'Cruise Ship to the Stars'

by Cory Applebaum,
Patrick Hobby
and Michael Bryant 

Gil Gerard (Captain William ?Buck? Rogers), Erin Gray (Colonel Wilma Deering), Tim O'Connor (Doctor Elias Huer), Felix Silla (Twiki), Mel Blanc (Voice of Twiki), Eric Server (Voice of Doctor Theopolis), William Conrad (Narrator), Leigh J. McCloskey (Jaior), Trisha Noble (Sabrina), Brett Halsey (Cruise Ship Captain), Kimberly Beck (Alison Michaels), Patty Maloney (Tina the Robot), Dorothy R. Statten (Miss Cosmos), Timothy O'Hagan (Young Man)

Buck, Wilma, Doctor Theopolis and Twiki enjoy a cosmic cruise on the luxury space liner Lyran Queen. However, it is not long before their peace and quiet is rudely interrupted: Sabrina, a beautiful but deadly woman with super-human abilities, attempts to kidnap beauty-queen Miss Cosmos; Buck manages to thwart the abduction, and quickly befriends the attractive contest winner. Over the course of the cruise Sabrina tries again and again to capture Miss Cosmos, and despite the best efforts of Buck, Wilma and the others, she eventually succeeds. Buck?s investigations finally reveal the mystery woman?s true identity; however, unless he can find Miss Cosmos in time, she faces a gruesome death from the deadly beam of a dissection laser?

Cheater.    But you are right.

I do wonder if that is origin of the name of the Lyran race.

Cheater?  To a degree, but I remembered something about an overly aroused woman on a cruise ship chasing Buck around.  I knew it didn't start, to my knowledge with Star Trek.   Remember, when this came out I was 18, so therefor, I actually watched that show.

I didn't expect anyone to get it without online research (39 hits on google and the whole first page is right) unless they had happened to watch that episode recently - as I did.  I did think that Scipio with his Erin Grey fixation might be first.

Just joking about the cheater, which is why it was followed by a winking smiley.    Can't complain about the online research as I had just advised you to do exactly that for your computer building plans.

I knew you were joking.  No insult taken from it.  I just use the resources available, and happened to think that Erin Grey was hot.  Hence, why I watched that stupid show and put up with Twikki.

I watched the show to.  If you didn't think Erin Grey was hot I would think you were blind or gay.  Glad to know your vision is fine.
