Background[]
As many of the characters in the family tree list were references to other media, this name and the others associated were references to the M*A*S*H franchise, in particular the character Sherman Potter from the television series of the same name. This character and the others associated with him were present in the original version of the episode, and were barely clear enough to read in the original broadcast. When TNG was remastered, a new series of names were digitally inserted because of the increased visibility of onscreen text in HD.
