- In 1975 Bobby Pickett (known for the 1962 hit song “Monster Mash”) recorded a novelty spoof on Star Trek called "Star Drek" with Peter Ferrara, which was played on Dr. Demento's radio show for many years. (In 1992 'misterdavep' added this video using two VHS VCRs, an old cassette tape recording from the Doctor Demento show, and a handful of Star Trek episodes recorded off the air.) Because the SNL John Belushi parody aired in 1976, "Star Drek" may be the first ST spoof ever made.
That has lived rent free in my brain since the 1970s.
3:18 A schwartz joke BEFORE spaceballs!? amazing!
spaceballs was 1986 bro
I have this on cassette from Dr. Demento. To this day I say ‘Ain’t I something!?” At opportune times. Especially at work! Great bit. Thank you for creating a video for it!
To this day, I always say "Yeesss Captain Jeerrrk."
Have quoted the different characters' lines so many times over the years - Dr. Demento aired on WNOE-FM New Orleans in the 70's long before it went country, and I eventually worked at WNOE-AM. Still might have some cassette copies somewhere with my airchecks, etc. Wanted to listen to the Dr. Demento KraZiness all week long in high school! "We're takin' a shellackin' out here, Cap'n." - I still use this one every time we have a hurricane.
LOL!
I remember this episode on Dr. Demento!
Funny af when you add in real Star Trek footage!
Even if the lips don't sync, still so funny!
Thanks for this, brings back memories!

Thanks for puting this together. I remember when I first heard it Paramount was still working on the first Star Trek movie, and Dr. Dimento said something about how much it would cost Paramount to make a movie about this one. By the way I still say "I'm a doctor, not a script writer" when I see Dr.McCoy on Star Trek.
Holy crap. Talk about a flashback. When I was a kid I remember listening to this Star Trek spoof on my little clock radio in my bedroom at night on the Dr. Demento Show back in the mid-70's.
"Captain Jerk"
"Lieutenant Snot"
"Mr. Schlock"
"Mr. Lulu"
"Lieutenant Manura"
Man, haven't heard this since like 1983 or something. For the longest time, the "yyYYYYES, Captain Jerk" and "I'm Fine, how are you" quotes stuck with me. Nice hearing them again. X D
I still have the Rhino LP that included this wonder. Classic!
Yes.....Captain JERK !
Great memories of this !
I just watched a TH-cam video that just showed the 45 record spinning on a turntable. This is even better.
Not bad editing job.
I remember this from Demento. Nice to see it 'acted' out.
🖖
Thank you! "Star Drek" just popped into my head after laying dormant for what? 40+ years? Really appreciate you uploading this! 😀
Thanx for bringing back the Dr . Demento days. I've got tons on cassette but haven't ventured there lately.
I just found the cassette I used to tape this off the radio forty years ago. First time I saw this video attached to it-pretty cool.
I heard the audio for this on the Dr. Demento show in the 90s. I thought I would never hear it again!
Brilliant! Your hard work shows!
Before Dr. Demento, there was Dial-a-Joke and that's where I first heard this! That was about 1970.
used to hide under the covers with my walkman listening to this on doctor d, thank you so much for sharing... nice video sync too :)
"2 VHS VCRs and an old cassette tape" you just described my teen years lol
Me too except you left out hand lotion, a playboy from 1983, and a box of tissues.
Did anyone else catch the fact that Uhura's last name is Manura?
An old friend introduced me to Dr. Dimento in the early 80's. He had it on reel to reel.
Excellent, well done matching the clips to the sound track.
The first time I heard this was on Frank Heller's Madman Matinee on WBAi in New York from 1975.

