Starship Regulars

Starship Regulars was an animated Macromedia Flash cartoon series created by Simpsons producer Rob LaZebnik for Icebox in 1999. It parodied modern science fiction programs such as "Star Trek". The series is available at Icebox's website, as well as on Comcast video on Demand.

In 2000, Showtime expressed interest in developing a live-action television version.

"Starship Regulars" is set aboard the massive Federation starship "Integrity" in the 24th century. The "Integrity" is commanded by Captain Bellagen (usually referred to as "The Captain"). The series focuses on three grunt soldiers, Tycho, Wilson, and Dave. In contrast to the morality shown by the Captain, Tycho and Wilson are shown to be more interested in "getting laid" or drinking booze.
