I have known what you all know for 60+years,we were unbelievably lucky to be born at a time when we got to follow GAs career for over a decade of fantastic shows,we were spoiled for kids TV in general in the 60s,but GA was always the pinacle and we were never disappointed,what a time to be alive,and we were also living through the greatest explosion of pop music and maybe did`nt realise it then,and we still had`nt reached the 70s.If anyone has access to a time machine give me a shout.

When I was a district nurse, I had one patient a lovely lady with MS who had a great sense of humour. When we were hoisting her out of bed and across into her wheelchair, using the electronic ceiling hoist, she always wanted us to put this theme on full volume on the CD player, and it was an absolute blast, craziest part of our day!!

I'm really glad to hear that. There is no reason why it shouldn't appeal to every kid, in one way or another. It's a beautifully crafted show with great storylines, characters and equipment. I'll have to ask my sister what she liked best from this time. I do recall her watching Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and other Supermarionation stuff, but I think that's because that's what was on at a certain time and we were all sat in front of the TV together back then. I think she was probably more into Top Cat, Tom & Jerry, The Banana Splits and Magic Roundabout TBH, but now you mention it I really must find out. 😎🚀

Found this also today. It was aired also in the early 80's as a rerun on Dutch television for kids Pure optimistic show with an epic theme you never forget. We were lucky as a child to have such shows. The poor kids today just have dark pesimistic shows. but for 5 minutes i felt myself a child again, glued to the screen thinking how is international rescue to solve the problem this time.

I am Black, female and a Yank and “Thunderbirds” was my favorite series as a child, so you are not alone, Crystal. I’ve been involved in the fandom for decades and even wrote much of the trivia for the Pop-Up Video version shown in the US, plus I wrote the Tracy boys bios on the “Best Of Thunderbirds” DVD. I am such a geek that I even bought a seat from TB3 from the live action film and had it flown from London to Los Angeles!

The first time I ever heard of "Thunderbirds" was when the 2004 movie came out. I was 13 or 14 when it came out. My mom told me it was based off of a TV show she grew up on that had puppets in it. Never saw the movie because I wasn't sure if it was going to be good, and I'm glad I didn't. Now, in 2020, I look up the series and see what my mom meant by the puppetry of the show. This is one of the coolest forms of puppetry I've ever seen, and I wish they continued some shows like that. And the music! I'm crazy about music from shows, movies, games, etc., so this was up my alley. If they ever decide to make another "Thunderbirds" movie, I can only hope that it revolves around all the family and have the plotline make more sense. That would be awesome.

Man, I loved this show - every Saturday. My sister and I called this theme "the glory music". When I was like 4 or 5, I lived and breathed Supercar. A few years later it was Thunderbirds and I was totally obsessed with TB2. Many years later watching Top Gear, I was surprised to hear Jeremy Clarkson referred to TB2 "the one everybody wanted to see". Even today I am in awe of the work they did. The best thing the U.S. ever imported from the U.K. was "Thunderbirds". :)

This orchestra was amazing and brought me back to being five again. I am still amazed at the warmth with which the puppets were put together to this day, as this always showed in the episodes I've seen as a young boy in the States in the '60s. Thus, the shows will still stand out years from today because of the hard work put into the production of the show from storyboarding all the way to paying attention to the smallest detail and making sure these have a consistency that few other shows have had. Incidentally, I've also enjoyed Space: 1999, and that was also well written with a great cast.
