I would have totally watched Galaxy Quest if it were an actual show. Or even a show about making the show. I don’t care, Galaxy Quest was just that awesome.

Trivia note: The kid who’s the huge fan of the series grew up to be the “I’m a Mac” guy in the Apple ads. He was also a doctor in the cult film _Idiocracy_ as well as Bruce Willis’s sidekick in _Live Free or Die Harder_. At least he’s playing outside. 😃
