"Buck Rogers was very formulaic....
When I wrote for The Incredible Hulk, even though it was a big cartoon show, the producers were very concerned with character.
They felt it was important to remember David Banner was a man fighting his own inner demons.
It was really a heavy character show.
They never did anything close to that on Buck Rogers, and I think that's one reason the show didn't last.
One of the reasons Star Trek is so popular and Hulk did well is that those shows were character-based."
-Craig Buck, Starlog Magazine #232 (p72)-
Craig Buck was a writer for Buck Rogers In The 25th Century (S1, E19, Olympiad). He also contributed Babalao (S3, E10) to The Incredible Hulk as well as the Season Three opener Metamorphosis for the enduring hulk of a series.
