Ok. So..OMG OMG because...because

OMG! They're remaking The Tomorrow People!!!!! \o/\o/\o/

*deep breath* So, here's the thing. The original Tomorrow People was like my FAVOURITE SHOW IN THE WORLD when I was growing up. I WAS ADDICTED! (ha! nothing new it would seem). It would probably be the first show I "fanned" (along with Dr Who). I imagined all sorts of scenarios in the show and if there had been such a thing as an online fandom I would have been THERE! CRAZY LOVE for it. As a kid I loved the story of a "secret" race of future humans with cool abilities who looked out for each other (lots of bromance too! :D)

Check out the early titles. SO COOL! (well, dated - but cool. It was made in the '70s after all). That music brings back so many memories. *happy sigh*

ARGHHHH!!! Mark Pellegrino is in it and he's EVOL!!!! \o/ Stephen was always my favourite character but I can see lots of other characters that may fast become my favs! I may be jumping the gun, but DAMN!! Hello new fandom if this hooks me like the old one did! \o/ (ha! And no, it's not the bondage in the first few seconds of the trailer that has me so excited. Well...not much..;D)

Hee! I admit I've only seen a few episodes of the Original Series. I watched more of the New Series (90's version), and have that all on DVD.

As for how I saw the Original Series eps, I got them on VHS from another fan in 2001. There was an email list at the time along with a set fan websitea which was how I got in contact with that fan.

That email list is STILL ACTIVE today and has been super busy ever since the rumors of the latest remake started popping up.

Oh there was a 90's version?! How did I not know that?!

And wow - it's great to hear there's an active email list from way back when. :)

I think there should be a pretty strong fandom for this one. :))
