Buck Rogers (1979 Version)

Love old Buck, even with it's limitations. Though the state dinner scene where the entertainment is roller disco still stands out a bit.... LOL.

But it actually had a lot of interesting scifi concepts in the original theatrical release that didn't get much work in the later seasons. Could have done a lot with the post-nuclear Earth and highlighting the tech metropolises like New Chicago with the wastelands.

And of course the aforementioned 'assets' of the female cast.

Also loved the Starfighter - it was originally supposed to be the Colonial Viper in BSG, but they went with a different design for that show. Can't imagine the two reversed.

Still have my Starfighter model.

I still have packed away my old BSG toys. I'll have to double check, I think that they are the toys which have the little red lazer things that fire out. If I'm not mistaken, they had two versions. The original version had the plastic lazer things that would fly out and then they had to change them to make boring and "safer" where they only popped out, but didn't fly out.

If I am not mistaken, that's being produced by the same group of people that make Star Trek: The New Voyages (now known as Star Trek: Phase II).

My only beef is that the dude playing Buck is the same dude that plays Peter Kirk on Phase II. I do not think he is a very good actor at all.

I love how they just ignored all the people outside the cities. How about trying to help those people.

Maybe only Republicans survived the nuclear holocaust.

I have that novel.

Really interesting. Especially how Buck teaches World War One era battle tactics to the Americans to defeat the Han.

Of course the Americans finding some nuclear weapons in an old arms depot helps tremendously as well....

Having finished watching Planet of the Slave Girls (which had only ONE slave girl ), I must say, yes, the show was atrocious. But I shall continue watching for the skin tight lamé jumpsuits on the women!

On the upside you get a really nice view of Erin Gray's ass as Buck pulls her up on the rope.

I don't know why. Gray was not conventionally beautifull. Not in the cover girl stunning way. But to this day I think she is major hot.

And the fighter battle at the end was very nicely handled with some actual strategy involved rather than the typical (of all science fiction) of "swoop & shoot".

To me, when watching any television show from the 1970s you've got to kind of put on what I call a "network/decade filter".

This was the last decade when the big three broadcast networks were truly all powerful and their dampening effect on innovation and experimentation in television was truly huge.

Televisions shows were thought to be required to appeal to ALL audiences. From young kids to mature adults. So you had things like every science fiction series (think Battlestar: Galactica as well) featuring kids and a cute robot whenever possible.

This was also the height of the Garry Marshall comedies on ABC which people thought were the way to make television (Happy Days, Laverne & Shirley, Mork & Mindy).

Ever rewatch that stuff now?

How did anyone half paying attention think it was remotely funny?

I still love Happy Days and Mork & Mindy.

Hell, in a lot of ways I miss having some of that safe, family entertainment.

Aroo? Erin Grey was a supermodel before the term existed. She was spokewoman for Max Factor, Revlon and Bloomingdale's before she went into acting. She was known as a beauty first and an actress second.

She's not handing out green M&M's, though...

Sorry. I had forgotten her modeling background.

Media Central. Chill.

Chill?!?!? What did I miss?!??!?

I didn't see any non-chillin'!

Maybe Nautica's comment?

Ah. I see. Maybe.

Wait, what? Who's this "Nautica" person?!?!?

That episode also had a small guest role by Buster Crabbe as a fighter pilot named "Gordon"!

You must have been a rich kid.

Yes, I designed the hookah the aliens were smoking in the cantina in ANH and Princess Leah's slave costume for RotJ.

And there was a nice nod, when Buck compliments Crabbe on his performance, then inquires where Crabbe learned to pilot like that. Crabbe responds by saying that he'd been doing it before Buck was born, Buck seems dubious, and Crabbe assures him its true. The sad thing is that this is Crabbe's only appearance in the series. Today, he'd be given the part of a recurring character, Wilma's step-father or something.

Yeah, a neat touch. Crabbe played both Flash Gordon and Buck Rogers in his heyday.

I think Buck's smugness at his comment about 'before you were born' stems from the fact that Buck is technically 500+ years old, which Gordon could not have known.

Planet of the Slave Girls Part 2

Earlier I said that I thought aspects of the pilot could only be explained in terms of coke filled orgies of the late 70s, and I'm sticking to it with this episode.

