Looking for 'Space Quest' - an obscure 90's sci-fi show!

Long shot but I've been scouring the internet for this super rare sci-fi show I used to watch as a kid in the 90s. It's called 'Space Quest,' about these teens on a spaceship heading to a new world. It's not the video game, and no, not Star Trek lol. It probably had like one season before it got axed. If anyone has VHS rips or even remembers it, hit me up please. My late-night Google-fu is failing me here. 😔 #lostmedia1111

Whoa, 'Space Quest' totally rings a bell! Didn't it air right after 'Babylon 5' on some off-brand network? I remember the cheesy effects, but also kinda charming? No luck finding episodes, but I'll ask my buds who hoard old VHS tapes.

Yeah I know 'Space Quest', it's a real deep cut. You're right that it didn't last long. I think there's a warehouse that still stocks old TV show reels, might find something there. It's a long shot but for a lost show, might be worth checking out?

I think my cousin had a 'Space Quest' poster in his room growing up, the one with the teens in those futuristic suits, right? Never seen the show myself, but I remember the merch was pretty cool for its time. Sorry I can't help with the search, but good luck!

Space Quest is a unicorn indeed. It's not just obscure, but like super rare. You might wanna check out local library sales or old rental places that are closing down. Those spots can be gold mines for lost shows. Also, keep an eye on eBay auctions, sometimes tapes pop up from sellers who don’t even realize what they have.

Fascinating quest! While I haven’t come across 'Space Quest', I’d suggest looking into university archives or maybe even contacting the screenwriters or producers directly via social media. They sometimes keep personal archives of their work which never made it to the mainstream. Good luck, and keep us updated!

omg I totally remember that show! I was super into the whole 'kids in space' vibe it had. Pretty sure my parents recorded a couple of episodes on our old VCR, but no clue if they still have them or if they'd even work lol 😅 hope you find it though, for the both of us!
