My favorite was Terrahawks. Stroll on, Gerry Anderson, stroll on.

Thanks Gerry Anderson for the fun you brought me as a kid... and continued on to bring to my kids too  [thumbsup].

Whenever I take a look at the Thunderbird 2 on the garage shelf I'm reminded of that childhood fun.

F.A.B. Gerry Anderson, F.A.B.

I realize he was really creative, and that counts for a lot, and that for many his shows were a source of wonder and joy.  But I always thought his puppets were creepy as hell.

Maybe , but Tin-Tin Kyrano still turns me on (of course not just superficially, she's also a mathematician and engineer, you know)
