Thundering on: Thunderbirds Are Go will be on Amazon Prime in the US.

The classic puppet-based children's TV show from the 1960s is being reimagined for the 21st century.

Thunderbirds Are Go
is an ITV Studios animated show that blends live-action models and CGI and Amazon has secured the rights to exclusively show four 13-episode seasons in the US via its Prime service.

"We are delighted to be working with Amazon to launch Thunderbirds Are Go in the US; their position as an innovative content provider and their passion for the show makes them the perfect partner," said Dan Gopal, EVP EMEA Distribution and Global Digital Partners for ITV Studios Global Entertainment.

Thunderbirds Are Go follows the adventures of the Tracy brothers, their special air, space, land and sea craft and the organisation they work for, International Rescue. —  AFP Relaxnews
