Gil Gerrard to be on Star Trek New Voyages

[mego73]

Pretty cool:

Gerard, Probert to Cameo on : Slice of SciFi

[wyldpny]

Wow...not sure if that is as much a good thing for the online Trek show or a somewhat sad statement about where Gerard is right now in his career

[UnderdogDJLSW]

He and Erin Gray are doing a cameo for the online Buck Rogers, too.

I think I will have to seach out VOAYGES it looks like the show I have wanted them to make when they made enterprise and the new reimagined film. Love the retro look just like Trial and Tribilations

man he looks old, I mean I know he is almost 70 but not having seen him in over 20 years, he just looks old.....I saw he had gotten so obese he had the gastric bypass surgery done.

[mego73]

It's not a good picture of him. I have seen other recent pics of him and he looks pretty good.

He doesn't look too bad since he lost some weight ...

better picture -- if it works

yeah, I don't know he looks so old. I saw an interview he had done about his bypass surgery and he did not look too bad so it must just be that photo like Mego73 said

[Thor]

He doesn't look bad to me considering his age. I'm rather glad to see him acting again.

Nice to see him in front of a camera again.. Would like to hunt down more info on that Buck Rogers series.

It's all good..

Buck Rogers: no people in it but the CGI is neat.

that looks cool and they are staying closer to the original material than Glen Larsons version did so it should be good. Too bad it is only a web show. A new movie or TV show done like this would be great

That video has me confused ......

So the New Voyages version is going to be based on the Buster Crabb Buck with Gil Gerard as just a guest star ?

[Nostalgiabuff]

no, the New Voyages thing is a Star Trek show. we went off on a tangent about Gil Gerard and Buck Rogers. The new Buck rogers will be based on the original comic strips, from what I understand. Gil Gerard and Erin Grey will play as Bucks parents so I would assume it is a one episode thing unless they do a lot of flashbacks.
