Where To Watch
Can you complete the names of all these forgotten 1970s sci-fi series?
Buck Rogers wasn't the only 1970s hero with a robot.
In the 1970s, the sci-fi of the Sixties faded away to unique and influential shows, including Buck Rogers in the 25th Century, Wonder Woman, Battlestar Galactica, The Six Million Dollar Man and many more.
As if these memorable additions to the sci-fi canon weren't enough, the decade also gave us a bunch of grand attempts at even bigger ideas within the genre, traveling to the future, outer space and between dimensions - sometimes with a monkey!
Below, we've given you a little background on some of these forgotten Seventies wonders. See if you can complete the name or if your memory for obscure 1970s sci-fi has drifted away like so much cosmic dust. Good luck!

I never heard of any of these shows and still got 10/11. I was busy in the 70's.
No time did not pollute my memories. I was working 12-16 hour days. Little time for TV.

On #2, not only did Ghost Busters star Larry Storch, but his F Troop co-star Forrest Tucker as well.
Yes I do remember them both on the show and they sang the theme song as well.
9/11
9 out of 11. I'm kicking myself for second guessing myself on the two I missed.
It's weird how many of those I remembered watching.
Wasn't Space Academy somehow connected to Jason of Star Command?

I think Man from Atlantis had to be one of the dumbest shows on T.V. Thank god it only lasted one season.
11 out of 11. I had to guess on 2 or 3.
9/11, some of these I never heard of.
