Buck Rogers, Captain Midnight, Stargate: Atlantis, Starman, Gemini Man, The Invaders, The X-Files, Tremors, Lost, Heroes, Nowhere Man, I Robot.

For the Buck Rogers buffs out there, it's the birthday of Kem Dibbs who had the short lived role of Buck Rogers in the 1950's TV series. Kem only lasted a few months before he was replaced, and then right after that the series was cancelled. But the nice thing is he got to play Buck first on TV.


Enjoy !!!
