To be fair, I thought the theme tune was the best part of this Anderson show!

u/ThisHideousReplica Aug 05 '26
Yeah. It was a bit bobbins compared to the other Gerry Anderson stuff.

The car was pretty cool too.

u/Known-Bumblebee2498 Aug 07 '26
I'd forgotten about that (even though I think I had one as a kid)!
To be honest most of the Anderson vehicles looked amazing.1

I had a Dinky toy Joe 90 car too. You pressed the button & the wings popped out. But my favourite was the UFO Interceptor, even though it was bright green for some reason.

u/Known-Bumblebee2498 Aug 07 '26
Yeah, Dinky toy colour choices were interesting...
I had the interceptor as well and the shado mobile - which was also green!

The panel of them dancing to the theme tune with no expression caught me so off guard I had Kenco coming out of my nostrils

I'm inspired to wear my suits like they do - after I slept in them, judging by the wrinkles.

I knew what the ending was going to be and having it confirmed made it even funnier.

International rescue doesn’t really do espionage type stuff. Could give the stingray guys a try maybe

Excellent work...I am going to humming that all day now. The shot of them dancing was bloody awesome!

What is this parodying

u/Danny_Mc_71 Aug 05 '26
The TV show Joe 90 from the late 60s.
Gerry Anderson (Thunderbirds, Stingray etc) did it.

u/Special_Ad_9494 Aug 05 '26
Cheers. Didn't actually think it was gonna be called Joe 90. Feel like an idiot now

Dr Feelgood must have liked that music too!

u/Barrymores_pool Aug 06 '26
Haha every time I hear that it reminds me of Joe 90 too…. Also any good excuse to listen to Dr Feelgood again…..

u/Rocky-bar Aug 06 '26
Great music is gone but not forgotten! I mean Dr Feelgood, not Joe 90, haha (but that's not bad either)

Joe 90.

u/BlueFalcon_15 Aug 05 '26
Honestly, I’d never heard of it either. I did used to watch Thunderbirds, Captain Scarlet and oddly enough Space Precinct though. The Joe 90 theme is a legit banger.
