DVD Reviews of The Tomorrow People - Set 1
DVD Review: Brings Back Memories
Summary: 5 Stars
I remember watching this series on Nickelodeon when I was a little kid. I'm thrilled to be able to see it again. It is dated, but still a lot of fun! For a campy, melodramitic good time, check out this series. It's all about the "tomorrow people," a group of teenagers who have become the first members of the next stage of human evolution. They have special powers and one weekness -- they can't kill or use their powers for evil.DVD Review: The Tomorrow People
Summary: 2 Stars
The tomorrow people is a 1960's style. Everything is peace and love related and child like. A child might be able to get through the show.DVD Review: FANTASTIC!
Summary: 5 Stars
I could watch these over and over again. I bought the entire set and have not been disappointed whatsoever. The effects are totally sub-par and camp, but to me that's what makes it all the better. DVD Review: Don't just walk away- RUN!!!
Summary: 1 Stars
Awful, just awful. Idiotic scripts. Incredibly bad acting.
Where can I go to get my money back? And the time wasted?
DVD Review: An old series just for nostalgic
Summary: 2 Stars
Well, I was a child when I used to adore this Brit series.
The thing is that we now live in a very high qualified age of visual standards and Tomorrow People seem to be very very na?ve in many ways.
Tomorrow People however handled the idea of evolved humans but with more intelectual powers (instead of the mutant ones now en bogue in movie industry).
Before buying it I suggest to take a look at just one of the chapters before decide if you can still enjoy these series made 30 years ago.
Description of The Tomorrow People - Set 1
Welcome to the next stage of human evolution. Not your everyday Homo sapiens, the Tomorrow People are Homo superiors, children with amazing powers--here in our world TODAY. Originally broadcast in the 1970s, THE TOMORROW PEOPLE introduced British television viewers to an instant cult classic in Sci-Fi adventuring. Imagine young Stephen's surprise when he learns he is actually one of the Tomorrow People, teenagers with powers of telekinesis, teleportation (called jaunting), and telepathy. Headquartered in a secret underground Lab and protected by the supercomputer Tim, the Tomorrow People look for the emergence of more of their kind and battle evil forces from the farthest reaches of space and time. Thought provoking, action packed, and creatively produced, this edition of THE TOMORROW PEOPLE contains all twenty-six episodes from the series' first two seasons on DVD for the first time. DVD Features: Commentary with Stars Nicholas Young, Peter Vaughn-Clarke, and Sammie Winmill on "The Slaves of Jedikiah"; Cast Biographies; Interactive Menu; Scene SelectionThames Television's The Tomorrow People (1973-79) was a fondly remembered U.K. science fiction TV series that drew in teen and adult audiences on both sides of the Atlantic with its thought-provoking premise and cliffhanger stories; the show's first two seasons make their American DVD debut in an impressive four-disc collection. For any kid struggling with growing pains, the show provided an irresistible hook: Stephen Jameson (Peter Vaughn-Clarke) discovers that he is no average teen, but one of the "Tomorrow People," a select group of youths with extraordinary powers who protect Earth from a host of threats from space and time.
Series creator Roger Price (later the man behind You Can't Do That on Television and other Canadian programming shown on Nickelodeon, where the Tomorrow People also aired in the '80s) penned the six serialized stories compiled here (three are co-written with Brian Finch), which pit the Tomorrow People against a shape-shifting robot ("Slaves of Jedikiah" and "The Medusa Strain," the latter featuring an appearance by David "Darth Vader" Prowse), an evil military organization ("The Doomsday Men"), and a villain who attempts to change the course of history ("A Rift in Time"). Modern teens might guffaw over the show's primitive special effects, but the stories are engaging and exciting enough to win over even diehard CGI fans; older viewers should appreciate the care with which this program has been preserved on DVD. All 26 episodes of the first and second season are presented here, with cast members Vaughn-Clarke, Nicholas Young (who played John), and Sammie Winmill (Carol) contributing commentary on "Slaves of Jedikiah." Bios for the cast round out the extras on this entertaining collection. --Paul Gaita
