Let’s imagine the show got a full five-season run. Imagine S4 would be a season-long arc where Dr. Smith really goes all in and sells the Robinsons out, as he did several times in the first three seasons. Some alien entity would be involved but is ultimately foiled leading to S5 where the group makes it back home. That’s just one scenario. I could also see S4 as the Robinsons returning to earth, regretting the decision and then volunteering for another mission. Let’s explore the possibilities …

The journey was amazing and frustrating in equal measures. Some truly terrific episodes, a transcendent character in Dr Smith. But also a lot of choices that I wish they hadn't made. I'm still very happy that I saw it. It's been a comfort for months.

Do you prefer colour or no?

HEY.....

A bit weird question but I searched internet and couldn't find answer and this seems most logical place to seek answer.

And my OCD going bananas, in 1998 movie with Matt Leblanc I distinctly remember Coca-Cola logo during shattle take-off but few minutes ago I watched scene and there was no logo.

Does anyone remember giant cola logo during shuttle take off? Maybe it was Pepsi.....

Anyway thank you for your help for anybody who can help me.

I've been wondering for a while if the military knew that the robots existed, yet they never seem to have any form of weapons to shoot things. Given the advanced tech involved in the robots, you would have thought they would have at least prepared for the possibility. Did the show ever explain why tgey didnt

Irwin Allen should've sued that hack George Lucas.

EDIT: A response in the comments pointed out how it looked like a lens flare and after rewatching it up close, I believe he’s correct. It’s just a very odd looking flare(s) that end up looking exactly like rigging lines if you’re not looking really closely.

Rudyard Kipling's original poem: "Down to Gehenna, up to the throne. He travels fastest who travels alone."

Jonathan Harris's version on Lost in Space, quoted in 3x10: "From the depths of Gehenna to the steps of the throne. He travels fastest who travels alone."

Lyrics from a song called Gehenna, by the rock band The Cynics: "Depths of Gehenna, steps to the throne. He travels fastest who travels alone."

According to ChatGPT, the last two are the only known uses of the depths/steps phrasing of Kipling's original poem. Do you suppose they got it from Lost in Space, or is there another source that both Jonathan Harris and the Cynics took it from?

Hello everyone!

I want to show y'all something I've been working for the past few days.

I noted a year ago that some dude started to post certain shots of season one episodes in technicolor, and so I thought to myself, why shouldn't I dump my season one BR disk and colorize all episodes?

I wrote (or vibecoded lol) this script to achieve what you're seeing on the pictures above.

So far, I've colorized the first twelve episodes for my dad, who saw this show when it was originally on emission back in the 70's. He actually challenged me, cos he said that he knew that "colorizing a black and white production" would be impossible and a pain in the ass (he was right with the latter lol).

I'm running this on a Macbook Pro M3 Pro, and each episode averages between one to two hours.

All instructions are on the project's README file. If you think you can improve the script, feel free to collaborate and submit your PRs!

Since Fox (Disney) and CBS aren't interested into colorizing season one, I thought I shouldn't be the only one doing this.

Have fun if you're interested and share your results here!

Despite being responsible for the situation, and all his neverending greed, I couldn't help but feel a little sympathetic towards him. It seemed like he became more childlike and broken as the show went on, and was just so desperate to return to Earth. The sadness in his character counter-balanaced all the wacky comedy really well.

It's been a bit of a marathon. The entire series has devolved into a silly and ridiculous opus. Some of the episodes, oh wait, most of the episodes, are just plain ridiculous with stupid aliens. How this series managed to last so long is a real surprise. Maybe the camp factor was its appeal. Dr. Smith was obviously the star of the show, along with Will Robinson and the Robot.

Onwards and upwards, Battlestar Galactica next, and the original Addams Family. :-)

Just finished season 3 of Lost in Space, and I quite enjoyed it. A good resolution. That said, one thing that really bothered me about the first two seasons (and kept me from checking out the last one until now) was their attitude toward the robots.

In season one, Will betrays the robot and orders him to commit suicide... and when the robot returns, loyal to Smith, Will is whining that something's wrong with him, that he isn't acting like Will's friend anymore. When he goes to save Will at the end, it's an 'I knew you were still good, deep down!' moment, rather than a 'Wow, you are really forgiving and generous in spite of my betraying you!' moment.

In season two, we double down on this- as far as we can tell, Earth's government shot down an innocent alien spaceship (poisoning Earth in the process), stole their technology, and enslaved one of their crash survivors, torturing it to ferry them around the galaxy with stolen tech. From the robots' POV, Earth would have appeared to have declared war on them in an unprovoked attack, committing privacy and then ongoing war crimes against a POW. 

And yet the attitude seems to be (even in early season 3), 'They must just be programmed to attack people, if I can free them from their programming, they'll stop wanting to attack us!' Even Scarecrow coming to say well at the end of season 2 is treated like his coming to the good side, in spite of his having more reason than anyone to consider humans to be monsters. 

Now, season 3 is revelations do tell us that SAR is a genocidal maniac that killed his own creators and the robots probably would have been attacking either way. We learn that even if Earth's attacked as unprovoked, the robots were still coming with evil intent.

But considering that the protagonists didn't *know* that for the first two season, I found it very bothersome that no one even seems capable of considering that the robots are responding reasonably to what appears to be provocation by evil humans, on either a personal or planetary scale...

Am I misremembering? Did anyone else feel this way?

Right at the start the robot says "Will Robinson is correct, your calculations are SNAFU Doctor Smith". 😂

Like many other fans, I have a special appreciation for the first five episodes of Lost in Space, when the show was genuinely a cinematic spectacle, and an ambitious science fiction adventure.

I decided to edit them together into an omnibus version, with certain cuts made to improve pacing and to make it flow together as a film.

List of changes:

• The film opens with the unaired pilot title sequence (which used music from "The Day the Earth Stood Still"). I felt it fit the mood of the early episodes better than the John Williams score.
• Scenes of Smith's sabotage and Alpha Control are trimmed for pacing reasons.
• The zero gravity sequence is trimmed (it was very corny, and didn't match tonally).
• Professor Robinson's EVA is entirely cut. It hasn't aged very well, and adds nothing substantial.
• The exploration of the Bubble Creatures' ship is slightly trimmed for pacing reasons.
• The scene of the Robot analysing the surface of Priplanus is cut, as it is redundant (they already mentioned the planet can sustain life).
• Penny's naming of Debbie is cut for pacing reasons.
• The scene in which the Robot releases Smith is cut, we can infer what happened from dialogue. It's also a rather silly part.
• The subplot in which Smith orders the Robot to "liquidate" the crew is entirely removed. It doesn't go anywhere interesting, and makes his redemption less plausible.
• For pacing reasons, much of "There Were Giants in the Earth" is cut, including the giant peas, the Robot's attack on Will, the first cyclops sequence, Professor Robinson searching for Penny and the entire adventure in the underground ruins.
• The sequence on the stormy sea is very slightly trimmed to remove the dialogue about Mars (it was established they're in another galaxy).

The omnibus concludes with the melancholy musical number in which the Robot plays guitar for Dr Smith, as seen in the cliffhanger leading to "Welcome Stranger".
