What the..? A production company in Australia has wed WWII with 1960s TV. It's like Thunderbirds meets James Bond meets mental illness. There's only a trailer and I don't know what to make of it. Disaster? Awesome?

Edit: The website is definitely awesome http://www.sbs.com.au/danger5/

Awesome, definitely awesome.

Have you tried the internet? It's made out of millions of people missing the point of everything and then getting angry about it

The Youtube was totally f'd up - only showing the occasional still while the audio played - and I still think this looked awesome.

Me and the few people I've shown it to have loved it.  Sadly not a great barometer for success.

The full TV series follows in early 2012.

Hitler in a giant robot, wielding a chainsaw which is also a flamethrower. DRILLING AND MANLINESS

That should give you a pretty good idea if this series is for you.

Y'know, why the hell aren't there more awesomesauce pulpy TV shows out there?  This stuff wins every time.

I predict this will hit Adult Swim if it hasn't already (haven't watched AS in quite a while so if it's there...). This is right up that particular fucked up alley.

I was drinking when I wrote this, so sue me if it goes astray.

Great stuff.  The world needs more nonsense like this.
