Excellent quality print. Bet this looks better than it did the day broadcast over to our old rabbit ears.
I was 2 months old so I don't remember.
I remember at age 6 one Saturday my dad came home for lunch from the gas station and he drew and cut out jet Jackson's symbol and taped to my shirt. I ran out side and showed my friends .😂🎉
My gosh -- video calls and drones -- way ahead of its time.
Video calls have been in sci-fi movies as far back as Fritz Lang's "Metropolis" in 1927 as well as the Flash Gordon serials of the 30s, & I'm sure drones were already a thing back when this show was made. (Not the kind that anyone can buy today, of course.)
@@joestrike8537 a good catch. The Hugo Gernsback days of sci-fi writing imagined many things picked up by media.
I don't know anything about the Jet Jackson rebranding but I saw this on tv as well as a little boy. We sent for an Ovaltine mug too. Ovaltine is still around someplace, probably on the Internet.
OMG when my brother and I were kids we used to make fun of the ridiculously obivously dubbed in name change: one of us would mouth "Captain Midnight" while the other shouted "Jet Jackson!" Not sure why they bothered but my best guess is it might have had something to do with CM's sponsor Ovaltine possibly dropping the show (the actor would do Ovaltine commercials in character within the show) and owning the character Captain Midnight, taking the name with them.
Back in the fifties - as a kid - couldn't wait to pry open my box of Cheerios cereal to get the little prize inside - a Nike missile!
Cast of captain midnight
Mine was white plastic and the spring loaded launcher was green or blue.
Plastics, son. Plastics.
They should have also given you the bomber that it blows up in slow motion.
In illinois he was jet Jackson in other parts of country he was capt midnight. But whatever the name he was cool!😊
At 4:13 "B17, great plane in her day"
Reminds me doc savage and his team
@21:12 Judd Holdren would play Captain Video and Comando Cody in Colombia Serials. Nice cameo. also, both he and Richard Webb, the star of this show, would each eventually go on to commit suicide. :(
well, that ruins my day :-(
One of the first "Reality" documentaries. Gee, that was "Swell".
Anybody still got their decoder ring?
I think I'm getting the chrome silver decoder ring with an alphabet dial on it and the
space ship ring with a tiny magnifying glass as the cockpit shell.
