TV Review: Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons

See the source image

Release date: September 29th 1967 - May 14 1968 (1 series. 32 episodes).

Story: The Mysterons. Sworn enemies of Earth. Possessing the ability to recreate and exact likeness or an object or person. But first they must destroy. Leading the fight against them is one man fate has made indestructible. His name... Captain Scarlet.

My thoughts: This is a amazing show. The puppetry is great and the special effects are out standing. Even the Mysterons themselves are among some of the greatest villains on television. Even though they are unseen, their voice is all that you need. And also they (unlike most villains) have a reason for being what they are. Earth had attacked them when they saw something that resembled a gun and opened fire at the Mysterons without hesitation. So the humans have brought this upon themselves. I would recommend this for those who like classic tv shows and sci fi fans alike.

My score: Five stars.
