Its only a matter of time before the new show takes off. And I've noticed that Captain Scarlet has been revised, as far as I know, in appearance.
Do we even know what the mysterons will be, like the appearance of the rings. Or something along those lines.
So far alot of the old american shows have blown it, as far as revisal. Take Battlestar Galactica, for instance. Come on a female Boomer and Starbuck, please. Its bad enough she was smoking a cigar.

For once, and I mean once, I am fairly confident that the show will be pretty good. It's not going to be a patch on the real thing-but I think it'll be alright. I'm looking forward to it. Is it still on for September? or I wonder if that's been put back again.

I was the first show of the new CGI series last Saturday.
It's not bad. Though the hair is a little lacking. It's filmed in Hypermarionation, according to the credits sequence.

I'm really enjoying it so far. Might be heresy to write this, but I think the scripts are much tighter and more dramatic than the originals. Today's episode had three plots that would have had an episode each in the old days. Just wish they'd show the episodes complete and in one block rather than stopping in the middle and having those pointless recaps - we only saw this fifteen minutes ago, do they really think their audience is so thick they've forgotten it already?
Oh, they do?
Ah...

Ah, it's a Saturday morning kids TV show, what you gonna do?
I missed it this morning though. I was expecting it at 10:30 like it was last week, but it wasn't on then. But they expect me to watch the whole 2 hour show, just so that I can see Scarlet?
Oh, they do?
Right...

I agree with all of that Jimster.
Is it just me, or did today's episode ("Swarm"?) have a different style to the previous ones?
