Ep 32 – Joe 90 The Movie?

In 2003, news broke that Disney were set to make a live action feature film based on the Gerry & Sylvia Anderson Supermarionation series JOE 90. The project never came to fruition. Today Jack and Ben are on the case to discuss exactly how the adventures of W.I.N.’s most special agent would have translated toContinue reading “Ep 32 – Joe 90 The Movie?”

Ep 8 – The Evolution of Supermarionation

What makes a Thunderbirds puppet different from a Captain Scarlet puppet? The marionette stars of AP Films and Century 21 changed considerably between each of Gerry & Sylvia Anderson’s exciting television series. Jack and Ben are going to chart the advancements of the Supermarionation puppets and choose some of their favourites!

Ep 3 – The Wages of Supermarionation

Is there any crossover between classic cinema and the action adventure of Supermarionation? Jack and Ben take a trip to the jungle for a look back on “The Wages of Fear”, a 1953 action film remade in Supermarionation as “Colonel McClaine” in Joe 90, and also homaged in the Supercar episode “Keep It Cool.”

Cor. A look back at 2023.

LEGO Mac’s Jet Air Car (Joe 90)

Recently looking at my collection of Anderson LEGO vehicles, I realised that I now had a model of something from every Supermarionation series except Four Feather Falls and Joe 90. The options for both series were rather limited, and whilst I do have ambitions to build a LEGO Western town one day, Joe 90 seemed to be the more sensible route to go down right now for my next project. I basically had two starring vehicles to choose from, Professor McClaine’s car, or Sam Loover’s car. On the basis that Sam’s car is, to all intents and purposes, just a car, I had no alternative but to attempt to design and build one of the most bizarre vehicles the Andersons and Derek Meddings ever conceived: the unnamed Jet Air Car which Joe and his father use to travel the globe on dangerous missions for W.I.N.

Ep 23 – Season 1 Finale

It’s time for Jack and Katherine to reflect on their exciting adventure watching the first episode of every Gerry Anderson series. Standby for revelations, games, and a look into the future…
