4.0 out of 5 stars Pure nostalgia, 25 Feb 2003
By M. Finn - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
When I was a kid I hardly ever understood what was going on during this first series of The Tomorrow People broadcast in 1973; I was after all only 6 years old. Nevertheless it still fascinated me. I desperately wanted a jaunting belt, a friendly talking computer and a secret underground base. Thirty years on I can finally relive the nostalgia as well as understand the stories for the first time due to this box set of the entire first series comprising The Slaves of Jedikiah (5 episodes), The Medusa Strain (4 episodes) and The Vanishing Earth (4 Episodes).

Extras include:
Episode guide detailing every story ever made.
Cast profiles and character biographies.
Picture Gallery.
Episode reviews by Big Finish.
Special audio commentaries by members of the original cast.

My only criticism is that the extras were a little too few and a little too text based though that isn't uncommon with these type of products which have to delve back 30 years. Very enjoyable package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting first season, 19 Feb 2009
I've just watched the first season again and I've enjoyed all three stories. It's typical 1973 with it's glam rock feel with it's special effects, studio sets and cast costumes.
I didn't see the first season originally as I was only two. Despite it's age, it's very enjoyable. Despite a limited budget the stage sets work well here.
Cyclops and his ship with Jedikiah are highlights of the first story. Set in hyperspace 'Medusa Strain' is my favourite one as it's very future retro. Jedikiah is very good in this one too. 'Vanishing Earth' is also a fan's favourite. The creepy looking Spidron and haunted house theme works well.
It's the only season we see of Carol (Sammie Winmill). I thought she was rather good and it's shame she didn't continue. Kenny (Stephen Salmon) is no actor and wasn't given much to do. Ginge gets on me nerves,

5.0 out of 5 stars I love, Love, LOVE The Tomorrow People! :-), 20 Feb 2004
By A Customer
I remember this show from the early 1980's here in America on Nickelodeon. And I've missed it very much.

I was upset that it was to only be released to the UK. But thankfully it has been released to Region 0.

So this is what you (Americans) can do. You can play it on your American PC or buy a regionless DVD player (Or, I think, I player that plays both NTSC and PAL.) They are out there. You just have to look for them.

I own Season 1, 2, and just ordered 3 and "One Law."

I cannot wait to get those.

This was such a great show, and I am so glad to view them once again.

"Steven" and "Peter the Time Traveler" are my favorites.

"John" and "Mike" are second.

If you haven't ordered the TP DVDs, order them and relive the fun TV times of youth.

Enjoy! :-)
