The cast, pulling faces...

Here comes that theme tune we all remember.....

Thanks for that lovely reminder of a great theme. It was used for seasons one and two but changed for season three. I think, on balance, I prefer the latter one. Alas, I've not managed to find an upload of it on YT.

Yes, I remember watching it with my brother in the late 60s. And there were the monsters as well - in nearly every episode some monster would come along and attack them. The first episode was shown on television not long ago.

Re: Lost in Space

Land Of The Giants was another similar series shown in the 70s. I thought the effects on this prog were superior to Lost In Space.

Re: Lost in Space

There was some fan thing where they did a cgi of the robbisons returning to earth in Lost in space..i remember it on the internet .I think it was an offical fan thing or something like it.

Re: Lost in Space

the fella who played zachary smith was perfect for the role.
he just looked facially perfect.
he had the look of a real devious type.

Re: Lost in Space

I remember one episode when the robot was singing 'I was strolling in the park one day in the merry, merry month of....Danger! Danger!' Funny what sticks in your head!

I really hated the slimy Dr Zachary Smith and Penny Robinson was played by Angela Cartwright who played Brigitta in The Sound Of Music.

Re: Lost in Space

I loved this show as a child but when I got the entire series on DVD, I realised the standard of the stories varied enormously. At its best, it was great sci-fi.

..."Robbie the Robot" started out in the film "The Forbidden Planet"..........Robbie waving his arms about and shouting "Alien approaching"

I'm gonna get all fan-ish now. Robbie, from Forbidden Planet, was only in (I think) two Lost in Space episodes. The LiS robot was a different design and was just called, err, ...'Robot'. But he was famous for flailing his arms around and shouting all sort of things. I think 'Danger Will Robinson' was favourite.

Re: Lost in Space

One of my friends got into it in the late 1980s, & sometime he show me an episode on video.

Re: Lost in Space

This is a show that I never liked but it always seemed to be on in the background on a Sunday. I can't remember anything about it apart from the old Dr bloke. I don't think I ever actually sat down and watched an episode.

Re: Lost in Space

Yes I can remember running home from School to watch it in the 60's.....
"Robbie the Robot" started out in the film "The Forbidden Planet" starring the recently deceased Leslie Neilson.....
I remember Robbie waving his arms about and shouting "Alien approaching"
