Gerry and Sylvia Anderson brought us so many great shows:

Fireball XL5
Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons
Stingray (My favorite of the Supermarionation)
Thunderbirds
[Another one - name??]
UFO (Favorite)
Space: 1999

I suspect all of these are fond memories for those of us old enough.

I have boxed DVD sets of, um... several of the above. Great for snowy, dreary days.
