A few months ago there was a lengthy discussion of the various Supermarionnation shows (Thunderbirds, Fireball XL-5, Supercar, etc.) produced by Gerry and Sylvia Anderson. Well, Gerry is now working with Christopher Burr on "Terrahawks", and it is currently being shown on WPIX (Ch. 11, NYC) at 3pm. I got to see a few episodes on cable, and there may be other independant stations that carry it. For those of you who can see it, do so. It is probably the best show available at that hour on any station! :-) (It sure beats "Voltron, Defender of the Universe" *gak*) Unfortunately, the series is not being shown in order: Episode Eight of the first season was followed by Episode 11 of the Second season, and then episode 6 of the second season. It probably doesn't matter too much, except for the character intro- duction (always the same villians!). If you can, catch it. The Zeroids (spherical fighting robots with minds of their own at times) are probably the show's greatest assest. -The Parker Hobbit -- decvax!sunybcs!hobbit or seismo!rochester!rocksvax!sunybcs!hobbit "Livin', Livin', Livin' in the twenty-first Century!"
