Ruin the franchise? What franchise is there to ruin?

I suspect that most people under 50 do not know who Buck Rogers is.

Probably couldn't watch 5 minutes of it now. Hope they don't fuck this up.

It's on right after classic Star Trek, so I watched a few minutes once out some some sense of nostalgia. It was abysmal. I can't believe that, even though I was a kid at the time, I watched that.

I remember during the original run when they added that Hawk character and revamped the casting was just about the time I bailed.

Clooney can only improve on it, frankly.
