Capt. William "Buck" Rogers is a jovial space cowboy who is accidentally time-warped from 1987 to 2491. Earth is engaged in interplanetary war following a global holocaust, and Buck's piloting skills make him an ideal starfighter recruit for the Earth Defense Directorate, where his closest colleagues are Dr. Huer (Tim O'Connor), squadron leader Col. Wilma Deering (former model Erin Gray), the wisecracking robot Twiki (voiced by cartoon legend Mel Blanc), and a portable computer-brain named Dr. Theopolis.

I saw that a couple times. Gil Gerard, I thought he was really quite good in the movie. And it was actually kind of interesting because Star Wars came out in 1977 and it became the sensation. And so they needed a science fiction movie right away, but they all had to be big. So for a year they're waiting for another science fiction movie, but they’ve got to make them. But they had done Buck Rogers in the 25th Century for television and they could get it out sooner. So this was the first one out of the gate. Yeah, it was a fun one.
