to making pompous, solemn declarations, with a knack for screwing up when saying proverbs or quoting philosophers. Other members include: Flavien Bouchard (Claude Legault), the radar operator who possesses heightened senses and is in desperate search for his father (it is learned in the last season that his dad is an alien), Bob Dieudonné Marcellin (Didier Lucien), a bald, black chubby man who is the spaceship pilot (the spaceship's dashboard is a bus dashboard, complete with steering wheel) who is best friends with Flavien and who obsesses over two things: food and Petrolia Staneslavsky (Mélanie Ménard). Petrolia is a half-Russian space orphan whose inventiveness seems to cause just as many problems as it solves. She is in a relationship with Flavien. Serge (Réal Bossé) is a humanoid robot Petrolia created, stricken with multiple personalities and abilities and who is constantly falling into disrepair. Valence Leclerc (Isabelle Brossard first season and Sylvie Moreau subsequent seasons) is the ship's psychologist but assumes all medical functions as well. She and the captain are secretly in love (until the last episode of the 3rd season). Brad Spitfire (Stéphane Crête), the resident scientist, is cause for most of the plot conflicts and complications. His main objective is to become captain. He is anti-social, power-hungry, egotistic, Machiavellian and incredibly weak and sensitive, though generally not of other's feelings. Despite these, actor Stéphane Crête makes Brad one of the series' most amusing and lovable characters. The show evolved greatly between the first and last season. In the first episode of the second season, two characters disappeared: Falbo Gotta (Paul Ahmarani), the ship's mercenary and protector, and Mirabella Romario (Pascale Montpetit), the ship's doctor who turned out to be a criminal who faked her way to employment on the ship in order to run away from the world police. It is after being finally revealed as an impostor that Mirabella left the ship, followed by Falbo who got lost looking for her. Not long after their departure, Petrolia and Serge were found and filled in their spots. It is revealed in a later episode that Falbo and Mirabella have survived and are living peacefully on the planet they were left on. Background The series is a parody of science-fiction works like Star Trek or Red Dwarf and often dealt with environmentalism, humanitarianism, pacifism and ethics. Most members of the team subscribe to these noble morals, with the notable
