Which channel did you use to watch it on Ted?

I read today that it (thunderbirds) was never bought by the American networks.

 

Also had never realised that the Tracy brothers were named after the US Astronauts

'Scott' Carpenter, 'Virgil' Grissom, ' Alan' Shepard, 'John' Glenn & 'Gordon' Cooper.

 

Obituaries are often fascinating.

You may be correct about the major networks airing the Thunderbirds. The channel I watched them on was an independent network. I believe it was syndicated by a company called I T C. I believe it ment international television company?. Any how I loved the show when ever I got the chance to watch.
