Brand new 'Thunderbirds' are go!
By Thunderbirds staff

Starting Monday, September 30, we'll have new "Thunderbirds" episodes never previously seen on TechTV playing at our new regular premier time of 3:30 p.m. Eastern, Monday through Saturday.

Also, on "Thunderbirds Thursdays" you'll be able to see your favorite International Rescue team during prime time -- a double shot at 9 and 9:30 p.m. Eastern. For these special prime time spots we'll be starting all over with episode No. 1, so you can see the whole series in sequence.

So stay tuned, both for the new episodes and for "Thunderbirds Thursdays." We have lots of great supermarionation coming your way.

"New" as in having not been seen on TechTV yet.

I tried watching Thunderbirds on TechTV, but I found the "popup-video" style commentary very, very annoying. Plus with them splitting the episodes in half, I very quickly just stopped recording/watching them.

With a PVR, the splitting the episodes in half could be worked around, but the popup-video crap was just too annoying.

I have to agree with the pop-ups. However, AFAIK, Thunderbirds have NOT aired in my area in at least 15-20 years beyond a short-lived badly-hacked (to meet broadcast standards) version that aired on Fox Kids a few years ago.
