Captain Scarlet and the Mysterons

This episode is notable as the origin of both of the Mysteron Detector and the Mysteron Gun which would debut in Spectrum Strikes Back. However, the reason for creating the gun, that Mysterons are killed by electricity, seems a little odd as they've been killed with normal bullets and explosions before now. Aside from those things, this episode was quite boring. We got two fairly long operation scenes which really did nothing for me. On the plus side, Black's trying to kill Dr. Magnus stood out as quite brutal when he chased him down the road with a gun, scaring the living daylights out of the doctor being making him crash. Definately a highlight of this episode. One thing that was strange though, was that Dr. Magnus seemed to have Scarlet's gun when he was running around Cloudbase. Where he got it from and why he couldn't have taken Magenta's on his way out I'll never know. Apart from that, a soild episode.
