Rod Roddenberry says he has no idea what his late dad, who launched Star Trek 55 years ago last month, thought of the SNL sketch. "Dad
passed away when I was 17," he says. "I was a young, immature kid who did not have those kinds of conversations with him." But Rod
Roddenberry says he personally hated the 1986 SNL sketch set at a Star Trek convention. "I never really appreciated that skit because I
think it was demeaning to the fans," Roddenberry, who is a producer on several Star Trek projects, tells The Hollywood reporter. "I think
it was disrespectful, especially for a character who was an open-minded, intelligent leader." He adds: But I don't condemn it in any way.
It's Saturday Night Live, and it's all fun."

Its pathetic that Gene Roddenberrys son is this desperate for attention
and this is the best he can come up with to get his name mentioned on Star Treks birthday.

That's exactly the right word. Pathetic.
My 13yo ass was firmly planted on the living room rug for that Salt
Vampire episode. My mother complained I should have been doing
homework. (It would not be the last time.) BTW Star Trek is still
here and that high school is off in limbo somewhere.
I remain sincerely grateful to anyone who had anything to do with
making the show. It got me through some awful times back then.

Season 3 of ST:TOS was pretty awful and I've heard Freiburger had a LOT
to do with that.

Hmm. Season 3 includes:
Elan of Troyius
The Enterprise Incident
The Tholian Web
all of which were pretty good, and superior to Season 2 episodes such as (ughhhhh!) The Omega Glory.
Of course, Season 3 also included Spock’s Brain, which pulls down the average considerably.
There’s no doubt that Season 2 (despite The Omega Glory) was the best season, but a case can be made for saying that Season 3 was second best.
