Line 35:
* ''[[Star Trek: The Next Generation]]'' and afterwards: Klingon [[Opera]]. (And [[Shakespeare]], best appreciated [[In the Original Klingon]].)
* ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'''s Ferengi are the mercantile traders of the galaxy, so naturally they come stocked with holonovels like "Vulcan Love Slave" and other gems of the 24th-Century entertainment complex. Their children also collect action figures presumably based on a popular culture franchise, Marauder Mo (TM).
** Klingons seem to have their version of creole music, as performed by the Klingon chef in the episode "Playing God".
** Also in ''[[Star Trek: Deep Space Nine]]'', Cardassian "enigma tales" (detective stories) get mentioned a couple of times.
*** One episode also features Bashir and Garak having a debate about the virtues of the Cardassian "repetitive epic", a type of story in which the essential plot is repeated several times over [[An Aesop|in order to drive home a point]]. In this case, service to the state above the self, which becomes something of a theme with ''both'' characters as the show goes on.
