Staple of my childhood. Sad news, rip Buck

How sad

. R.I.P. One of my favourite T.V shows when I was a kid and even own the whole series on Bluray when they remastered it and it looks amazing. Loved the music in it and the opening themes.

RIP
Always loved Buck Rodgers as a kid, even had metal diecast spaceship/starfighter.

"Beedly....beedly...ok buck" (as I recall the robot was called Tweaky)

Fun fact, back in the day when someone had a haircut that resembled Twiki's helmet we'd go "beedy....beedy...beedy"

. As we got older the insults weren't as innocent :cry:

The filthy princess did something tingly to me when i was young............(same as Princess Aura in Flash).

Great show and no idea how people are misremembering Gil Gerard for Lee Majors! Lee Majors was Steve Austin and then Colt Seavers!

RIP Buck

Well maybe 40 years ago, they are both now 75 years old...

One of the greats. I just remembered I had the white space fighter helmet as a kid, I chewed the microphone part.

True, I should have said back in the day, but then that isn't really any better age gap wise. I would have still been in primary school for a good few years more at that point...! :eek:

RIP Buck, thanks for the entertainment.

the original opening song is great, can't take my eyes off it!
