In 2005, there was a note in the program book: "The group formerly known as 'The Not Ready for Paramount Players', [is] now known as The Usual Suspects."

Another collaboration was Mystery Trekkie Theater 3000.

Everyone and anyone who wants to do this turkey has my sympathy and my blessing - but try it without my permission and you might get a visit from my cousins Luigi, Carmine and Tony, They're the ones with the baseball bats. They don't play ball. Sincerely yours, Babs Lucas."

It's all about Spock's huge cock, and, if you are in the mood, it's incredibly liberating (I remember feeling that way the first time I saw it), but it's like the Eleusinian mysteries; I mean you have to go through this whole song and dance as an initiate in the Eleusinian mysteries and, at the end, the secret of life is revealed and it turns out to be one big huge man-thing! ....
