Default Re: Buck Rogers in the 25th Century / BSG Crossover

I have never read this before (second season) cannot say I like most of it .

Boomer and Athena should have had greater roles . recasting or other wise for Athena is one thing that would not have bothered me. Cassiopeia becomes the head Life Sciences
is something I really don't like.. where is the other medical staff .. a ship a mile long and has one Doctor .. please??

Apollo going off and doing a Starbuck effort sounds like a complete twat and against the character direction. and no boxey .. that is Apollo anchor ..

second season for Larson are always a let down . look at the second season of buck Rogers .. mostly rubbish and even Gil Gerard hated it.. he even felt the first Season
could and would have been far better if the producers focused on Buck adjustment to
the 25th century life .. (I agree) rather than the wise cracking smart ass (Gil Gerard quote) that he was.
a well that only my opinion.

But as to the crossover .. I always thought about it myself as a direction to go in would have been a great idea. better then arriving in the 1980s Earth.
