich Evans laugh*
i was expecting "blown out into space, not sucked, Mike!" - would have been a classic Mike correction of Rich, so Rich correcting him in his style would have been epic...
Future Imperfect is one of my favourite episodes, the part when Riker gets so mad at how poorly imitated his friends are is the greatest thing ever. "You're incapable of that level of incompetence!"
Probably the only time he came close to Mike's BMI for _Richtration_ Honestly, I don't know why he keeps screaming the words "Rich" and "frustration" at intermittently random times when he can ship those 2 and save a lot of time editing his mind.
For the 10th episode they will play a highly advanced video game from 1980 with discs and funnels and a pen flashlight in the eyes. Each right answer results in another heroin shot.
Jay is the shortest, youngest and coolest w his long hair and beardy face = Richard Hammond Mike is always shaved, tallest, gets bleeped the most and is the most controversial = Jeremy Clarkson Rich is in between in terms of height, the handy one who builds things PROPERLY, the one with the facts = James May
Am I alone in thinking that ever since he lost round one Mike did a Rocky-like training session to reclaim his honor? In my mind's eye I can see a training montage of Mike in a gray training suit watching episode after episode of TNG while downing energy drinks set to the Rocky theme. I doubt he did any running, but I could see him hit a punching bag with a photo of Jay and Rich on it.
Everytime they cut to Rich, that warm "oh look, he's getting there all by himself" expression is just so damn uplifting. It exudes succor and unyielding, undeniable love. Hat off to Sir Richard Evans for continuously supporting his depressed, alcoholic friend when no one else will.
It's like when you have a loved one deep in the throes of Alzheimer's or dementia, and you see their real self come out when they're listening to a musical piece that they loved, or getting back into an old hobby... That's the look in Rich's eyes.
You can really tell the difference between the screen used costume and the pair of pajamas that Rich Evans is wearing. That uniform really fits Jay quite well. How surprising.
This entire trivia contest makes so much more sense now, knowing that Mike had been rewatching the entire series looking for flaws for the Plinkett mistakes video.
Thank you, Mr. Krebs Gorlon, for that enlightening description to go with this entertaining "village idiot" content. My rotting soul craves more of it.
"We are en route to Earth where it will be my pleasant duty to deliver this year's commencement address at Starfleet Academy". Man, I miss Star Trek. You'd never hear a line like that in modern day Grim-Trek.
I realized one of the charms is the short clips of TNG in reaction to Mike and Rich make it feel like one of those branded pinball games with the small video screens that reacted to what you did on the table.
@@pogglywoggly3292 ah yes, you’re right! I guess I was thinking of them doing a Twin Peaks episode between Jay and Josh (where both contestants would actually know the answers lol). Maybe they could expand it to just be a ‘David Lynch Trivia’ episode?
rich's problem is his buzzer technique. notice that mike is so salty about his previous embarrassing loss that his hand overs just over the buzzer while rich keeps his at the side while jay reads the question
Really, it's the host's fault. He continues reading the question even as the buzzer is pressed. Krebs Gorlon never should've accepted this lack of quality.
I have a friend that once looked at an envelope that had the letters RLM written on it, and he said these people are jerks in real life and that the game show is fake!
It's beautiful to see Jay wearing the outfit of his favorite actor from TNG. I hear Jay even named his cat after Data's. Or maybe it was H.P. Lovecraft's.
@@Thanatos2k He can't murder n-wordman the cat. He defends us from the things that lurk in the dark; Jay doesn't have the power level to take him down.

The good news is yes, there are 10 parts total.
The bad news is that the 10 is in binary.
The next few need to be about discovery and that 3d cartoon they made. Mike and Rich stand there in complete silence
Fingers crossed for 20 once Rich wins the first 10 rounds
The best parts are when they don't know the answer but will recap the entire rest of the episode as a way of maintaining their honor.
As any self loathing super fan would lol
Only Mike does that.
You wouldn't?!
Each episode is almost like diving into a Lit class: you state the plot, setting and characters involved. It's mighty impressive that they can narrow down the episode titles correlating with a specific season or moment

I'm just going to have to accept this as the answer because I could only definitively see Rich's name.

Hahaha! I found it particularly amusing when he mispronounced "day-tuh" (Data) as "dat-tuh"

