Co-starring Jamie Lee Curtis!!!!, October 3, 2002
This review is from: Buck Rogers: Unchained Woman [VHS] (VHS Tape)
This is a high point in the Canon! It co-stars a very young Jamie Lee Curtis as a convict who can put the finger on the nefarious space pirate, Pantera! Here is what I learned from this episode; 1. In the future prison guards will wear leather dresses. 2. Androids always take out their frustration on hapless scenery. 3. "Tied to a chair" is a great look for Erin Gray. 4. Squids roam the deserts of the future. 5. Finally, while styles of clothing and cars may change, hairstyles will always remain the same, relevant to the time of the episode's filming. In closing, this one has plenty of good Buck. He has to rescue Wilma, fight an indestructible android,capture a space pirate and outwit a diabolical Space Diplomat. And don't forget the Sand Squid.

Jamie's Kinda Cute in Orange!, May 26, 2003
This review is from: Buck Rogers: Unchained Woman [VHS] (VHS Tape)
For those of you who are not acquainted with the Buck Rogers series, here's a short rundown. In 1987, NASA launched the last deep space probe, captained by William "Buck" Rogers (Gil Gerard). In a "freak mishap," the ship is blown off its trajectory into an orbit that freezes the life support systems, and returns him to Earth 500 years later. The series takes Buck, along with the gorgeous Col. Wilma Deering (Erin Gray) and friends on many interesting adventures throughout space. Younger sci-fi fans may be disappointed with the special effects and simple story lines. However, for those of us who grew up in the 80s, they can still be as exciting and fun as they were when we were kids. In this episode, Buck goes undercover as a convict in order to find wrongly convicted prisoner Jen (Jamie Lee Curtis). They need to get ahold of her to get information that will help them stop her boyfriend from breaking the law. Buck needs to break out of prison with Jen, meet up with Wilma, and stop the boyfriend, while being chased by a prison guard android who just keeps on coming.

The goddess Erin Gray, March 31, 2000
This review is from: Buck Rogers: Unchained Woman [VHS] (VHS Tape)
Erin Gray, in her tight spandex outfits, is the reason to watch the late 70s Buck Rogers. Kudos to her costume designers!
