Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet is a CGI Remake of the marionette show Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons, which debuted in 2005. The new series lasted two seasons (the original only lasted for one, but had six more episodes) but remains lesser-known than the original due to being Screwed by the Network.As a nod to the original's Supermarionation format, this reboot is described as "Filmed in Hypermarionation". The basic storyline starts of the same: in the year 2068, Captain Scarlet and Captain Black discover the Mysteron City during a mission to Mars, and Captain Black opens fire when he mistakes a probe for an offensive action.Thus the Mysterons are now retaliating on Earth with their retrometabolism power, and using Captain Black's clone as their main agent. Captain Scarlet, also recreated as an invulnerable clone, but retaining his original personality and loyalties, opposes them along with the Spectrum organization. | |

Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_14beeefd | comment |
Darker and Edgier: Played With when compared to the original show. This series, while definitely still darker than most kids shows even fifteen years later, very rarely shows blood, but still has many instances of on-screen deaths like the original does, especially once the series establishes that the original victim's memories and personality still exist within the duplicate and can, under some circumstances, be revived. Yet that doesn't stop them from being shot on sight, thrown off cliffs, killed on-screen etc. | |

Mythology Gag | |
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_26ac510e | comment |
Mythology Gag: The remake is billed as being "filmed in Hypermarionation" in the opening credits, as opposed to the originals' "filmed in Supermarionation". The Mercury Shuttle has a markedly similar launch sequence to Fireball XL5. The transition beat, while different, is still used in much the same way as the original series. | |

Gender Flip | |
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_34889673 | comment |
Gender Flip: The male Lieutenant Green from the original puppet series becomes female in New Captain Scarlet, but remains the Token Minority in both. Captain Ochre also became female, but unusually the gender flip occurred mid-series as a male Ochre appears in the first episode, but by the end of the first season, Ochre is a woman, meaning it may just be a new officer with the name. One episode introduces a male pilot who is training to become an Angel before the Mysterons get him. | |

Heel–Face Turn | |
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_617f0563 | comment |
Heel–Face Turn: Captain Black's original human personality — that of Scarlet's best friend and Destiny's boyfriend — resurfaces on several occasions, most notably in "Best of Enemies" when being submerged in a sunken Rhino causes the Mysterons to briefly lose control over Black, and definitely in the finale "Dominion" in which Black is manipulated by the Mysterons and led to believe he's thrown off their influence for good. The episode "The Achilles Messenger" introduce a faction of Mysteron society who are opposed to the war and are willing to help the humans. Unfortunately the series never develops this beyond a couple of episodes. | |

Black confesses to feeling like his old self at times and temporarily regains control of himself in the series finale. | |

Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_a65288e2 | comment |
Ascended Extra: The female Captain Ochre makes a brief debut appearance at the end of season 1, a couple of brief walk-ons at the start of season 2, but by the end of the season had graduated to leading an entire episode ("Grey Skulls") by herself — the only Captain other than Scarlet to do so; even Blue never gets to lead an episode. Several fan sites have suggested that Ochre would likely have graduated to major character status had the series continued. Lt. Green, who in the revival is a more active character than the original version who hardly ever left Skybase, and even to an extent Destiny Angel, who becomes the female action lead and plays a major role in many episodes in this version of the show. | |

Code Name | |
Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_a7defafd | comment |
Code Name: Unlike the original series, which only on rare occasions referred to the characters by their real names (the episode "Manhunt" has it happen and point out it's a breach of protocol, for instance), the revival uses the color codes and real names interchangeably. In one episode Scarlet activates an identity scan that clearly IDs him as "Paul Metcalfe, Captain Scarlet". The original series suggested the real names are usually kept secret, but not so in the revival, seemingly to humanize the main characters and make their interactions more meaningful. | |

Gerry Anderson's New Captain Scarlet / int_dfe687c9 | comment |
Alone with the Psycho: Most of the episode "Best of Enemies" has this with Scarlet and Black trapped at the bottom of an arctic lake in a Spectrum Rhino. That said, the events of the episode has Black slowly regain his memories of his pre-Mysteron self, and notably gets kinder as the episode progresses. Sadly, the moment he reaches the ice, he becomes a villain again. There's a glimmer of hope, though, with him asking Scarlet to look after Destiny for him. | |

Theme Naming: In addition to preserving the theme naming of the original series (colours for Spectrum officers, musical terms for the Angels), in this series each Spectrum vehicle is named after an animal (land animals for ground vehicles, birds for aircraft). | |
