That was an amazing opening credit scene - a lot like a James Bond movie opening.

I wonder why Buck Rogers was so less ambitious a project than Battlestar Galactica. The production values are similar, but fail in comparison to Battlestar.

Nice production values. TV intros used to rock. Six Million Dollar Man being the gold standard.

That credit scene was from the theatrical version and while it was great for a pubescent boy to see, it didn't do me any favors... Mom decided we were going home after the title sequence. I recall her starting to get us evacuated right after the Princess Ardala crotch-shot. I only got to watch Buck with the tamer TV titles.
