Tons of GALAXY QUEST images

You all remember that old sci-fi TV series back... Oh... When the hell did that thing run? I seem to remember it popping on about the same timeframe as that BUCK ROGERS series and bout the time that BATTLESTAR GALACTICA was on Earth. Something like 1979 to 1982. I don't think I caught any of the third season episodes. That whole subplot about Dr Lazarus being pregnant with the child of his closest friend Commander Taggart simply because he finally ate Peter Taggart's Rum Cake. Well... I just don't buy that bit about how the hair from Taggart's head being trapped in the rum sauce, then ingested into Lazarus' alien anatomy causing a half Earthling / half citizen of Tev 'Meck. Meanwhile I had a schoolboy crush on Gwen DeMarco something fierce. Her Tawny character almost took the place of Erin Grey, but when she missed out on the last half of the second season cause she got knocked up by that stupid actor playing Lt. Laredo... I hate that bastard. What was his name? Hang on... I'll check IMDB. Ok, it was Tommy Webber. He's the one that got caught in that affair with that foreign floozy, breaking the heart of my dear Tawny. Sigh. Though they were both back for the 3rd season, or so I was told. Does anyone have any of those third season episodes? I missed them all. But man... I can't wait to see this movie. I just hope it doesn't drag like that first STAR TREK movie. Can't believe it's making it to the big screen before Gil Gerard though. Is it true that Jason Nesmith was admitted to the Betty Ford clinic? Well, just to remind you who they are... I included some of my cards from a few years back. Remember "Today is the Tomorrow of Our Yesterdays"? Fucking rocked man.









Confused? Well, 10 to 1, that's going to be the angle that DREAMWORKS is going to want to pitch this flick at us with. Poking a bit of playful fun at the whole Television Sci-Fi series stuff... specifically at Star Trek I believe. Could very well be a fun flick. We'll have to hang on to see. Haven't really heard that much on this one. BTW... that whole opening. It's bullshit. I just decided to have a little fun with the concept of this being a real tv series from yesteryear. It'd be a fun website to create. Create your own episode log, write reviews of them all. Bad scans of the actors, guest spots on FACTS OF LIFE and THE MUPPET SHOW. The whole nine yards. I just hope the film has that sort of fun with it.
