Buck Rogers in the 25th Century - Season 1
Driving by his deep will of saving earth, Buck Rogers, a gutsy pioneer, who goes in a mission to space, where he has been solidified and caught in space for a long time, as he is frozen and reclaimed to earth, where he battles against adapting to that new and bizarre world, while putting forth a valiant effort to confront the awful assault of outsiders.

Has pretensions to mediocrity, a goal far too high for it to reach.

An entertaining diversion from a bygone era - much like Buck himself. The performances are better than they would be in the series that followed and it's a good example of the kind of TV Sci-Fi they don't make anymore.

Gil Gerard's Rogers is just a big, smirky, takecharge jerk. No sooner does he revive than he's showing the fighter pilots of the 25th century how to do their stuff.

The whole show is one long scarydisco flashbasic, basically...

Some intelligent, sophisticated people have knocked themselves out to transform bland into bland.

Sadly, with every sweet innuendo and outlandish guest star (Jamie Lee Curtis as a penal-colony prisoner? Gary Coleman as a thawed-out genius? Groovy!) in Buck Rogers in the 25th Century comes a plodding sci-fi plot.

A routine space Western

The smug Gil Gerard, painfully sucking in his gut for the skin-tight white future-suit, dashes about, a plank with a haircut, hoping to echo the swagger of Harrison Ford's Han Solo and missing by light-years.

The show was cheap and chintzy, full of "wacky" robots and stupid villains.

This is 30 hours of chunky homestyle sciffy goofiness.

At best, the formula works like vintage Bond (explicitly so in the title sequence). But too much time is wasted with stale Star Wars plagiarisms, including the screen's dullest robot.

If there's any justice, the Buck will stop here and soon.
