Gil Gerard and Erin Grey Are Sorta Back on ‘Buck Rogers’
Some of you really old folks like me might remember a science fiction series of the late 70′s/early 80′s called ‘Buck Rogers in the 25th Century.’ The stars were Gil Gerard as Buck and Erin Grey as Wilma Deering.
Well, they’re back and this time they’re Mr. and Mrs. Rogers. In a webisode series produced by James Cawley, who also did the ‘Star Trek‘ Phase II web series. Bobby Rice stars as the young Buck. A scene for the series was released on YouTube and in it, Buck is arguing with his parents about participating in World War I.
Based on the clip, this series seems more of an homage to the previous versions of the character than the one Gil Gerard starred in. It certainly adds an interesting wrinkle by having someone from our past trapped in our future.
However the series is set, it will likely be above and beyond SyFy’s craptacular ‘Flash Gordon’ series.
Video is after the jump.
