Cy-star based on Sylvia Anderson?

I'm sure I remember reading that Cy-star was a cruel caricature of Gerry Anderson's ex-wife Sylvia. The split seemed quite acrimonious. I wouldn't usually credit Fleet Street journalism with accuracy, but is there any truth in the story? Mrstonky (talk) 02:55, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Reception

How did the series perform at the time? I assume it was completely ignored by the critics, and perhaps because of the lack of repeats (and the characterisation of Hiro) it does not seem to have the same cult following as Captain Scarlet, Thunderbirds etc. Was it popular? -Ashley Pomeroy (talk) 21:27, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

It was with me - I was an avid watcher, and in my 20's at he time! :)Aloysius the Gaul (talk) 02:12, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

It was shown on Children's ITV, the tea-time kids' slot on ITV. ITV and BBC1 are about equally matched in viewers, the two main channels in the UK, and the BBC had their own kids' thing at the time too. It was popular as anything else, I think, from being in primary school at the time. I remember drawing a zeroid on a little rubber ball I had. I dunno what critics thought, it was only a show for kids in the late afternoon.

Captain Scarlet and the Thunderbirds' big success and acclaim came when the original kids who watched it grew up into their 20s and 30s, and became the people in charge of popular culture. Terrahawks might've turned out the same, but that time is around now, or the last decade or so, and things have changed. TV's not what it was, there's a million channels, and nobody seems to remember more than 5 minutes ago. Ultra-short-term nostalgia, they call it. 188.29.165.229 (talk) 10:07, 23 January 2014 (UTC)

"and also his last"

The article says that Terrahawks was Anderson's last series to use puppets. What about Space Precinct? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Ed Avis (talk • contribs) 15:09, 25 February 2013 (UTC)
