Starship Regulars is a Flash animated web series created for Icebox by Rob LaZebnik, a producer of The Simpsons.[1] 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 August 2000, Showtime signed a deal to develop a live-action television version to premiere in June, 2001 and air the second half of the series on their website.[2] As of February 2001, in spite of Icebox shutting down, Showtime still intended to produce the show.[3] Despite this the show was never produced.
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 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.
