Everyone Has Forgotten About These Once-Popular TV Shows

Quark was a delightfully bizarre sci-fi comedy aired briefly on NBC in 1978, created by Get Smart co-creator Buck Henry. The show followed Adam Quark (Richard Benjamin), a space sanitation officer tasked with cleaning up the galaxy’s cosmic trash.

His crew included a pair of identical female clones (one constantly insisting she’s the original), a cowardly robot, and a half-human, half-plant science officer — all aboard a hilariously underwhelming spaceship.
