I've always been a fan of the Andersons' somewhat kitschy but cool puppet Sci-Fi. Most of it is because of the sheer artistry that went into their now-legendary shows. My favorite? Captain Scarlet. The classic from 1966-67 was a neat idea when it was first concieved. Despite limitations, it was a super-cool show.
In 2005, Scarlet was the perfect candidate for a revival, and he got a fantastic one--no strings attatched. CGI animation (which is quite high quality for television) did the good Captain justice, and some of the stories were penned by Phil Ford (who also worked on DOCTOR WHO). Due to expense and the material not being suitable for the youngest set (it is quite violent!), there were only two series made. The story is quite unresolved at the end. Still-- NCS breathes new life into a classic, and Scarlet translates amazingly well for a modern audience. S.I.G!

Well its ok the only thing I diden't like was the SPV & Saloon car
I liked the old ones better apart from that it wasen't that Bad
the starts are to long
it would be good if you can get it in other zones
here in New Zealand we are zone 4 lackly I was able to get
a multi zone dvd player or i would have to send it back
Still can't beat the old Scarlet

This is the complete season 1 and 2 of Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet. Well done Gerry. Very enjoyable. Leaves you wanting more. Great character development and story depth. Great attention to detail. Great CGI.
Takes a while to warm to the new voices. But rewarding once you get there. Addictive entertainment.
