1978 NBC. "Vanessa 38-24-36." Richard Benjamin garbage scow in space sitcom. Created by Buck Henry. Tim Thomerson, Richard Kelton, Patricia and Cyb Barnstable, Conrad Janis as Palindrome, and Alan Caillou as The Head. United Galaxy Sanitation Patrol Cruiser. Episodes of Quark come and go all the time on Youtube. Short run of eight. This was the last show of the season.
Directed by Hy Averback. It's the holiday season. #11. "What should I give Ficus? Give him a plant. Ficus is a plant." The Head is going to use Commander Quark for an experiment. The new commander is a computer. Vanessa is a fancy new infallible computer. Vanessa's perfection will make the rest of the crew obsolete. But it's up to human ingenuity and Commander Quark when real trouble arrives. Quark's space walk turns into a walk with death when his hose is snipped. Robot Andy - "I can think of a few reasons to panic!" Quark has some spare air but will there be enough time? "A man can take so much but when it comes to having his hose snipped, that's where I draw the line."
I really enjoyed Quark the first time I watched it. One of the good early sitcom finds. I've watched it several times since. Good show.
