- The opening episode "Awakening" was originally released as the theatrical movie Buck Rogers in the 25th Century (1979). For television, the movie's sensual opening credits were removed, a scene showing Tigerman being killed was omitted, some dialogue was toned down, and several scenes were added including an epilogue setting up the television series. The movie was also re-edited into a two-parter for syndication.
- In the two-part re-airing of "Awakening", the voice of the Draconia's PA announcer was changed from William Conrad to Vic Perrin - just one line of Conrad's original voice work as the Draconia's PA announcer was left in, ordering the shipping of Buck Rogers' frozen shuttle aboard the Draconia.
- The episodes "Planet of the Slave Girls" and "Flight of the War Witch" were initially aired as two-hour specials and were later re-edited into two-parters. The 2004 DVD release retains the original two-hour format for these episodes.
