Yep - childrens TV in the 70s could be really creepy - do kids today hide behing the settee during 'new' Doctor Who? (serious question by the way...)
Marco - Marine Boy! You know I was beginning to think I imagined that as no-one I know around my age remembers it at all! - with the oxygen chewing gum!

Those are current shows I like.Never heard of any of that, Neil...
Mind you, I watch very little TV nowadays. My TV 'heyday' was defo in the 70s/80s
Marco.
I watch them on a Monday night 9 till 11 and Tuesday 8 till 9 and if Defying Gravity grabs me I will watch it too on a Thursday night.
The thing I hate about a lot of new American shows is they get the chop before they get finished. Several interesting Sci_fi shows in the last few years got stopped to soon Invasion Earth, Invasion, Surface and Odyssey 5 (now that was a clever show)

Its more than that as it also blends CSI and 24 too. Seems to be the best way to survive getting the chop.
