One was the short-lived Sci-Fi Channel series that ran for a short while in the 2007 Season. The 'Buck Rogers in the 25th Century' I am referring to was an American motion picture produced by Universal Studios and released in 1979. It was also the title of a television series based upon that film that was aired by NBC for two seasons between 1979 and 1981. Of course the film and TV series were based upon the Buck Rogers character that had been featured in comic strips since the 1920's. The film was released after the huge success of 'Star Wars', and the TV show was made to capitalize on the new sci-fi craze (similiar to Battlestar Galactica appearing on TV) ! The TV series starred Gil Gerard as Buck, and Erin Gray as Colonel Wilma Deering. The issues that cover feature Erin Gray don't last long when we have those for sale!
