Finally on DVD! However...
Added 11/7/2009
All I can say that it is about time!!! Ever since the TV studios decided to put the actual seasonal TV shows on DVD (Something that was impossible with the VHS era. I kept asking and begging the ultimate question. When is BUCK ROGERS coming to DVD? Well the wait was finally over and I did not care about the price I was willing to pay it. That is how much of a fan I was. The cool thing is that all of the shows uncut and unedited just like the way NBC aired it the first time. The episode FLIGHT OF THE WAR WITCH took me by surprise though. The opening intro was very different and I gave it two thumbs up with a woohoo yell.
Now there is a down side. I was disappointed with two things. One, they should have included the TV Pilot version that had almost 10 minutes of extra footage and two they should have put a ton of special features with behind the scenes footage with interviews of the cast and crew Then & Now

Buck Rogers in the 1980s
Added 10/10/2009
My wife and I have been watching these episodes, sometimes as many as three in one day. We both watched this show when it was first run, but neither of us have seen it since then.
It is a great view of the future that never was. It is good to see a 1980's view of the future. The hair, clothing, buildings are lots of fun.
Many of the actors are familiar from other science fiction shows, Sam Jaffe appears as a wise leader of a planet. This series is not serious science fiction but it is an enjoyable way to spend an afternoon.

another trip down memory lane

I enjoy seeing some of my favorite tv series, and this one was a delight for me. I can't account for how others may feel about it, but I enjoyed the ride.

Buck Rogers hurray!
Added 9/16/2009
I have always been a SciFi fan and Buck Rogers is the mainstay of SciFi in movies and TV since the 1930's. Gil Gerard carrys on the tradition of the 20th century american hero cast into an uncertain and perilous future wonderfully! The series is both entertaining and humorous and competely G rated for the kiddies as well! Loads of fun!

B Movie Classic

Classic Glen Larsen. Never took itself too seriously. Lots of hot women and most of the classic Batman villains. Season one is far better than season two. two sometimes got a little laborious and annoying. All in all, good stuff.