Buck and GWLLABBI take a fighter to find Wilma, while the token black chick of the episode is sent to inform Earth of what's going on. As they're flying over the desert, Buck and GWLLABBI are attacked by an energy leech. Instead of being some kind of cool ass alien lifeform which drains power from the fighter (akin to the space lamprey which attacked Voyager, but without all the stupid "We can't kill it!" silliness), its an invisible beam that drains power out of the fighter. Buck and GWLLABBI manage to make a hard landing with their fighter.

Suiting up in gold leather "survival suits" complete with hoods, Buck and GWLLABBI begin walking to find Wilma. Gerard and GWLLABBI earned their pay for this episode, IMHO, as it was clearly shot in the desert, during the heat of the day, and the outfits certainly did not provide for any kind of comfort at all. When they stop to have something to eat (Buck has killed an animal, cooked it over a fire, much to the dismay of GWLLABBI), they're attacked by people, I swear, are wearing the ape costumes from 2001. The apes use slings to hurl grenades at Buck and GWLLABBI.

Naturally, Buck and GWLLABBI are able to defeat the ape people, and Buck snags a grenade from them. Buck and GWLLABBI then discover a "fleet" of fighters Palance has been slowly accumulating in preparation for invading the Earth. GWLLABBI says he'll steal one and head to Earth to alert them of the danger, while Buck goes to rescue Wilma. When Buck points out that there's a good chance GWLLABBI could get hit by the energy leech, GWLLABBI replies that he'll go to trans-light speeds before they can bring the weapon to bear. (I'd like to point out that in this scene, GWLLABBI and Buck remove the hoods from their suits, revealing their hair plastered to their heads with sweat, while the next time we see Buck, his hair is neatly coiffed with no explanation as to where he managed to freshen up.)

Meanwhile, Palance, having failed to read the Evil Overlord list (and can I say, that I would have expected better of a Packard owner) sticks the slave girl who was with Wilma into a "lava room" which is like a natural sauna, so that she can slowly die. You can almost hear Dr. Evil saying, "I have an even better idea. I'm going to place her in an easily escapable situation involving an overly elaborate and exotic death." Wilma is forced to wear a scanty costume and watch Palance chortle over the impending destruction of Earth.

Buck spots the cave that that Palance is hiding in, and the theme music for the sequence as he sneaks his way into the cave is total 70s bow-chicka-wow-wow porn funk guitar. GWLLABBI takes off in the fighter, much to the dismay of Palance and his hencman as GWLLABBI appears to have gone to trans-light speeds before leaving the atmosphere of Vistuala. I'm no theoretical physicist, but I'm thinking that if you accelerate to trans-light speeds inside the atmosphere of a planet, there's going to be things like super-heating, and perhaps even the removal of large parts (like maybe all) of the planet's atmosphere, involved in this.

Buck gets captured after running into some florescent lights which suddenly appear out of the wall, and he and Wilma are tossed into the lava room with the slave girl. While Wilma comforts the slave girl (and there's some huge sapphic undertones to the scene), Buck figures out that if he can reach one of the pipes above him, he can crawl along it to get to an air vent and thus find a way to get to safety. Buck's solution for this is to stick a grenade under a helmet from a skeleton in the lava room, the grenade explodes, sending Buck into the air where he grabs a pipe and shimmies off to find a way to rescue the two women. (Can someone please tell me where the idea of sticking a grenade under a helmet/skull comes from? I know I've seen it before, with it being a Nazi helmet [or the people using a skull being prisoners of Nazis], but I can't recall where and its driving me nuts.)

We cut to GWLLABBI informing Dr. Heur that some bad shit's going down and GWLLABBI needs every fighter pilot they've got to fly to Vistuala to attack the enemy fleet. Dr. Heur doesn't like the idea, says they don't have very many pilots, but he will comply. When GWLLABBI lands, he discovers that the total number of available pilots, including Twiki and himself, is 12. They even got this old guy named "Gordon" out of retirement (he taught GWLLABBI how to fly, back at the academy) to pinch hit.

Buck reappears in the lava room, drops down a rope, and proceeds to pull the slave girl up, while we get several T&A shots of her. As Wilma's pulled up, we get many more T&A shots of Wilma. I know that according to the writers of the second season space vampire episode, Gerard always pushed heavily for the female starlet of the episode to be played by his "girlfriend of the week," so I have to wonder if Erin Grey didn't push for a "if you're going to show anyone's ass a lot in the episode, it'd better be mine" clause in her contract or something. There's obviously some tongue-in-cheek bits of dialogue between everyone in this sequence which has sexual overtones.

