SF Debris/Fridge

Note: These examples are Chuck's own Fridge Examples.

"Picard: And I will make them pay for what they've done!
 * Fridge Brilliance: Looking at "Our Man Bashir" with the knowledge of what is going to happen, he concludes that Bashir isn't being his fantasy self, but his real self.
 * He has a truly fascinating theory that introducing Starfleet to the Borg was a move on Q's part simply as his ultimate argument against Picard's insistence that Rousseau Was Right, given that it ultimately results in Picard's purely hate and revenge-driven actions in First Contact.

Chuck: And somewhere... Q is laughing."

"Chuck: "You know with all the Chakotay romancing in [Human Error], it's intersting to think who might actually the most compatible with Seven. And I think it's Reg Barclay.""
 * That Picard's enraged reaction to being told to destroy the Enterprise-E in First Contact is because when he loses a ship, such as the Stargazer and Enterprise-D, he takes it as a personal failure. The Borg, who have taken so much from him, who for the six years he has had to live with that personal failure, that they beat him, that he wasn't good or strong enough, will not be the ones responsible for him having to sacrifice the Enterprise-E.
 * Also note that the ship in his display case that Picard broke in his moment of rage is the Enterprise-D, fitting Chuck's theory that Picard hasn't gotten over that loss when he reacts with shock to it.
 * The reason the people in "Regeneration" turn into Borg so much slower than before is due to so many of them being assimilated by only two drones, thinning out the drones' nanoprobe supply. Though this ends up not working out when one of those same drones assimilates an entire computer mainframe in seconds.
 * He has some pretty compelling musings that the two species from the infamous "Dear Doctor" evolved into the Breen and the Pakleds.
 * He makes a good (if half-joking) argument that, despite The Worf Effect, Worf still represents an improvement in heading up security on the Enterprise-D, considering that in some first-season episodes security never seems to turn up at all!
 * He's also mentioned that Worf's gruff summaries of situations are frequently the correct ones and cut to the heart of a problem the other characters are dithering with.
 * There's also the theory that the Effect occurs because the command staff are so busy screwing around that when it comes time to fight, the enemies have had a chance to prepare for Worf.
 * That The First Doctor from Doctor Who had his first moment of Character Development when Ian Chesterton stopped him while he was considering bashing an injured man's skull in so he could escape from danger. He realized how desperate and cowardly he had been in that moment of weakness, and that a lowly Human had acted far more noble than he had been. The reason The Doctor's companions are mostly human from then on is because he realized Humans Are Special because they stop him going too far. This also nicely explains why he loses his cool so much when humans don't measure up to the standards he knows they're capable of.
 * The different actresses playing the Borg Queen are explained by the first model being replaced after her failure in First Contact, then given another chance after her successor developed a destructive obsession with Voyager.
 * Particularly weird is that Chuck makes no reference to this being his own theory, and just throws it out like it's canon.
 * Chuck goes out of his way on numerous occasions to point out that it's the opinionated guide. It's entirely possible that this time, he figured it should just be taken as a given.
 * "Before and After" features him stacking up the evidence that the Ocampa were actually genetically engineered as a race of sex slaves. Except for the body temperature, but the rest is damn uncanny.
 * Pointing out that each and every bad Trek film is heralded as bad when the main characters sing.
 * In "Ship in a Bottle," Moriarty erroneously refers to Sir Arthur Conan Doyle as an Englishman because he was unhappy with Doyle for writing him as a villain.
 * In his TNG Look-back at Reg Barclay, he points out that he and Seven are very similiar personality wise, both like self-aware holograms, are introverts, brilliant problem solvers and both experienced (while extremely different) a form of higher conciousness integrated with technology. Leading Chuck to Crowning Moment of Heartwarming Fridge Brilliance.


 * Fridge Horror: Voyager apparently records the brainwaves of all its crew members all the time.
 * In "Meld" we find out that apparently its just so easy to turn off parts of someone's brain...
 * His review of "Emissary" points out the true horror of the battle of Wolf 359, only glimpsed briefly in "The Best of Both Worlds" left people such as Ben Sisko deeply affected having lost love ones to the Borg.
 * The Alternate Character Interpretation of Janeway as a psychotic Magnificent Bastard is so scarily accurate that it makes you reflect on everything you saw her do on Voyager... and realize that he's pretty much spot on about her.
 * Most especially the instances where Chuck's version of Janeway is less extreme or psychotic than the cannon Janeway, such as in the the one-off My way or Janeway segment.
 * Fridge Logic: The episodes Chuck reviews are so drenched in this trope, that he tends to emphasize when it's NOT being done.
