The Thunderbirds Visit Fantasy Island

Post by takeone » Wed Nov 30, 2011 2:18 am

Ok...couldn't help myself. Found this old VHS with an episode of Fantasy Island on it. Nancy Carsons is an airline pilot whoes Indian background needs her to 'tame' a Thunderbird.

This is a classic! So campy I can't begin to tell ya.

I've cut out a few scenes from the show. The one where Nancy meets the 'Boss' and has a date. Finds out from the 'General' that she can't fly a Thunderbird. Makes-out with the Boss. Then, has a conversation with her dead father, the CHIEF, about following her heart. Finally, telling Mr. Roarke that she's going to fly a Thunderbird no matter what.

Watch for some fun stuff. When she's inverted, they merely 'flipped' the footage. Check the writing on the T-38, the names are backwards!

Plenty of other fun stuff. My fav, Mr. Roarke's jedi-mind trick with the CC of the plane she "borrows". Bwaaahahahah...!

Enjoy a piece of classic TV from the early 80s.
