The Tomorrow People 6. ==================
I remembered the earlier shows, probably from 1973 when it first aired through to 1979 when it initially ended. Watching it again on DVD was very very enjoyable and to be honest quite refreshing. It was at the time an imaginative program and held a 70's quaintness. Remembered nothing of the second incarnation of the show, 1992 - 1995 and again nothing of the third reinvented show from 2001 - 2007.
You follow some rare talented humans as they 'Break out' and change from normal humans to the next stage in human evolution. They have abilities such as telepathy, telekinesis, and teleportation.
They have adventures inventing new technologies and fighting evil villains on this planet and from other galaxies. There are a few surprises along the way.
1973 - 1979 Series Series 6 ======= Episode 1: The Lost Gods: Part 1 A new tomorrow person is discovered but must be saved before she is sacrificed to the gods.
Episode 2: The Lost Gods: Part 2 Mike comes to the rescue but the monks think he is a god.
Episode 3: Hitler's Last Secret: Part 1 Has Hitler risen from the grave or been brought forward through time?
Episode 4: Hitler's Last Secret: Part 2 Hitler must be stopped by the tomorrow people.
Episode 5: The Thargon Menace: Part 1 The Thargons arrive on a deserted island and the tomorrow people must act quickly to save the world from slavery.
Episode 6: The Thargon Menace: Part 2 The Thargons are repulsed from the Earth, quite literally.
The show was a kids fun Sci-Fi show but later series tried to move to a more teenage and even an adult viewing audience, it never really worked.
The plots to each show are quite good and move along at a fair pace. The dialogue however at times is not too good and in places awful. The science would not stand up to scrutiny today but at the time it was fun stuff. The actors all gave great performances and held the show together and the plot lines where also pretty good, if not great.
All in all worth a watch and worth it for the nostalgia alone. A fun Sci-Fi romp that you will smile at whilst watching.
Recommended.
