Gerry Anderson's U.F.O. IMO is his finest work, and by a distance. Made in 1969 but set in the future 1980, which is the only thing to spoil an otherwise great show. Aliens visiting Earth to harvest human organs, up against a secret defense organisation armed with Moonbase, nuclear submarines and supersonic aircraft makes great drama.

Now here's a series I'm well familiar with. I bought the DVDs from A&E years ago.
I've thought that this is a series that could really benefit from a remake. The modern format of planned out serialized storytelling would add a lot to the foundation Anderson created.

Heard of it-never seen it. I see their film Doppleganger was the lead in for it.

It is really a fun show. I saw it when I was VERY young and recently rewatched the whole thing on ROKU. A few of the episodes are quite creative. Weirdest thing though; they never explained the purple hair.
