Pictures of new Thunderbirds reboot revealed: http://www.digitalspy.co.uk/tv/news/...-brothers.html
Warning - may ruin your childhood. No wonder there was talk on here of ITV putting it on (aka hiding it away) at breakfast time. Post midnight might be more appropriate. Early days but looking like a big opportunity lost. They may need to draft in Jonathan Frakes at this rate. ![]() Despite the early renewal if this bombs who will be the first media source to headline - Thunderbirds are Gone. |

BTW in answer to the Midsomer Murders question - yes, it was a repeat, of the anniversary special where they (sort of) crossed over with various Scandi dramas such as The Killing and travelled to Copenhagen to investigate.

Crikey, the old puppets were more lifelike and probably more likeable than that.

Seeing as it's on CITV will today's audience be more accepting of how they look than older viewers? They are the target demo.

It was a childrens programme then and its still one now, don't know what the fuss is about.
Given that Lady Penelope has just got a best actress Oscar nomination then maybe ITV will be reviewing their Citv plans again! |

Though at the time, the show was greatly ridiculed by the wonderful Pete and Dud

Does anyone happen to know the consolidated ratings for Silent Witness for the first couple of episodes?

It's becoming clear why Thunderbirds has been binned off to CITV now.

Considering it's a CG animated show, I don't get the complaints about it not being life like, it's not meant to be and these are only stills, we've yet to see any footage.
Plus people do realise that the show was commissioned by CITV and ITV, ITV must think the show is good to order 26 more episodes, you would not do that if you thought the show was a dud. |

Seriously though, Citv (last time I checked) completely flounders behind cbbc and cbeebies so an original commission of this profile will help drive people to the channel (and hopefully kids too) so in that respect it doesn't matter what it rates as it serves it's purpose- However, for fans of the orginal and the cast they've assembled means an early evening slot trading on nostalgia would be silly not to try, at least for the first run- A 5.30 Thunderbirds/ 6 The Chase/ 7 BGT would work quite well, at least better than bond for the 956th time

i'm assuming that the switch to a 28-day window has upset the apple cart somewhat!

How did we miss this? Scrappers is moving to BBC2. I think some BBC1 programmes should be considered for a move to BBC2 instead of the axe.