Buck and Wilma then decide to see if they can't steal a couple of fighters and do what they can to stop Palance's fleet which is due to be launched any second now. (BTW, watch when Palance goes before his people to announce that they're about to attack the Earth, there's an obvious edit as he walks in.) The slave girl says she's going to get her friend's in the underground resistance to try and strike at Palance.

Buck and Wilma exchange banter about how Wilma got "over excited" in killing the guards of the remaining fighters, and if you can't draw implications from their comments at the BDSM scene, you must have been raised in a monastery, because they're pretty transparent. The slave girl talks to her 6 (literally) friends about attacking Palance. We're also informed at this point that Palance's henchman is leading the fighter squadron, and that there's 100 fighters.

Okay, I know that they didn't have any kind of a serious budget for this show, but 100 fighters? Really? Couldn't they have just picked a larger number? I mean, after all, its not like in the battle sequence they could even be consistent in the footage they used of spacecraft being blown up, so you got Draconian fighters being destroyed, along with Palance's fighters. Its like the 12 fighters being sent from Earth, I don't even recall them showing 12 actors, so they could have gotten away with a different number quite easily.

Buster Crabbe (aka Gordon) manages to make an opening (and while all this is going on, Buck and GWLLABBI are making football references, including talking about "The Juice" [you know, pre-wife murdering, collector robbing OJ Simpson]) so that Buck can fly in and blow up the "quarterback" (Palance's henchman). There's some winking banter between Crabbe and Buck about Crabbe having done this before Buck was born, then the Vistualans rebel against Palance, carrying him off screen to do unmentionable things to him, no doubt. I'm not about to go back through all of it, but I'm 99% certain that's there's some "injoke" Mormon references with Palance's character, what with Larson being a devout Mormon and all.

Back on Earth, Buck, Wilma, and GWLLABBI are walking down a hallway when Buck asks Wilma if she's got plans for the night. Wilma says she does, so Buck asks GWLLABBI if he's free, GWLLABBI replies that he's the reason Wilma's going to be busy. Then GWLLABBI says something like, "And you're coming with us, Buck!" in such a manner (along with the responses from Buck and Wilma) that just scream, "Threesome!" Roll credits.

^I actually liked that episode.

And it was eight Earth fighter pilots (counting Major Duke Danton, why do you call him 'GWILLABI'?) who intercept the Vistulan force of 100 fighters, plus Buck and Wilma's two making 10 against 100.

What annoyed me was that the scanner image showed correctly the eight Earth ships plus Buck and Wilma's while showing only about 20 of the Vistulan force.

Budget should not have been an issue since it was only dots on a screen.

It also would've been more interesting if the small Earth force had lost two or three fighters (perhaps the pilots that were unnamed and never had any lines in the episode).

Note,while it might seem utterly ridiculous that Earth had all but 8 fighter pilots who could still fly in combat........maybe not.

This episode came right after the pilot episode where it was alluded to that Earth Defense Forces had a SEVERE manpower shortage when it came to combat pilots.

Also, early in this episodes first part, it makes it clear that going through a Stargate causes some kinds of disorientation and that most people "eventually get over it".

It might've been that relatively few of the combat pilots available had enough training and experience to transit the Stargate in order to launch the attack on Kaleel's armada.

And I did find it interesting that this episode alluded closely to something common in U.S. foriegn policy both in 1970s and today.

That is the local pro Earth/pro U.S. strongman, like the Shah of Iran or Mubarak in Egypt blindling following policies that make the local population hate him while religious figures gain more and more power.

Much like the Vistulan governor was doing in this episode while Kaleel gained power much like the Ayatollah or the Muslim Brotherhood.

He's the Guy Who Looks Like Albert Brooks, But Isn't.

Vegas in Space

Holy lack of imaginations, Batman! This episode is a waste of Caesar Romero's talents. We open with Buck and Wilma on a *spoiler alert* training mission where the new Draconian hatchet fighters are decimating the fighters of Earth, including killing Buck. (Flight sims having disappeared in the 500 years since Buck left Earth, these training flights, with apparently captured hatchet fighters, are done in space.) We quickly learn that Buck's okay, though, like Luke Skywalker, he's got some serious issues with his targeting computer.

