The Tomorrow People 8.
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.

1973 - 1979 Series
Series 8 =======
War of the Empires ~~~~~~~~~~~~ Episode 1: Close Encounter The Tomorrow people must fight a war on 2 fronts as the Thargons and the Sorsons attack, will they be stretched too thin to be able to cope?
Episode 2: Contact The Sorsons leave and the Thargons take control of Earths fate as the Tomorrow people find themselves in jail.
Episode 3: Standing Alone The sorsons have not left but instead try to form an alliance with the US in order to battle the Thargons.
Episode 4: All in the Mind The tomorrow people are caught between the Sorsons, the Thargons and the US as they try for peace witht he aid of the Galactic Commitee. What will Earths fate be?
This was the last of the 'old tomorrow people' they would return but with a different line up.
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.
Advantages: Kids Sci-fi Fun Disadvantages: Quite dated.
