The new THUNDERBIRDS ARE GO is an excellent return. Yes International Rescue have morphed, no longer have strings and jockey around more than they used to. Yes on rare occasion the pacing and/or edits are a bit off. BUT more often than not the pacing is BANG ON! And the show has been getting better and better with each episode. Better, deeper characterisation, humanity, humour, wit and storytelling.
Characters = Excellent. Vehicles = Awesome. Story Telling = Just gets better & better. Parker = All the original Magic and more Grey Ninja! Virgil = Gotta love the Lumberjack shirt! Grandma = Brilliant You Cookie! Production = Excellent and improving all the time.
As an 'Avid Anderson' it is an enormous pleasure to see the THUNDERBIRDS are back with such vigour. In sometimes difficult, cynical, and depressing times, it is also great to see the ideas, outlook and invention of the 60's 'original' updated with such love, innovation and attention to detail. Rare, Brilliant, Classic Stuff!!!