We then cut to some Hot Chick 1 walking into her apartment. She notices that there's two messages on her video answer machine. (And can I point out how archaic a standard TV screen looks in this scene? WTF is up with that? 10 years prior to this, they were doing greenscreen matted shots for Star Trek, why couldn't they have done the same for Buck? Hell, with a little clever editing, you could have even gotten away with not doing the matting, and thus saved a few bucks. Then there's the whole "tape rewinding" sounds as she cues the messages up to play back. ) The first message is from the Proverbial Little Old Lady, who thanks Hot Chick 1 for the flowering plant (which is exceedingly rare). While Hot Chick 1 is changing (with implications that she's Buck's date), the second message comes on, its from Caesar Romero, who's her boss, he's apologizing to her, and telling her that she's got to flee immediately because of something that he's done. Before we can learn much more, she turns to the camera and screams because there's obviously an unknown intruder who's shown up and has grabbed her.

<insert commercial here>

Dr. Huer pushes a button and asks for Hot Chick 2 to please come into his office. When she arrives, Caesar Romero is there, dressed as a pimp (I think that they recycled elements of Adama's costume from BSG for this, which I suppose is better than reusing his Joker costume from the Batman TV series). Hot Chick 2 is introduced to Romero, and he proceeds to tell about an innocent digital programmer (Hot Chick 1) who has been kidnapped, because Romero's in the space mafia, and his rival has kidnapped HC1 in hopes of learning how to bring down Romero. There's lots of talk about exactly how corrupt Romero is, and how innocent HC1 is, and how guilty Romero feels about HC1 being kidnapped and taken to Sinola (AKA Space Vegas). Romero agrees to not only give up all the secrets of his criminal enterprises if they go rescue HC1, but he'll also turn over all the details he has on the new hatchet fighters. (The last part is HC2's idea.) You know, I'm sorry, but if you're in the mob (as Romero's character clearly is) snitching to save the life of some innocent person, even if they are hot, just isn't done.

<insert commercial here>

Buck is playing with his putter in his apartment. Wilma shows up to talk to Buck and is unfamiliar with the game. Buck describes it as being something important for astronauts from his time period to carry with them on their spacecraft, because it was significant for them to "hit a hole in one on the Moon" (nice Apollo 14 reference, wonder how Alan Shepard felt about it). Wilma's never heard of the game (Which Buck describes as a "20th Century game." I'll take "Writers who have no clue about the reference they just made" for $200, Alex.) Wilma says that Dr. Huer needs someone like Buck who is really good at "10 and 11." There's a bit of confusion, then Buck figures out that Wilma means blackjack, and Buck perks up like a meth addict who hears the words, "free Pseudoephedrine supplies" during a job interview.

Am I alone here in wondering how they could have a "Space Vegas" 500 years from now with a game of chance being blackjack at the place and Wilma not knowing what it is? There's a bit of a hint that Wilma might be pulling Buck's leg, but still. (Anybody know how many card games have been around for 500 years in basically the same form? I'm betting [no pun intended] that its not too many.)

There's some sexually suggestive banter, and then Buck and HC2 are in the flight hanger, getting ready to blast off. Twiki, and Dr. Theopolis (voiced by someone else, who sucks) show up carrying a tray with some poorly explained objects. One is a clear rubbery thing, which may, or may not, be an explosive, along with what looks to be a silver golf ball ([Mr. Rogers] Can you say telegraph the ending of the episode? I knew you could! [/MR]).

<insert commercial here>

We're given an establishing shot of a planet, surrounded by a large red gas cloud looking thing. Then we cut to an interior shot of what is obviously the ballroom shot from the pilot with a new ceiling matted in. We do a slow pan and show folks, including what appears to be an astronaut in his spacesuit, lounging in a room just off the main floor. The guy in the spacesuit (sans helmet) just sticks out like a sore thumb. Can you imagine any of the Mercury/Gemini/Apollo astronauts (the shuttle not having flown at this point) heading out to a bar around the Cape or Houston without ditching their suit before they left? (Don't tell me that regulations would have prevented this, the astronauts got away with lots of things that violated regulations. If they wanted to go cruising for chicks while wearing their spacesuits, they could have done it.) I can't see it.

