Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons

Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, often shortened to Captain Scarlet, is a British science fiction television series created by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson and filmed by their production company Century 21 Productions for distributor ITC Entertainment. It is one of several Anderson series that were filmed using a form of electronic marionette puppetry dubbed "Supermarionation" combined with scale model special effects sequences. Running to thirty-two 25-minute episodes, it was first broadcast on ITV��regional franchises between 1967 and 1968 and has since been transmitted in more than 40 other countries, including the United States, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan.

Set in 2068, Captain Scarlet follows the "war of nerves" between Earth and the Mysterons, a race of Martians who possess partial control over matter. When a misunderstanding, causes human astronauts to attack their city on Mars, the Mysterons vow revenge and launch reprisals against Earth. These are countered by Spectrum, a worldwide security organisation. In the first episode, Spectrum agent Captain Scarlet acquires the Mysterons' self-healing power of "retrometabolism" and is thus rendered "indestructible", being able to recover from otherwise fatal injuries. In this way, Scarlet becomes Spectrum's top asset in its fight against the Mysterons.

Gerry Anderson core. Something is always super exciting about seeing all the vehicles and also the sound effects for them are ingrained into my core being.

UFO and Star Trek were the first science fiction I remember watching as a kid. I recently rewatched it, and was surprised how well done it was, with a complex ands well developed story.

Captain Black (Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons)

Captain Black is the fictional nemesis of Captain Scarlet and the primary recurring Mysteron intermediary in the 1960s British Supermarionation television series Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons and its 2005 computer-animated remake, New Captain Scarlet.

"Black" is a codename; in the original series, the character's real name is never revealed (although in tie-ins he is named as Conrad Turner), while in the remake the character's tombstone indicates that his real name is Conrad Lefkon. The character's transformation from human to Mysteron agent occurs on Mars in the first episode of each series ("The Mysterons" and "Instrument of Destruction, Part 1")

To this day 'Nearly Virgil, nearly' is a thing my family just quote at each other. You did such a good job capturing this scene.

A homage to my fave scene from the episode “End of the Road”.

… Poor Alan.

La serie Space: 1999 (1975-1977) contó con el diseño de producción de Keith Wilson y con los modelos construidos por Brian Johnson. El diseño de producción de Space: 1999 ha envejecido bien, con piezas de su tiempo (los 1970s) y propuestas que lucen contemporáneas.