I remember hearing this on dr d back in the 70’s.
I still use “negative space time wedgie” and other things from this in conversation. It’s brilliant.
Nice job! I too used to listen to this on Dr. Demento. Brings back memories. Bobby Picket also did a great impression of Boris Karloff on his top 10 hit, Monster Mash ;-)
I am still looking for the one that there is a party going on. People are getting drunk. Spock is called Smock. Scotty is Snotty. The phone lines are busy. And the operated says the phone line is woozy.
Lol
I can't remember the specifics of this one but I think the "party" (actually, it's an orgy) is taking place in Engineering. Mr. Scott is actually called Lt. Limey and he speaks with a stereotypical Beatles Liverpool accent. The ship is getting more and more off course much to Kirk's bewilderment, and that seems to be an essential part of whatever plotline there is.

This is so much better than just merely listening to it on Dr Demento! The stopwatch scene had me dying!
I was in 10th grade in high school, living in the hinterlands of Washington state and listening to the Dr. Demento show Sunday nights on a staticky FM station broadcasting out of distant Seattle...it might have been KOL-FM. Catching this sort of stuff, when Top-40 ruled the AM band and way before FM went mainstream, was like going out of the way to watch Monty Python on PBS: You had to have a certain eclectic sense of humor to find and appreciate it which I guess most teenagers didn't have. I remember the next day in Band laughing with about the only other student in my Class-B school (average class size about 20 to 25 students) who knew who Dr. Demento was, over the "What's not there, Mr. Snot?" bits. (Another lost radio jewel of that era was the National Lampoon Comedy Hour.)
It was on Sundays on KISW FM 100. That's probably what you were listening to.
@@kevinwilson9589 You're probably right! Thanks!
Sweet! Even if the source clips aren't great quality, the editing work is actually pretty good! As I was born only a year before this dropped, I listened to this on the Dr. Demento show when it was in syndication in the late 1980s. Still nostalgic memories galore!
I remember this from Dr. Demento in the 1970's.
I've been looking for this one for a long time.
Doctor Demento play this. Loved.
Damn, this wasn't the one I was looking for. I totally remember this one too, .but Dr Demento had another Trek spoof where they encounter a huge "space turkey" which they assume is about to attack the Enterprise and it says "I am an angel of the Lord-" right before they zap it with phasers.
oh I love that you put vid clips to it! it's perfect haha Dr Demento was place to be on Sunday nights
Good work!
Snot here, Captain Jerk
What's not there, Snotty? LOL
I think it was edited a little bit recently...the line "...need a ride, sailor" is missing when bleach-blonde in tan covertible shows up...interesting.
Me too. I also always say " Yeeess Captain Jeerrk".
This whole thing was hilAAAAAARIOUS lmaoarofl !!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Captain Jerk, Snotty, Mr. Schlock and Lt. Manura.
I can never make out what Lt Menura says. It’s something like “ the so and sos said we took a shellacking out here.” The lyrics I looked up say, “I dunno but it looks like we took a shellacking…”, but I think that’s wrong. Any ideas?
The keyboard sounds. Kentucky Fried Chicken the movie nod? :D
oh yeah. my friend had a copy of this back in early 70s? it was on an LP album with some other things as I recall. Remember it well. Blonde in a red convertile, Snott here, what's not her?
Love it!
This reminds me of Spaceballs.
"To boldly go where everyone has gone before!" It's just like what's happening now. 👽
To Boldy Go into a Warped Mind
4:08: you can always tell tourists...
Any idea what Lt. Manura is saying? Something like "all of our gear is crapping out here"?
From the lyrics:
JERK: Damage report! Lieutenant Manura?
MANURA: I dunno, but I say we took a shellackin' out here!
After The Monster Mash, this was dreadful, but kind of funny, in certain spots, as a big fan of STAR TREK, I was surprised just a bit of how it was put together
What happened to the original upload? This videos pretty new
Dang, Schlock can move!
“Planet Schwartz”? Merchandising! 🤑
"Where everyone's gone before"... must be referring to my ex
I'm pretty sure Captain Kirk never said "Well, ain't I something!"
But he should have.
which star trek episodes were used? also fun fact this was recorded by the same guy who did monster mash
Heyt this is great anyway u could redo it with digitally remastered version of star trek because it would look and sound better with todays tech
lol!
Trekkies- wrong-trekkers- right!😅
