Okay, so if we did decide to reboot, what would we do? What would we keep, drop, add?

I'd absolutely resurrect Dom. I was thinking about him earlier today, would you believe it? I'd probably change his backstory, though. Make it a bit happier. Joshua probably wouldn't exist, and I'd give him a big family of siblings. Both his parents would be Irish this time, and thoroughly Irish about his disappearing off.

"So you're away to the South Pacific for a job, are ya? Good luck to you, son." *goes back to reading newspaper*

I would keep Dianne for sure but try not to let her be as dominant as she was. Do you think we could use Anna once in a while?

Hey, we could even.... drops voice to a whisper.... change over to TAG. (Waits tensely, hoping to avoid any incoming smacks to the head.)

I was thinking TAG! It would be a nice way to differentiate in a reboot. Reboot based on the show reboot Very Happy I haven't seen the last season of TAG but I do know what happens in the end. We could start a few years after the end of TAG, perhaps bringing in a new enemy.

I'm sure we could use Anna. I'd like to keep Dom as a nurse. As for TB7, how would it look in TAG verse? It would be a module vehicle I think, though there could be medi-pods as well.

Tin-Tin/Brains would be no more, and Kayo/Brains would be a no from me, can't see it. And there's no Cliff House! Our staple setting is gone 😥

Oh, true, the Cliff House apartments would be gone! Yikes! And it would be Brains/Moffie for sure.

Would we want to make it pre-Jeff's rescue or post-Jeff's rescue? It would be the "next phase" so I'd suggest after Jeff comes home. That is, if we went with TAG.

I think it would need to be after Jeff comes home. It wouldn't make sense to have it before. Far easier to write essentially a "later season" than start trying to shoehorn stuff into the series.

Agreed. After the end of TAG, with Jeff realizing what his sons have been shouldering for 8 years.

If we go with TAG, I may create a new character or change Dianne up a lot.

I have a great idea for Dianne!

Someone had to keep Tracy Industries going during Jeff's disappearance. Scott is busy with IR and so is John. Dianne is the one who is at HQ keeping the business afloat. She's always held a torch for Jeff so his rescue sends her to the Island to make sure he's alive (and to verify it is him). She doesn't stay but she stays in touch as Jeff recuperates.

Okay, after over a year, I figured out what I'd do with Dianne. She comes aboard after Jeff's return as... the new chef! This way, the family would get some decent eats and Dr. Sally Tracy could go back to work in the infirmary. (It's canon that she's a physician.)

I don't know what Thunderbird 7 would look like, but as there's no Thunderbird Six, it might have to be renamed Six. And Thunderbird Four isn't a pod vehicle like the Mole or the other auxiliary vehicles are. It can be altered via the pod system but a new Thunderbird can be like that, a standard configuration that can be altered to fit the terrain.
