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.May 09, 2018
This is 30 hours of chunky homestyle sciffy goofiness.May 09, 2018
The whole show is one long scarydisco flashbasic, basically...May 09, 2018
Has pretensions to mediocrity, a goal far too high for it to reach.May 09, 2018
If there's any justice, the Buck will stop here and soon.May 09, 2018
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.May 09, 2018
The show was cheap and chintzy, full of "wacky" robots and stupid villains.May 09, 2018
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.May 09, 2018
Some intelligent, sophisticated people have knocked themselves out to transform bland into bland.May 09, 2018
A routine space WesternMay 09, 2018
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.May 09, 2018
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.