Hot Chick 3, wearing a rather skimpy outfit clearly modeled after a disco ball, walks up to the bar where That 70s TV Villain is sitting and apologizes to him about the complaints customers have made about her. It seems pretty clear from the way That 70s TV Villain talks about her, she's a hooker. (She also has the biggest rack of any chick we've seen on the series to date, though she looks like she's fast approaching her "sell by" date, if you know what I mean.) There's some talk between That 70s TV Villain and one of his henchmen after HC3 walks off.

We cut to Buck and HC2 sitting side-by-side in a fighter. This seems important, as prior to this, if you had two people in a fighter (which often appeared to be a single seat design), there would be one in the front, and one in the rear, much like how you find pilots in the F-14, rather than the B-2. So, was HC2 banging the producer or something to get this treatment? Because Gerard didn't get it in the pilot episode, and was stuffed into the rear of Wilma's fighter. Given that Gerard got top billing for the show, one would think that if the tandem seat concept had been around from the beginning, he'd have been seated in it. And there's no reason for them to do it in this episode to satisfy Gerard's apparent raging ego, since all they would have needed to do would be to stick HC2 in the back seat, and that would have kept Gerard happy.

HC2 briefs Buck on who the key players are, That 70s TV Villain, Some Other Guy Who Apparently Mind Rapes People, and HC1. You quickly notice that the clips HC2 is showing Buck are exceedingly short, say a second or two, and are looped. Why they did this, I've no idea. There's a bit of pointless banter between Buck and HC2 about all of this and then we cut to (dramatic pause with suspenseful music) HC1 as That 70s TV Villain walks into the room where she's being held.

HC1 demands to know why she's being kept prisoner and starts throwing things in the opposite direction of That 70s TV Villain. HC1 starts to sob, and a sly smile barely graces the face of That 70s TV Villain. I feel compelled to point out that he's wearing a cape. Seriously. its the 25th Century and he's wearing a cape (coupled with his hairdo, he looks suspiciously similar to the comic book version of Ritchie Rich). Its sort of like the guy in Serenity saying, "He stabbed me with a samurai sword. How weird is that?"

<insert commercial here>

Buck and HC2 arrive at Sinola's version of TSA. (One wonders why they're not sent in disguise, but show up in their military uniforms. Perhaps its related to the reason why cartoon characters almost never wear different clothes for more than a few seconds.) The dialog goes something like this:

HC2: Gee those secret things Dr. Theopolis gave us will sure come in handy here on Sinola.

Buck: They'd work a lot better if we were on the other side of those screener things.

HC2: Don't worry, as I'm about to explain in this plot exposition, Dr. Huer thought of everything, except for a change of clothes. If you have an ID card, you can get into Sinola, and you've even got money that will allow you to buy everything but my love.

HC2 goes through the TSA checkpoint with no trouble. Buck is kind of freaked out by it, sticks his hand through the scanner, when it goes off, he pulls it back (since he's being menaced by TSA folks), feeds in his ID card, and walks through. He then promptly begins hiding the invisible plastic explosives all around the place. (Wait a minute. That's your plan? You're not going to scope the place out. You're just going to plant explosives around the door you happened to come in. Does anybody else see the problem with that?)

As Buck is planting the bombs, a guy who looks like Bud Cort sets off the alarms in the metal detectors. Immediately the caped (WTF is it with the capes?) TSA agents swoop down and snag Cort. His crime? He has what appears to be a BlackBerry phone concealed up his sleeve. The TSA goons drag him off while explaining that "Computers are illegal in Sinola." Is this before or after the MIT students wearing hidden computers managed to beat a bunch of casinos? I don't know.

Buck and HC2 "casually" chat about what happened, and HC2 reminds Buck that they're not supposed to know one another. (Gee, ya think maybe arriving together on the same fighter kind of blows that idea?) A light blue Marilyn Monroe looking alien walks past, Buck gets excited, but HC2 manages to crap in Buck's Wheaties by informing him that said alien is, in fact, a dude. I have to say that based on the kind of horn dog Buck has been portrayed as being up to this point, he shouldn't be turned off by this information. (Assuming, of course, that "Marilyn" doesn't have a bigger penis than Buck.)

