I used to looove that intro as a kid.

1987 was....the FUTURE!

I've also seen this show.

Krymson Tyde: Meh, this is my go to guy for what things will be like in the 24 1/2th century.

Still waiting on my disintegration pistol (new window).

Ardala. Plz.

...Recycled Battlestar Galactica sets and props?

vernonFL: NuttierThanEver: Hey so long as we get Erin Gray quality women in tight purple lycra pantsuits I'm all for it

Off Think, Off Think, Off Think

Erin and Pam:

I must thank you both belatedly for helping me get through puberty...

Sincerely, Thank you.

Space Rockers? Looks like Daft Punk rejects.

mainsail: ...Recycled Battlestar Galactica sets and props?

You forgot sounds effects.

A great couple of episodes, even if you ignore the jumps in the plot.

Why did I read that as "Buck Owens"?

Now here is series that really needs a re-boot, but not a BSG style re-boot. No this needs to be all a about the pew-pew-pew and the cheese cake and the beef cake in ridiculously scanty clothing, lots of shirtless buff guys and hard body gals in bikini like getup's. Or better yet put it on a premium cable network and have the actors go in the buff, because hey in the future their is no need for clothes or modesty.

I'd say number 10 is almost here now.

bibibibibibibibibbibibbibibbib Erin Gray must be GMILF now bibibbibibibbibbibibbibibibibbbibibibb!

Sybarite: Awesome, I was hoping for the space vampire.

Does not approve of your bullshiat.

I hated the re-vamp with the hawk-man though.. It just got cheesy from there out..

I just came here to say two things:

1) Erin Gray was fantastically hot and I recognized this in my pre pubescent years

and

B) The space vampire scared the living crap outta me when I was a kid.

Still better than Deadmau5.

That's what I'm sayin', homie g!

Can we expect paunchy middle-aged men to walk around with girdles? I can just imagine what it must have been like on set back then....
"...and cut!"
Gil Gerard breathes a sigh of relief as his gut sticks out.

Your fun and heartbreaking fact of the day: Erin Gray auditioned for the part of Janeway on Voyager.

Put me in with the "Erin Gray made me have funny feelings in my bathing suit area" crowd.

No....on second thought... don't put me in with that crowd. They smell of shame and the lingering stench of Pong.

Erin Gray was especially hot in the Space Vampire episode; at one point she is "taken over" and is "programmed" for wanting teh sex with Buck...like a sorority co-ed blitzed on Jagerbombs... and he's too busy to do anything about it.

I wish more good-looking women would cosplay Wilma Deering at cons today...sigh...

That alternate title sequence is one I never saw... even in the theater. And yes, I saw the pilot for this when it was released in movie theaters. I remember they had the "sensurround" speakers bass cranked for the spaceship sounds.

We knew it was utter cheese at the time, but you have to remember, we didn't have a lot of choices available.

This is why season one was awesome.



This is why season 2 sucked.

By the way......




-Wilma as a slave girl. Yowza. Apparently in the future, there will be a whole planet full of them.

I saw the theatrical version in 1979 and it had the "Buck and all the women on the white tables" opening mentioned in TFA.

"bidibidibidi"
"booty...bootybooty"

What about our flying car????

Do you know how Buck Rogers finally died?

Twiki gave him DiaBidibidibidus!

I does amuse me that the show did many to fairly accurately predict electronic music and ravers. Sure, looking back it isn't that much of a stretch when compared to some of the disco clubs but it is still pretty close to what is out there now. Well, accurate as long as you ignore being off by a few centuries and having said rave club be on a space station.

going off what your are observing. It's the same ole damn party music. ;)

Disco never died, it just turned into such things as House music and so on and so forth.. case in point, If lady gaga was around back during that time frame, she wouldve been considered "disco"
there is no reason to think that we would be dealing with the simular type of music and the pop culture surronding for the decades and centuries to come.

you gotta remember that Pop music, in all it's forms can be dissected down to a couple of Mathematical and Psychological equations. Get the scientific formula down and people are compelled to eat that shiat up.
