Discord like Q?

Anyone else think that Discord sounds a lot like, and acts sometimes like, Q from Startrek the Next Generation? When I first saw and hear Discord speak, I thought for a few minutes that both were played by the same actor. than I realized that the character Q was around maybe 23 or so yeas before the other character Discord came on the scene. But I still wonder if he is based largely on Q. Except for putting all of pony-dom on trial, while still missing with the main 6.

He is and it's the same actor. The real question is are they the same character?

In "My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic", the character Discord was based  on Q from "Star Trek". Both characters are also played by John De Lancie. :  r/TVDetails

Whoa! idn't know that! After all these years his voice sound almost the same. Might be the same, though most likely not unless FiM was owned by the same company that has the rights to The Next Generation. OR if they can super slyly imply that it is without risk of being sued.

Eh, they made a Harry Potter reference with Discord. No reason they couldn't put him in a starfleet uniform.

They did? Either I forgot about it or it completely went over my head since I'm not much of a potter head. Maybe the fact that it's the same actor with the same voice IS the Startrek reference. One big, long Startrek reference.

Ahh okay. Maybe Discord is one big Startrek reference than, they just won't go into any more detail than that because the kids, being the main target for the show, wouldn't get it most being to young to see the show. Adults though would get it.
