My only regret was that I wished they could have kept Leslie (Jennifer Holmes) as at least a semiregular, because I liked her cheerful innocence, but they did do a great job gradually changing the show -- getting rid of Kirk was the best move they made. I hadn't remembered they switched from video to film -- interesting. (We're still in Season 1 on cable.)<BR/><BR/>Best wishes,<BR/>LauraLaurahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09626109831176745957noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6956070.post-73435266707448599092007-09-29T10:17:00.000-04:002007-09-29T10:17:00.000-04:00I think the logic behind the 2nd year BUCK ROGERS ...I think the logic behind the 2nd year BUCK ROGERS reboot was something like, "Let's make it more like Star Trek", since TREK was doing well in syndication.<BR/><BR/>However, TREK also had the best and the brightest science fiction writers, who could write literate stories; BUCK ROGERS only seemed to take the superficial aspects (Starship, alien colleague, etc), hoping for a hit.<BR/><BR/>Even as a ten year old, I loved the initial BUCK ROGERS series to death, but avoided it most of its second season.Gordon Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01048644813784102126noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6956070.post-2392119215680605122007-09-28T19:24:00.000-04:002007-09-28T19:24:00.000-04:00As a young kid (OK, I was, like, 11), I watched th...As a young kid (OK, I was, like, 11), I watched the entire run of Mork and Mindy on Nick at Nite, and it was really jarring how characters would join and leave the show, seemingly randomly. And the show was a huge hit!<BR/><BR/>A re-tooled show plays even MORE weirdly in syndication. Honestly, I never noticed Newhart was retooled when I watched that in syndication, so they did a fine job there.Toddhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10538651542043518746noreply@blogger.com
