Quotes
Sentinel One: Many centuries ago, three carefully-selected young Earthlings were transported from their native lands to my faraway world. Here, they were granted astounding powers and eternal youth, then returned to Earth. Their mission: to watch over the human race, helping the good in it to survive and flourish. In the course of history, their names have become legend: Hercules, empowered with the strength of a hundred men; Astraea, able to assume any living form; Mercury, the amazing athlete who can match the speed of light; working together with me, Sentinel One, and my maintenance robot, M.O. These teenage guardians form the greatest team the world has ever known: the Space Sentinels!

"Many Centuries ago, three carefully selected earthlings"

Produced by Filmthon (the people who brought us the 1970's anime of Tarzan and Star Trek) in 1977 and with a run of sadly only thirteen episodes this became my favorite (well one of at least) show of the time. "Hercules empowered with the strength of a hundred men..Astrea, able to assume any living form..Mercury , the amazing athlete who can match the speed of light...working together with me sentinal one and my maintenance robot , Mo" This is how the show began each week and each week and new and deadly foe would make the sentinals fly off from their lair inside a volcano (in which was hidden their space craft) to do battle , which they won and had the "team" laugh scene which everyone knows is the staple of all classic shows ! Somebody must release them soon, with the advent of DVD and the fact that each show was 20m mins long it would be easy to do but who would?
