Famous Monsters of Filmlandcontinues to be a must - read powder magazine . The latest issue not only features a cover tale on King Kong ’s eightieth birthday , and a Cthulhu feature , it also has a ginormous section on Gerry Anderson , God Almighty of Thunderbirds , Space:1999 and UFO .
I learned a net ton about Anderson from read the huge department on his piece of work , including just how much his output was determine by his partnership with ITC ’s Lew Grade , who was incessantly trying to get more money out of the Americans . And how nigh we came to getting a third season of Space : 1999 , reach that the ratings were still enough — but Grade wanted to move entirely into picture show product . Also , Anderson ’s divorce from his wife and producing cooperator Sylvia had a huge impact on his output , and was seemingly not super amicable — he created an evil alien queen mole rat based on her in one of his later show . In addition to a account of Anderson ’s workplace and a summation of all his series , there ’s also a great feature about his weirdest monsters .
