Trivia tidbit: Not much to say, it only lasted one season. It was just a little too cheesy. Speaking of cheese, did you know that Quark is a kind of cheese? And here you thought it was just a little itty bitty particle. :-)
I can't believe somebody else remembers this show. I remember the crew consisted of the two blondes (twins) who were always arguing which one was the clone, Gene/Jean who would switch between being a total he-man/stud and a complete poof in an instant, and Ficus, the Vegeton (he was a plant) who was the Spock parody (I remember him being tortured by being kept beneath a sun lamp by the villain.#3: jewel crown (jewel) on Oct 28, 2010

Hmm... Was this like an American version of Red Dwarf? It sounds like it...#9: Kristen Vognild (kristen) on Jun 11, 2013 [SPOILER]
Quark was 1977, Red Dwarf 1988, so if anything it was the other way around. :) Though Red Dwarf is so very English, it's hard to believe it'd be a knockoff of *anything* American.#10: besmirched tea (besmirched tea) on Jun 2, 2017 [SPOILER]
No idea how I could have missed this one back in '77 when I was totally gaga over Star Wars and into anything sci-fi, regardless of whether it was Battlestar Galactica ('78) bad, or all the way Space:1999 bad.#11: BlackCat (BlackCat) on Jun 2, 2017
I do love Red Dwarf, and the SiFy channel remake of Battlestar Galactica is probably one of the best tv series I ever watched. So say we all!
Great image. Good size, nice detail. Very doable. No guessing.
