Description EDIT: finally added John to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the show!

whoops here I go, time to invest way too much love into the CGI remake of a 1960s marionette show

So I watched the TAG pilot episode launch last weekend with my dad, who grew up with the original show the first time it aired, as did I the multiple times it was repeated on ITV throughout my childhood. Mainly because of my dad I'm a huge fan of all the Gerry Anderson shows - our particular favourite was Captain Scarlet, which I distinctly remember watching on a Sunday afternoon before dinner. I was a bit apprehensive when I heard they were making a 'Birds remake for the 50th anniversary, especially after that disaster of a live action film back in 2004, but after the pilot episode I was fully converted and I am 100% stoked to watch the rest of the series. Yes, some of the human animation is a little bit clunky, but I love the new costume redesigns and the new characters they've introduced, and they've done a great job of modernising the whole thing without completely destroying the spirit of the old show. Ever so slightly lost my shit when Three came out of the pool. That's all I wanted and they did it perfectly QuQ and they kept the lemon squeezer in One's launch bay I'm so happy

I love these brothers so so much, really looking forward to seeing a modern interpretation of all their individual relationships. Virgil has always been my fave since I was little but I feel like 2015!Gordon is going to be a new favourite too.

This is awesome. I love it! My favorite personally is Alan. And at least here, John is much more useful this time than in the 60s show.

Thanks very much! Yeah, I'm glad they're using John a lot more so far - I remember him doing a lot of floating around in space being ignored in the original :'D

Here's the thing: John was Gerry Anderson's least liked character. He didn't like him and it was rumored that it had to do with how he looked. Though even I don't know.

At least in the new series, John is being used a lot more and I'm happy for it.

That's interesting, I've not heard that rumour before. Ah well, even if it is true, it's nice to see him in the new version!

Turns out it is true and that's how John got stranded on Thunderbird 5. And I agree, in the new version, John has a much more active role assisting the other Tracy brothers in their different rescues.