For the 10th episode they will fight with spiked balls on their hands for the right to be married by Jay
For the 10th episode they will play a highly advanced video game from 1980 with discs and funnels and a pen flashlight in the eyes.
Each right answer results in another heroin shot.
Jay is the shortest, youngest and coolest w his long hair and beardy face = Richard Hammond
Mike is always shaved, tallest, gets bleeped the most and is the most controversial = Jeremy Clarkson
Rich is in between in terms of height, the handy one who builds things PROPERLY, the one with the facts = James May
It's nice that the Hospice let's them play these games together. Keeps their minds sharp!
I love how ridiculously competitive Mike is.
It raises the stakes.
The Troi nitpicks were old Plinkett trying to claw his way out.
So by Plinkett, you mean all of us. That tracks beautifully, actually
You know Mike binged the whole series after Part 1.
100% 😂
Am I alone in thinking that ever since he lost round one Mike did a Rocky-like training session to reclaim his honor? In my mind's eye I can see a training montage of Mike in a gray training suit watching episode after episode of TNG while downing energy drinks set to the Rocky theme. I doubt he did any running, but I could see him hit a punching bag with a photo of Jay and Rich on it.
Or he read the questions when no one was around ? You go ahead guys, I'm just going to lock up...now where is that game !
im picturing an anbo-jyutsu outfit instead
Carl Weathers died while training him.
35:20 Rich smiling as Mike is deep in describing the random episode is an oddly heartwarming
Everytime they cut to Rich, that warm "oh look, he's getting there all by himself" expression is just so damn uplifting. It exudes succor and unyielding, undeniable love.
Hat off to Sir Richard Evans for continuously supporting his depressed, alcoholic friend when no one else will.
It's like when you have a loved one deep in the throes of Alzheimer's or dementia, and you see their real self come out when they're listening to a musical piece that they loved, or getting back into an old hobby... That's the look in Rich's eyes.
It's so wholesome to see the guys be friends. I immediately unsubbed.
I've never seen a single episode of Star Trek, and yet I will happily watch this series of trivia off's till the end of time.
The funny part is that it doesn't matter. This is super obscure BS. I've seen every episode and would have gotten like 1 question right.
Go watch it, you hack.
I've watched them over and over, and I have no idea what they're talking about with these questions.
Genuinely these dumb trivia showdowns are some of my favorite things
I'm still impatiently waiting for Part 3 of 10! Let's see what's out there ----------- engage!
Jay fitting in that Next Generation uniform makes me realize Data was much shorter than I thought.
You can really tell the difference between the screen used costume and the pair of pajamas that Rich Evans is wearing. That uniform really fits Jay quite well. How surprising.
Jay is a fully functional android, so of course it fits.
@@530skeptic Oh, no shit? Well yeah, that makes sense.
These are too good
nice
Nice
NICE
*NICE*
I'm so excited to see how this goes terribly wrong
I recognized Jay’s uniform immediately, because I also have no life.
LIfe is for winners and we ain't no winners.
Overrated board game (and creepy box art too)
This entire trivia contest makes so much more sense now, knowing that Mike had been rewatching the entire series looking for flaws for the Plinkett mistakes video.
These trivia episodes are the best Trek content since 2005.
Thank you, Mr. Krebs Gorlon, for that enlightening description to go with this entertaining "village idiot" content. My rotting soul craves more of it.
"We are en route to Earth where it will be my pleasant duty to deliver this year's commencement address at Starfleet Academy".
Man, I miss Star Trek. You'd never hear a line like that in modern day Grim-Trek.
When Rich says, “This is all getting cut,” and Mike is editing, you know it’s all staying in.
I know the "part 2 of 10" is probably a joke, but don't threaten me with a good time, I'm here for it.
Jay is going for the Kurt Russel in The Thing look with his hair and beard.
Is Jay preparing for the lead role in the next Samurai Cop?
Jay was in this episode? I thought it was Mike, Rich, and a librarian.
I hope they actually do all 10.
It says, "Rich Evans will never ever be the true champion of Star Trek trivia."
Finally!!
i was thinking like..... rich evans owes mike something something, but yeah, this makes sense.
Thank you!
Honestly Mike and RIch discussing TNG is damn entertaining. I'd watch a series on that and just seeing them happy with some form of entertainment.
They have 4 videos of talking about their favorite eps and 1 talking about how shit season 1 is, great stuff
Jeopardy would be improved by 1000% if the contestants pushed the podiums over at the end of each episode 😂
And drank heavily during filming.
Jeopardy! + Pro wrestling = Win
Also, if all the questions were about Star Tracks and they dressed in silly uniforms... wait... never mind.
Jeopardy is fun until the host spends about 5 minutes talking to a complete stranger trying to make me give a shit about some random nobody.
I realized one of the charms is the short clips of TNG in reaction to Mike and Rich make it feel like one of those branded pinball games with the small video screens that reacted to what you did on the table.
Jay going for the respectable aging child actor look.
His time with Mr. McCulkin was well spent
Mike pettiness in these trivia shows is great. I bet this has been happening since highschool for these two.
holy shit these keep getting better every time I watch them...
This is the most excited I've been for a Star Trek show since Voyager. Oh God, I just realized I'm not even joking.
Someone doesn't have the Faith of the Heart.
Hey, Enterprise was not that bad, especially season 4
@@pedrolucan4006 No, it wasn't, but I didn't really get excited for it most of the time. Nothing against it.
The first 5 min of this already entertain me more than any startrek of the last decade.
I would watch 1,000 hours of this
21:31 we all get hypnotized by Rich's deep blue eyes from time to time, no need to get embarrassed
Jay and Josh should absolutely do a Twin Peaks Trivia episode one of these days.
Didnt they do one already?
I agree!
that would give me a good excuse to watch twin peaks again.
Mike vs. Jay: Trivia Showdown Rematch is the David lynch "trivia" episode, which others may be referring/referencing (twin peaks)
@@pogglywoggly3292 ah yes, you’re right! I guess I was thinking of them doing a Twin Peaks episode between Jay and Josh (where both contestants would actually know the answers lol). Maybe they could expand it to just be a ‘David Lynch Trivia’ episode?
rich's problem is his buzzer technique. notice that mike is so salty about his previous embarrassing loss that his hand overs just over the buzzer while rich keeps his at the side while jay reads the question
Really, it's the host's fault. He continues reading the question even as the buzzer is pressed. Krebs Gorlon never should've accepted this lack of quality.
I have a friend that once looked at an envelope that had the letters RLM written on it, and he said these people are jerks in real life and that the game show is fake!
At this point, I'm convinced Mike and Rich could actually serve as functional Star Fleet crew if any of this was real or mattered.
You mean if they got caught in a Galaxy Quest scenario?
What do you mean it doesn't matter?
Ha! I knew the internet was fake
It's beautiful to see Jay wearing the outfit of his favorite actor from TNG.
I hear Jay even named his cat after Data's. Or maybe it was H.P. Lovecraft's.
Yeah but did you hear what Jay did to those cats??
@@Thanatos2kGood night sweet cats
@@Thanatos2k He can't murder n-wordman the cat. He defends us from the things that lurk in the dark; Jay doesn't have the power level to take him down.
@@Thanatos2k Couldn't be worse than what James Corden did.
