Boxey and Buck

"Say, Boxey!" From the Chicago comic con last Saturday. Noah Hathaway (left) and Gil Gerard (right).Noah was Boxey on the original "Battlestar Galactica". He was the kid who hung around with the robot ape/dog. Gil Gerard was in the "Buck Rogers" TV show. Both were signing autographs. The new "Battlestar Galactica" only had a Boxey character in one episode, and later had boxing instead. The woman from "Buck Rogers", Erin Gray (who played Wilma Deering) was at the convention too, but in a different row far away from Buck.

NO WAY! I'm shocked and flabbergasted. Honestly, I would've never known this had I not stopped by your blog.

About Buck or Boxey?

Sweet! I would have enjoyed meeting them. I was a fan of both shows.

Both! I couldn't have guessed who Boxey was OR Buck.

Well, I would not have recognized Boxey at all. But if my picture were better, you would have recognized Gil Gerard/Buck Rogers easily.

Ha! What fun!
Right now I am getting a kick out of seeing Will Crusher... no longer a kid... playing in Eureka as an arrogant snot scientist.

OK, I reviewed your debate again at Contra O'Reilly, and became a fan.

Well, I think I just gave away my age, lol!

I seem to remember Erin Gray as quite bangin' hot (wasn't she in "Silver Spoons", too?). Feel free to upload a picture of her, if you'd like to.

I was fond of Buck's robotic sidekick, Twiki..the brain of a
Cray supercomputer and the voice of a Mel Blanc. 'Er, Buck, that's not a good idea...biddi biddi biddi"

I liked Twikki more than Muffet, who was Boxey's robot sidekick.
