- "As long as there is injustice, whenever a Targathian baby cries out, wherever a distress signal sounds among the stars, we'll be there. This fine ship, this fine crew. Never give up... never surrender. "

Behind the Scenes[]
A favorite among many casual fans, mostly because of Commander Taggart's stirring speech in the final scene. Nevertheless serious Questarians tend to downgrade "The Targathian syndrome" bec of serious continuity errors in the opening battle, For example, Laredo menionts the previous encounter with the Targathians, as seen in episode 6 despite the fact that Tommy Webber did not join the Galaxy Quest cast until the seventh episode, and was not even in episode 6.
