Is Buck Rogers in the 25th Century still on a regular basis on Sci-Fi? I seem to only get 2 or 3 eps to appear on a schedule on TVNow.com.
Thanks!
Thanks!

View Full Version : Sci-Fi Still Airs Buck Rogers in the 25th Century? ClassicTVGal 03-21-2006, 03:53 PM Is Buck Rogers in the 25th Century still on a regular basis on Sci-Fi? I seem to only get 2 or 3 eps to appear on a schedule on TVNow.com. Thanks! dandelion wine 03-21-2006, 04:25 PM Yeah, they've been airing it as part of their weekly marathons. Guess they've decided to show just two episodes again. You can see it again on Monday, April 3: Testimony of a Traitor: Buck is tried for high treason when a 500-year-old videotape documents his participation in a conspiracy against Earth. The Dorian Secret: A stowaway on the Searcher jeopardizes the lives of Buck and the crew. ClassicTVGal 03-21-2006, 06:47 PM Thanks. Yes, I've seen the ep list. Do you ever watch it? I don't believe I ever have. But there's 2 that I am really wanting to see especially. Plot To Kill A City Parts 1 & 2 Guess it'll be awhile....but that's okay. dandelion wine 03-23-2006, 12:27 PM Thanks. Yes, I've seen the ep list. Do you ever watch it? I don't believe I ever have.

You're welcome. :) Yeah, whenever I happen to find it as one of their marathons I will. They also had it real late at night on Saturdays, I think. I usually watched it then, too.

In October and November of 1996, the sci-fi magazine ran a two-part retrospective about the TV show Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. Buck Rogers aired on NBC for two seasons from 1979-1981. Producer Glen A. Larson duplicated the formula of his other successful Star Wars rip-off, Battlestar Galacta. The two shows even cut costs by sharing props. At the time, Buck Rogers was panned as a cheap knock-off which it probably was. I haven’t watched the show since I was ten years old and I don’t want to. All I know is that back in the days when I was obsessed with all things Star Wars, shows like Battlestar and Buck Rogers were the closest thing my friends and I could get to a sci-fi/adventure fix. |
