Comment by Ruth Anthony-Gardner on November 13, 2012 at 12:07am: Hey, great! Thanks sk8eycat. The second Quark video starts with my favorite scene. I've bookmarked it. *big smile*

Comment by sk8eycat on November 8, 2012 at 7:39pm: I've been having trouble finding things on Wikipedia the last few weeks; I think they've made some major changes....and I don't like them!

Try this: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0077066/

Scroll down below the cast list for a brief storyline.

Comment by Ruth Anthony-Gardner on November 8, 2012 at 7:00pm: sk8eycat, the Quark (TV series) wikipedia link was a dud. Glad somebody else enjoyed it.

Comment by Bio Bill on November 2, 2012 at 12:51pm: That ad I post earlier was from 1893.

Comment by sk8eycat on November 1, 2012 at 9:55pm: Ruth and Stephen: I LOVED "Quark"! It didn't last very long...not even a full season...but it was cleverly, wickedly funny. I think that was about the time that the average couch potato had to have everything spelled out for him/her in capital letters. They just didn't get subtle humor.

Same thing happened at about the same time to a comedy about Robin Hood, I think. "When Things Were Rotten" That was produced by Mel Brooks. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/When_Things_Were_Rotten

Both Mel Brooks and Buck Henry were creators/writers on "Get Smart."

Comment by Steph S. on November 1, 2012 at 8:23pm: Ruth that Klingon half pecan LOL is really funny.

Comment by Stephen Goldin on November 1, 2012 at 8:13pm: Last I looked, that brand of soap is still around today. I've seen it in the store as "Kirk's Castile Soap." No extraterrestrial claims, but it is supposed to be a very pure, basic soap without weird additives.

Ruth, that long ago series you're thinking of was called "Quark," created by Buck Henry and starring Richard Benjamin. Very funny.
