Pink is definitely not the new black...

Just because someone was male in the old series dosen't mean they can't have a sex change in time for the CGI one...
(classic_s)

The Angels can't hit massive, slow moving jets while they're still on the runway...(Winged Assassin)
(cgi_logo)

Destiny Angel annoys me no end...
(classic_s)

The Mysterons have a marvellously low success rate..
(classic_s)

Captain Blue thinks he's smarter than the rest of us, and that the Mysteron threats are too cryptic, so he has to decode them...
(cgi_logo)

Captain Scarlet can be annoyingly soppy...
(cgi_logo)

Change isn't always a bad thing... (Ochre, Green)
(cgi_logo)

People can save the earth from a dangerous alien race, and still have time to have relationships...and flirt...

Destiny Angel isn't tickleish - in a very tight uniform she didn't notice that there was a nasty robot bug inside with her

That after the original and CGI shows the Mysterons still have 'powers we cannot hope to understand'

even Colonel White has a bit of the thing for the girls (Model Spy)

Dr Fawn has an unhealthy obsession with first Captain Scarlet, the Lt. Green.

Captain Black wouldnt get caught if he stood in the middle of Cloudbase shouting 'cooey, here I am' (mind you by the time he'd finished speaking the whole of Spectrum [or who is left of them] could have piled on him)

Being codenamed Brown, Indigo or Black is bad luck.

The Mysterons know we can hear them

The Mysterons always tell us its them, I think we're used to their voice by now.

Each episode must end in a philosphical line

I have learned never to gamble-or go anywhere they say "rien a va plus".

I've also learned that Gazelles etc are so much bigger than I'd ever have thought-especially when their hides are pinned to walls.

Codenames applied to females have to end in Y and mean their real names are never used again!

Unless it is NCS, of course - when it makes you wonder why anyone has a codename... :wink:

(Here's an oldie but a goodie....and most obvious!);

Initiative should never clash with discipline!! :wink:

The Mysterons have pharyngitis...

Never to bomb a Martian complex without permission.

If you're Grey, little or nothing to do.

Ok, lieutenant, let 'em have it!"

In the future, everything will be insanely explodable.

Here's what I've learnt from watching OS and CGI Captain Scarlet

1. Tiempo is the Spanish word for time.

2. One day in the future I can have a holiday on the moon.

3. Never wear a red uniform.

4. NCS Destiny Angel would seriously annoy me in real life.

5. Never have an relationship with your dead fiance's best friend as he might come back.

6. A old Nokia wouldn't look out of place (see NCS episode 'Rain Of Terror')

7. Rain can kill meerkats.

8. Anyone can be a Mysteron.

9. How NOT to drive.

10. The truth is out there.

11. I might be related to OS Colonel White (we have the same surname :lol:

)

12. Never drink and fly.

13. Skybase has something similar to Thunderbird 2.

14. Skybase and Cloudbase were the basis for the Valiant that appeared in Doctor Who.

15. I can have a fantastic career as a fighter pilot.

NCS:

1. everyone owns a gun.
2. They are all good looking.
3. Some characters still have mushy peas for brains.
4. English language is still going strong.
5. Vehicals get better and better.
6. Never trust anything that has the colour green. (excluding Serena)
7. Blowing up things is easy. Just point and shoot.
8. There are more intelligent life forms.

It all evens out. No 8 could make up for the deficiencies of No 3. :lol:

A few more anyone?

1. Guys can wear a pink uniform and not look camp.

2. The average female dress size is a UK 8-10 in the future.

3. Mars is still off limits in the future.

4. There is actually life on Mars.

5. TV Cameras are good for target practise.

6. The Harrier Jump Jet has a successor.
