• Somewhat true, but "Buck" was never so young in any of his other appearances. Newspapers, movies, Serials and T.V. he was a man, not a boy.

• Sorry OM, that is totally wrong! There were 75 people on set that were witness to Mr. Gerard's behavior over one crew member that James refused to fire! The simple fact that Gil could not run ruff shod over James and get his way is why he is not on the show. The show will be better for it in the long run as it would not have made sense to have Gil play another character in the future setting as he wanted to. It will be much stronger with him remaining in the past as the dad. I was on that set and Mr. Gerard was not nice to work with.

• Wow. What planet is that grapevine on? That is sooo...NOT correct. The actor's all had "above the table" contracts, which were all fulfilled. Gil disagreed with some of Cawley's choices for "production crew". On "Trek Movie", Cawley directly says Gil wanted him to fire someone he refused to.

• Wow. I can't believe how bad the acting was from people who supposedly used to be able to act. And what's with the girlie lips on that nancy boy "Buck"?

• ...For those not aware, Gil's no longer having anything to do with the James Cawley-produced webseries. Official reason is "creative differences", but the word through the fan grapevine is that it has something to do with Cawley not coming up with some "under the table" cash he supposedly promised Gil and Erin for appearing in the first episode, and in flashbacks to occur in later episodes.

• Gil Gerard and Erin Gray are an ingenious and very sweet bit of nostalgic casting there.

• Hot bean-snappin' action.

• And the sentence of today, that must be used in at least one real world conversation, is: "Snap those beans, you saucy tart."

• Erin Gray has turned into the woman from Grant Wood's American Gothic. My eyes burn and my heart is sore.

• Having never watched any Buck Rogers before, I can only assume that Bush Rogers was a really lame melo-drama aimed at whoever watches those silly Hallmark made-for-tv movies.

• Buck Rogers should not have a purdy mouth. Jus' sayin.

• nice to see Gil and Erin back together guess it means buck and Wilima from the old series found happiness. and a nice passing of the torch from the oringal tv buck to the new version.

• Just to let you all know Bobby is NOT wearing any lipstick those are just his lips and it is a artifact of the Sepiatone filter I have seen the color footage it does not look like that ....but this is 1918 Yes its drab and boring looking Wait till we get to the 25th century Tony

• Does anybody else think Buck looks like the Jack Nicholson's Joker?

• It's riff on the old movie serial version from back in the early part of the last century. Wow that makes me feel old just to know that and refer to it.

• If you're going strictly by the TV show, then you'd be correct. But this seems to be based on the original strips, in which case it's probably not all that far off.

• 'Passing the Buck' SNERK! SPOOT! LOL

• Wow. It took me until the end of the clip to realize that was Gil Gerard. I find just this rather cool.

• davelog is right! Snap those beans, Col. Deerng. Snap. Those. Beans. Yeeeeeeeaaaahhhhhh... I'm done.

• I don't drink - I'm just old.

• oh, man, you seriously need to put down that beer. no more drinks for you.

• If all you're familiar with the is the TV show, then yeah. But this seems like it's gonna be based on the newspaper strips in which case it looks like it's gonna be pretty accurate.

• I read a lot of the original newspaper strips at the library some time ago...I'm looking forward to this.

• The gold was taken from the fillings harvested from "lodgers."

• 'Passing Buck' SNERK! LOL

• It is a boring scene, especially out of context. I think the entire reason it was released is because it features Erin Grey and Gil Gerard. (She's gorgeous as always, and he's managed to maintain a healthy weight - good on him.) I couldn't help but notice Ma Rogers/Ms. Grey's lovely rings. I guess midwest farmers in the late 1910's did well for themselves.

• mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm Erin Gray

• Having Gil Gerard as daddy Rogers was a nice touch. Its like when Buster Crabbe was a guest star in the episode "The Fighting 69th." A passing of the torch to the next generation. Or is that passing the Buck?

• Is Hawkman and Tigerman bailing hey in the barn with that new fangled bailing machine that keeps going bebby bebby bebby.

• You've not seem movies from the 20s and 30s eh? It's done in the style of films from that era.

• Yep, that's Gil all right!

• I noticed it was Gil Gerard too. So awesome! Erin Gray was by far one of the hottest chicks in 80's television. In my book she even surpassed Daisy Duke, which was pretty hard to do.

• Lipstick. He's wearing lipstick. His lips are redder than his mother's! Doesn't anyone else see that!?

• That is incredibly awesome, getting Erin Gray and Gil Gerard back together.. for a web series of all things! Very nice! Now bring on the Silver Spoons web series!

• Even at her advanced age, Erin Gray is beyond hot. Yeah, snap those beans, you saucy tart.

• That's about as Buck Rogers as my ... toe nail. wtf?

• Did you also not notice that the father is Gil Gerard? Buck Rogers from the 80's?
