I know very little about Gerry Anderson because his popular "supermarionation" programs such as Thunderbirds and Super Car aired before I blessed this planet with my awesome presence. I'm sure some of my older "siblings" here in the TV Squad family remember them, and I'm sure some of you readers do, too, which is why I've provided you with a funny sketch from the late comedians Dudley Moore and Peter Cook, who do a hilarious job of mimicking the herky-jerky movements of Anderson's puppets. I'm guessing if Matt Stone and Trey Parker had made Team America this way it would have been a lot easier. Live and learn, I guess. Enjoy Superthunderstingcar! after the jump:

I remember seeing this sketch about twenty years ago, as part of their "Not Only, But Also" show (I think). Very funny stuff and I wondered why they didn't go on to do it as a regular feature; they were perfect for it!
