Buzz Lightyear of Star Command

Buzz Lightyear of Star Command is an American animated science fiction/adventure/comedy series produced by Walt Disney Television Animation. The series originally aired on UPN and ABC from October 2000 to January 2001 as part of Disney's One Saturday Morning programming block.[1] It follows the adventures of space ranger Buzz Lightyear, who first appeared in the film *Toy Story* as an action figure and one of the film's protagonists.

## Plot

*Buzz Lightyear of Star Command* takes place in the far future, and is a pastiche of *Star Trek*, *Battlestar Galactica*, *Babylon 5*, *Lost in Space*, *Flash Gordon*, *Buck Rogers*, *Doctor Who* and *Star Wars*-style science fiction. Capital Planet is the forefront of the Galactic Alliance, a peaceful union of various planets, home to various alien species that coexist in harmony with one another. Star Command is a peacekeeping organization consisting of Space Rangers, who investigate threats to galactic peace. The primary enemy of Star Command is the Evil Emperor Zurg, an intergalactic crime boss that rules an empire of heavily armed robots and slave races forced to work in opposition to the Galactic Alliance.

The series features Buzz Lightyear, a famous, experienced Space Ranger who takes a crew of rookies under his wing as he investigates criminal activity across the galaxy, and attempts to bring down Evil Emperor Zurg once and for all.

*Buzz Lightyear of Star Command* is a metafictional series that exists within the reality of the film *Toy Story*, where Buzz Lightyear is a highly popular toyline. One of the two lead characters in the *Toy Story* film series is a Buzz Lightyear action figure, voiced by Tim Allen.

* King Nova (voiced by John O'Hurley): Mira's father and the ruler of Tangea. Being more tradition bound he clearly disapproves of his daughter being a space ranger and therefore has a complicated relationship with her as well as Buzz. But regardless of his pompous nature he still cares about his daughter and also came to her aid when she had developed a power addiction and helped her get over it, though he almost got his wish of getting his daughter back in this instance had Buzz not saved her career through a cover story.
* Santa Claus (voiced by Earl Boen): The holiday figure, who delivers presents to all the good people in the galaxy during the Holiday. He previously used a sleigh powered by belief and later time manipulation to accomplish this massive task. Zurg stole his time manipulation device to destroy the Holiday for everyone, prompting Santa to seek Team Lightyear's help.

* Rentwhistle Swack (voiced by French Stewart): An unscrupulous conman who will do anything for money.
