Flash Gordon (1980) & Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (1979): 80s Space Revivals

This week, we're revisiting the iconic characters of Flash (Ah-ah) Gordon and (Be-de-bede) Buck Rogers in our Space Opera series—only this time, it's THE EIGHTIES! Join us as we dive into the Dino De Laurentiis-produced Flash Gordon (1980), a colorful and campy sci-fi adventure with a legendary soundtrack, and Glen Larson's Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (1979), a show that brought the classic character into the disco era with a futuristic twist. We'll dissect the wild and wonderful ways these 80s reboots brought Space Opera heroes to a new generation and discuss their lasting influence on the genre.
