Star Blazers.

Cool that's it! I loved that show...

I have the original season on DVD. You don't realize it when you're a child but the Gamilon's (blue guys/bad guys) were supposed to be the Americans and also loosely based on Nazism and the Star Blazers were supposed to be the Japanese. The two radioactive meteors the Gamilon's bombed Earth with were based off of the two bombs we sent to Nagasaki and Hiroshima. The original ship was called the Yamato which was a Japanese warship that was sunk by the U.S. (Ship is called 'Argo' in the American version)

What was the difference between the green guys and blue guys?  I seem to remember both.

The Gamilons were blue, I don't remember any green guys.

You guys are lucky.  We didn't have TV when I was growing up, because my parents thought it was a window to the demon worlds, allowing evil spirits to creep into our world.  For fun, we used to walk the streets preaching against the evils of alcohol, television, public displays of affection, and monkeys.  I still don't get the monkey thing, but we hated them just the same.

When other kids in my class would start talking about their favorite shows, I would often warn them about their eventual trip to hell, and how they should start repenting now, and start some more wholesome family activities like working the fields and polishing our black boots.  But sometimes, I would listen to what they were talking about, and then go share the stories with the horses and pigs we kept in the barn.  I'll tell you what, Buffalo George (our largest horse) sure got tickled about Charlotte's Web.

Sounds like a neighbor of mine growing up in Honey Brook.  Levi Stoltzfus.

Star Buck (Wilma... I'd still hit it to say I did it)

That's a coffee company dingus.  I think you're talking about Buck Rogers. 

And yes, Wilma would definately get a good shagging. 




This is her a little more recently and she'd still get it. 

[Susquehanna Birder]

The initial version of the show with Wayne Rogers & McLean Stevenson absolutely blows the later version away.

I feel that way, too. Toward the end of the series, it started taking itself way too seriously.

Really? Wow...I'd be all over that.

Star Blazers.

"We're off in outer space, protecting Mother Earth
To save the human race --- OUR STAR BLAZERS!"

"Danger lurking everywhere, though we know we've got to scare
Evil men with evil schemes, they can't destroy all our dreams..."

"We must be strong and brave, our home we've got to save.
We must brave the fighting seas, so Mother Earth will be at peace...."

"Through all the fire and the smoke we will never give up hope.
If we can win the Earth will survive, so keep peace alive with
OUR STAR BLAZERS."

I typed that from memory.  Someone please kill me now.

My favorite episode with her was when the vampires came aboard their ship and made her into one, she spent the entire episode with skimpy clothes and had this sexy voice to try to seduce Buck. I might have just unravelled the influence behind my first childhood masterbation experience.

Mine was to Jill Chernekoff when she anchored the 10 o'clock news on Fox.  Nutted all over the screen too.  The thing that sucked about it though was that as I was in the middle of my "release" they cut camera and switched over to her (male) co-anchor.   I stopped jerking off to live tv at that point.

Jeebus, I remember that one like it was just yesterday.

Um. You jerked off to a dude. Gross.

The co-anchor or Jill Chernekoff?