That 70s TV Villain informs HC1 that Some Other Guy Who Apparently Mind Rapes People, is on his way there. HC1 manages to figure out what's going on (and that she's going to be killed) and is hugely upset by the fact (her performance resembles coke withdrawals, if you ask me). Buck strides onto the casino floor in some rather Renaissance looking clothes and HC3 immediately makes a beeline for him. (The waitresses in the casino appear to all be wearing CDs on their heads, BTW.) At the blackjack table (wherein no cards are dealt, only a computer giving out results on a poorly designed LED screen), Buck is winning like James Bond does, and HC2 is pissed because HC3 is ready for Buck to start tagging her right there on the casino floor.

HC2 manages to find That 70s TV Villain and tells him she thinks Buck is cheating. (WTF does any of this have to do with with finding HC1? Anyone? I've got no clue.) That 70s TV Villain thanks HC2 and informs her that if she doesn't have a drink with him, she'll not be able to leave Sinola. Buck get a bit melancholy as he talks to HC3 about what life was like some 500 years ago. HC3 suggests that Buck buy her freedom with all the money he's won, Buck declines, cashes his chips in, and heads back to his hotel room. That 70s TV Villain's henchman follows, and Buck proceeds to beat the crap out of him in a poorly edited fight sequence.

<insert commercial here>

Buck gives the henchman some truth serum (in a pill form), while That 70s TV Villain takes HC2 back to his place an informs her that she's going to give up the pussy, if she likes it or not. The henchman tells Buck how to find HC1 and tells Buck that to open the door he'll need "the key." I want to emphasize the business about "the key" now for one reason: There was a sort of anti-rock and roll episode later on in the season. At one point, a character drops something, Buck finds it, and asks The Lucky Extra Who Got a Speaking Part, what it is that he's found. The Lucky Extra Who Got a Speaking Part says, "Its an unlocking device." Buck has no clue as to what this is, and after a bit of back and forth with TLEWGASP realizes that its a key and says so to TLEWGASP. TLEGASP has no idea of what a "key" is, never having heard the word before. I know this, because it has stuck with me in all the years since I saw the series when it originally aired (I haven't caught it in rerun at all). So naturally, when a character in Buck Rogers uses the word "key" in the same sense that you or I would use it, then it grabs my attention.

Just when it looks like That 70s TV Villain is going to be able to put his penis in HC2, it turns out that the Mind Raping Dude is there. That 70s TV Villain sends HC2 back to her room to wait for him. (Odd that her room "just happens" to be directly across from Buck's and as soon as she enters, Buck, wearing his skintight suit [Male Camel Toe Warning] knocks on her door.) HC2 tells Buck that That 70s TV Villain is going to be there any minute and they can get the key from him. There's a brief fight and Buck takes out That 70s TV Villain's 'fro'd bodyguard (I mention this solely because the word "Token" keeps popping in my head when I see dude, him being one of the few black people to thus far have more of a role than simply walking by the camera).

There's a whole "harshing my buzz" sequence when Buck and HC2 head out to rescue HC1 and HC3 spots them. HC2 wants to stun HC3 and Buck is all like, "Listen, I know you don't like to hear this, but she's my backup pussy, so we's just gonna have ta save her ass, okay? I'd rather be doing you, but if I can't do you, then I needs to be doin' someone, and right now, she's it. Would you like me to be all, 'I'll fuck this tree' and then get splinters in my dick? Of course not. So let me keep this one, baby. A man's got needs, and you can't expect me to suffer when you ain't around, baby."

Buck, HC1,2, and 3 are in a fighter and manage to escape from Sinola in a confusing explosives detonated by Buck, sequence. They're pursued by hatchet fighters, and HC2 manages to defeat them, thanks to the tips given by Buck. We then cut to HC1 walking into Dr Huer's office, followed by Buck and HC1, and Caesar Romero proceeds to turn over his key (his word, not mine) to Dr. Huer. HC1 wants to know why Romero saved her, and it turns out that she's his daughter (a bit cliche, but at least it makes some sense). Romero hands over a micro cassette on the hatchet fighters and Wilma starts to ask Buck about the fact that HC3 is currently in his apartment. The subject then shifts to Buck winning over 9,000 credits. (IIRC, in the various classic Bond films, Bond won far more than that at the tables, so why couldn't Buck have brought home more?) Roll credits.

His character in Buck Rogers inspired the 'Brock Devlin' character in my version of BR.

Tuckerfan, you are going to give yourself metacarpal tunnel syndrome with these single ep reviews!!
