BuckWhen Buck Rogers ended its first season, it was decided that the show needed some retooling. In the first season, Buck Rogers was based on Earth and many of the storylines began on the planet. The show also had a lighter tone. Buck was a cheap Han Solo knockoff. Yet, Gil Gerrard grew more and more pissed about the way his character behaved. He didn’t care for some of the goofy remarks and jokes, and he wanted the show to be darker.
Well, the show did change tone…just not the way he wanted it. Buck Rogers left Earth and went aboard an explorer ship. This mission of this ship was to find other Human colonies that were out there in space. Does this sound like some other Sci-fi show? Battle Galactica.
Yep, not only did they recycle ships and props from the show, but even the damn concept.
Looking back on the show, there is still a part of me that enjoys the poor special effects and the bad writing. We’ve certainly come a long way in Sci-fi.
Erin Gray sets up some party favorites for Buck: I know, that sounds dirty but it isn't. I like that the Robot calls Erin babe. BTW, isn't that a modified robot dog from Dr. Who? The spandex is extremely tight here.
Planet of the Slave Girls - Erin Gray - Steam Room : You know its the best job in the world when you have two hot women climbing over you.
Erin Gray has a close encounter with a bunch of little people: Things get a little heated when these little people get curious and want to know what a woman looks like...for research. They use their powers to undress Erin. I'm not making this up. Look for a young Tony Cox in the scene too. He seems really creepy.
Roller skaters dancing: This is almost as bad as the Space Hippies from Star Trek. Almost...
