Reasonable Doubt, by Mike K.
July 18, 2004
Okay, okay. So this isn't the same as the Gerry Anderson puppet programme from the 60s. 21st Century kids are more sophisticated. The 60s TB was perfect for the 60s. Modern production techniques should not be reserved for hi-tech slashfests like the Matrix series. this is a 21st Century TB! I loved the 60s series; I still do. But I won't stand in the way of a remake of Fireball XL5 or Supercar, either (hint, hint out there). Just leave Captain Scarlet alone!
