Quark premiered on NBC on February 24, 1978. This spoof of science fiction films and TV series features the adventures of Adam Quark, captain of a United Galactic sanitation patrol ship. His cohorts include Gene/Jean, a "transmute" with male and female characteristics; a Vegeton (a highly-evolved plant-man) named Ficus; and Betty I and Betty II (who always argue over who's the clone of the other). Based at space station Perma One are Otto Palindrome and The Head. Though Quark is supposed to stick to his sanitization patrols, he and his crew often meet adventure with such colorful space denizens as the evil High Gorgon (head of the villainous gorgons), Zoltar the Magnificent, and Zargon the Malevolent.
