Buck Rogers 25th century

Well Ladies and Gentlemen now to get back to our sci-fi roots.

When most people think about science fiction they think about the big ones; Star Wars, Battle Star gallactica and maybe even Flash Gordon.

Before all of these was Buck Rogers. Coming into existence in 1928 he as many heroes of the time started in the comics or more precisely the comic strips. His run in the comic strips didn't end until 1967. In 1932 he made the jump to radio. In 1939 Buck Rogers was brought to life by actor Buster Crabbe in a serial film (think TV at the theaters 12 parts... hmmm kinda like a TV season). From 1979 to 1981 NBC ran Buck Rogers int he 25th century and was played by Gilbert "Gil" Gerard (seen here). This is the Buck Rogers I remember seeing as a child.

I have seen a remake of Battle Star Gallactica, Flash Gordon and even continuations of Star Wars -episodes 1-3. I think it is time to get Captain Buck Rogers back in the saddle. Remember what once was old is new again so hopefully we will see something.

Have Fun and Be Great
