So... you like Guardians of the Galaxy, but wish there was a lot more? Then may I recommend Farscape?
Made by the Jim Henson company, this show ran for 4 seasons on the SciFi network, and was followed up with a mini series to tie up loose plotlines. You'll find several familiar characters.
John Crichton is an astronaut who got pulled into a wormhole into the far side of the galaxy. None of the other characters take him very seriously because he makes a lot of pop cultural references none of them understand. Sounds a bit like Peter Quill / Star Lord. He also develops a powerful ability no one else understands. Both of them also wear long trenchcoats and use twin pistols.
Officer Aeryn Sun is an alien who looks human - raised from birth to be a soldier. She and Crichton have a will they / won't they unresolved sexual tension thing going on. Gammora, anyone? Bonus - she's also hated by her former comrades (Nebula).
Ka D'Argo is a warrior who is pushes others away because of his violent past. His wife and child were killed and he seeks revenge. Drax, perhaps?
Rigel the XVI is the deposed ruler of an alien race who is insulting, greedy, and a thief. Granted, he's not furry or the product of science experiments, but he's small in size and has a lot in common with Rocket.
Zhaan is a plant based being who is the most spiritual of the group, but also can be surprisingly violent. She can say a lot more than "I am Groot," but still...also, she's blue and bald like Nebula.
Oh, and they're all escaped criminals being hunted by an insane military commander. Two of them in fact - the first, Crais, starts out like Ronan, but ends up becoming an ally like Yondu. The second, Scorpius, is pure manipulative evil with his own agenda - much like Thanos.
There's no really good match for some of the other characters like Chiana or Pilot, but if you want to see a show with the same humor, drama, and action as Guardians of the Galaxy, I highly recommend Farscape. It is easily in my top 5 scifi shows of all time.
