Oh, man, I loved Quark. "Bee, bee, bee, bee, bee!"
So entirely silly. A show before its time.
Book: Yes, I'd forgotten you're moonlighting as a criminal mastermind now. Got your next heist planned? Simon: No. But I'm thinking about growing a big black mustache. I'm a traditionalist.

Boxed Set, Vol. II: "It's a Cookbook...A Cookbook!!"
A topic for the discussion of Farscape, Smallville, and Due South. Beware possible invasions of Stargate, Highlander, or pretty much any other "genre" show that captures our fancy. Expect Adult Content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Days shrink and grow cold, sunlight through leaves is my song. Winter is long.

I... I feel like a have a huge, gaping hole in my pop culture knowledge. What is QUARK? I'll go google now...
ETA: Hmmm. No, I don't think I was aware of it. The Ficus thing sounds familiar, but I could just be making that up.

Richard Benjamin (Love at First Bite, Goodbye, Columbus) played Captain Quark, of an intergalactic garbage scow, with a madcap crew of wacky individuals. And clones. "She is. No, SHE is."

You always do this. We get tipsy, and you take advantage of my love of the scientific method.
Quark was only on for about as long as Firefly, so not surprising that many never heard of it. No movie, either.
I torrented the whole run a while back. It didn't really live up to my memory of it.
I just thought the leads were hot, even as I snarked at the moon flying through space all by its lonesome.
The leads were smoking hot when they were on Mission Impossible together. Plus there was the whole question of if there was that big of an explosion on the far side of the moon, shouldn't it have driven the moon crashing into Earth, rather than sending it off into interstellar space?

All is well that ends in pizza.

Not to mention, if the moon did careen off into space, the effect of the lack of the moon on the Earth would be devistating.
Oh! And the fact that the moon apparently traveled fast enough to shoot past a different planet or system every week, and still not get caught up in their gravity well, meanwhile still being slow enough to interact with the inhabitants of said planets/moons. In English.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.
Atomic waste explosions make your moon do the wacky....
