Is that the "Wormhole X-treme" episode everyone is referring to?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Or was it 200? I thought 200 was hysterical, especially with the handling of RDA.

Yeah, 200 struck me as the writers making fun of themselves, the cast, and the entertainment business in general rather than fandom. And required a near-miraculous amount of self-awareness given the stable of writers involved.

I think it's actually Citizen Joe, or whatever it was called. With the guy from the Simpsons - the guy who was channelling O'Neil.
ETA: The ep many found mean-spirited.

I was referring to "Wormhole X-treme". Although some people much more clever than I had dubbed it "Wormhole Excrement".
200 wasn't the mean-spirited romp that 100 was. Still, I strongly suspect the writers fired up a bong and passed it around a few times while they were writing it. ;-)

"Wormhole X-treme" and "200" were very fun. But "Citizen Joe" was mean. YBMV.

Yeah, I didn't fine Wormhole or 200 mean at all. Fun romps, those two - the show making fun of itself. I can see where Citizen Joe went over into mean territory, though - fans/dom took some hits there.

I know YMMV, but what is YBMV? TIA!

Your Beagle May Vary. It's an old Buffista joke.

Citizen Joe I didn't think of as mean, but I didn't enjoy it that much. I loved 200 and quite enjoyed Wormhole X-Treme.
