From my favorite movies..

A lot of perfectly good film show their cards early, establish a unique premise and let the audience explore a topic at a leisurely pace, without much in terms of surprise. this film is not one of those films.

A terrific literary drama and character piece that shows how the process of creating art can be seen differently by those doing it and those looking at it from the outside.

Lasting only Six episodes, this is another attempt at doing SF-Comedy. It has some funny ideas, like the cloned twins and hermaphrodite crewman, but altogether, it just isn't that funny.

I also remember watching it on TV when i was a kid and enjoying it. I recently had the chance to view about 5 of the few episodes of this show that were ever made and though it was a lot of fun to see it again, i'm not so convinced it would do so well thru a DVD release.The humor is rather dated, of course, but the show also suffers from a huge lack of direction in some cases. Most of the episodes i watched had a feeling of being pieced together rather hap-hazard.Would be interesting to see what a network could do with the show and premise if they decided to bring it back to a television series. Chances are very good that if one of the three networks did give it a go .... they would completely mess it up though. It would probably be best served on a pay channel. HBO could use more comedy series, thats for sure.

I was an adult when this show came out. I changed my whole schedule on Friday evening so I could see the show, and then the network would change their scheduling. My niece, who was in grade school, would act out female characters in the show. It had a great, great following, and I think the network had rocks in their head to discontinue the show. As more and more space themed TV shows came back after the original Star Trek, their decision appears more and more flawed.... Richard Benjamin was great as the captain. It would work even now if they brought it back in new form. Buck Henry was a comedic genius. I am sure something like this would work very well now.... and we need something like this again.

I watched the Quark in 1978, and was sorry to see it go. It was fun to get the chance to watch it again. It does a pretty good job of spoofing science fiction movies. It fails a bit when it uses standard (for the time) sitcom gags.
