I've seen Erin Gray within the last year at a con. The woman does not age. Seriously, she's either had a lot of incredible work done with talented surgeons or she's just ridiculously lucky.

By the irrepressible Kipp Lennon? The composer of “Where Everybody Knows Your Name (Theme From Cheers)”? Shall I break it to you gently or rip the band-aid off to get it over in one quick shot?

At least tell me the theme song is as cool as I remember (”What am I, who am I, where can I be …”)

I was one of those guys who watched "Silver Spoons" only because Erin Gray was on it.

I once watched a horror movie called "Asylum" on the late night movie show when I was 11 or 12. The thing scared the CRAP out of me. For years I went around telling people about the movie that had human limbs moving on their own and the most shocking ending ever. In college, I found the film on VHS and rushed to see it again.

It was HORRIBLE!

Those awesome effects with the moving limbs? Yeah, they would have been better if you didn't see the strings moving the obviously fake body part. And knowing the ending, there was no shock. It was one of those sad moments when I wished I hadn't gone back.

No question that Erin Gray was hot, but for minute by minute entertainment, I probably would have preferred an hour of her Bllomingdales commercials where she purred, “Bloomingdales – it's like no other store in the worrrrrrrrrld…”

Eeek. I'm exhibiting signs.

I was one of those Star Wars geeks who took the bait and went to the movies to see Buck Rogers when it came out, and I even watched the series. But, after reading your memories of the show, I gotta say that I have no desire to see Buck or Twiki again.

I remember asking “Santa” to bring me the Buck Rogers SOUNDTRACK, which he did.

Was a fan of Buck Rodgers, but, now I'm afraid to rent it.

I tried watching the original Battlestar Galactica on Netflix, my word is it horrible! I had such fond childhood memories and love the new series but yuck yuck
yuck…I actually gave up after six episodes.
