Thunderbirds (TV series)/Characters: Difference between revisions

{{work}}

* [[Big Good]]

* [[Cool Old Guy]]

* [[Fiction 500]] - Big time. All of International Rescue - the island, the vehicles, the world-wide spy network - was funded by his past exploits as an astronaut.

* [[Mission Control]]

* [[Retired Badass]]

* [[Rich Idiot With No Day Job]]

 

* [[The Ace]]

* [[Aloof Big Brother]]

* [[Mr. Exposition]]

 

* [[A Day in the Limelight]] - He gets into action in a grand total of one episode: ''Danger At Ocean Deep''. Even then, he didn't do much.

* [[The Generic Guy]]

* [[The Unfavorite]] - To Gerry Anderson, no less.

 

* [[Badass]]

* [[Bash Brothers]] - With Scott

* [[The Other Darrin]] - His VA was replaced after season one.

 

* [[Deadpan Snarker]] - His "thing" was being a bit more mouthy than the other brothers.

* [[Hot-Blooded]] - Usually lighthearted, he tends to get pretty exited in action compared to his brothers. For instance, when TB2 is grounded for repairs during an emergency, Gordon seriously proposes piloting TB4 on a trans-oceanic trip and the rest of the family have to gang up on him to make him realize that idea is dangerous and completely impractical.

* [[This Looks Like a Job For Aquaman]] - As the underwater craft and smallest Thunderbird, TB4 was used only occasionally. He takes turns with Alan and Brains for backup on TB2.

 

* [[Bishounen]]

* [[Dogged Nice Guy]] - He has a crush on Tin-Tin, especially evident in ''End Of The Road''. The romance never really takes off, as the series had other things on its mind.

* [[This Looks Like a Job For Aquaman]] - Suffers from this even more than Gordon, as TB3 is the most rarely-seen Thunderbird. He gets compensation as he comes along with Virgil more often.

 

* [[Badass Bookworm]] - As the series progresses, he comes along with the brothers more often, and proves to be as competent and fearless as they are. {{spoiler|He eventually becomes the pilot of Thunderbird 6.}}

* [[Gadgeteer Genius]]

* [[The Smart Guy]]

 

* [[The Butler Did It]]

* [[Extreme Doormat]]

* [[Zombie Infectee]] - He ''never'' cares to tell anyone about his connection to The Hood. As the series was [[Too Good to Last]], the plotline never got resolved.

 

* [[Brainy Brunette]]

* [[The Chick]]

* [[Single Woman Seeks Good Man]]

 

* [[Action Girl]]

* [[Big Fancy House]]

* [[Spot of Tea]]

 

* [[The Atoner]]

* [[Badass]]

* [[Yes-Man]] - To Lady P.

 

* [[Bald of Evil]]

* [[Big Bad]]

* [[Thinking Out Loud]] - ''Constantly''. This guy just ''won't'' shut up to himself. He peppers it up with [[Evil Laugh|Evil Laughter]] and the occasional [[Incredibly Lame Pun]].
