Space Rockers is the nineteenth episode of Season 1 of Buck Rogers in the 25th Century. It premiered 21 February 1980.

Summary[]
Buck becomes involved with a futuristic rock group named Andromeda when a series of riots break out at all of their concerts. Buck's investigation finds that the band's manager, Lars Mangros, has been secretly encoding the group's music with behavior-altering sounds that create the riots. Buck is forced to convince Andromeda not to play at galactic-wide broadcast from the space station Musicworld, to prevent Mangros from causing chaos throughout the galaxy.
Trivia[]
- Andromeda plays a song called "Odyssey, Part 1" by Johnny Harris. It was released as a 7" vinyl single in 1980. The B-side was an alternate version called "Odyssey, Part 2".
- Named by Internet Review of Science Fiction as "The Worst Science Fiction TV Episode Ever"[1]
