OMG OMG OMG OMG OMG

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)

I used to love the Tomorrow People too - though when you watch clips now - ha ha ha oh the 70s hair and the wooden UK kids' TV acting...And that Steve was a real David Cassidy look-a-like, wasn't he?

Got to say, Mark Pellegrino looks MADE for this part (or maybe vice versa)...

Maybe it's because I'm sitting in the ER at 4 am (for work) that I don't remember the original, but gosh the new one looks intriguing. And MP looks great for that part.

I don't know Tomorrow People... but I surely like the look of that remake! :D

Un-missable TV when I was at home - I didn't expect it to age well, so many things we look back at now are pretty corny! Times have changed so fast...hoping for the best for it.

Anyway, I'm surprised you hadn't heard about this re-make, it's been across my bows for a while now, hadn't realised they were as far along as having the trailers ready, but pretty sure it's been on the CW schedule for the new season for a while.

I knew there was an original series of but have never seen it. The reboot looks promising!

You've got my attention!

(I *really* have to find a good fall TV schedule so I can start planning my evenings.)

I'm excited too, I'll even admit to have the original series on DVD.

[kj-svala.livejournal.com]

wow, the preview for the show looks awesome. I think I need to add it to my *must watch* list!

MARK !!! *happy sigh*

ahhh, seems my watch list is growing again. I just found out that TNT is doing an adaptation of my favorite German Cop show, of course I have to watch it.
(to find out if the TNT show is as good as the original, of course ;D)

You know, I don"t need more pretty people to be distracted by, but maybe, for you... I will have a look, hmmmmm....:o

I hadn't know there was an original series, but you've definitely just gotten me more interested in the new series! I may have to check it out :)

[xenia-27.livejournal.com]

OMG! this looks really cool! I will watch it for sure. And Mark P. is as creepy as they come!

[dragonfly-sg1.livejournal.com]

I'm very excited about this one, too!

[rhoboat.livejournal.com]

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.

OMG, I had no idea this was on the horizon - I barely recognise it from the new treatment, but man, I remember the original, too!!

[sarren.livejournal.com]

Ooh, looks good. I kinda feel like I've watched the episode though, just from that promo.

I feel like a baby because I'm too young to have seen either of the other versions, but I am SUPER excited for the CW's version!! I'm also very excited to see my baby Luci <3 Even if its technically not him haha. I've been watching Arrow all day and every five minutes I'm like "Ruby, baby <33" aha.
