The science fiction television series Lost in Space first aired in 1965, and it ran for a total of three seasons and 83 episodes before its eventual end in 1968. The show was both created and produced by Irwin Allen, who had a passion for science fiction. The year before
Lost in Space first aired, Irwin Allen also created the television series Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea, which ran from 1964 to 1968. Later, Allen would also create two more science fiction television shows: The Time Tunnel and Land of the Giants.

Lost in Space, however, was unique from Allen's other science fiction shows for a variety of reasons. All 29 episodes of the first season of Lost in Space were filmed solely in black and white. However, in seasons 2 and 3, the film changed to vibrant color. The tone of the show also shifted drastically between seasons. At the time, trends in tv shows changed rapidly, and the creators knew the show would have to adapt. The wild changes in every season helped to keep the show running until it ended in 1968.
The constant changes to the tone of the series made it one of the more interesting television shows of the time period. The show focused on a family called the Robinsons, a zany family who pioneered the vast reaches of outer space. The first season was more adventurous, while the second season introduced more campy humor to keep up with new fashions and trends in television. By the third season, Lost in Space underwent a complete change. Rather than having each episode contribute to a larger arc, they became more anecdotal in nature. In this format, each episode brought a new adventure to the Robinson family as they
traveled through outer space.
Of course, no matter how religiously you may have watched this show, there are bound to be a few fun facts that you never noticed. In today's video, we're going to take a look at some of the wild things that went on behind the scenes. Make sure you stick around until the very end, where we'll reveal which famous composer spent his early days working on the show's theme song!

Yes... Born in 59 also in some urban developed area in the distant Brazil when and where a black and white TV set was a rare jewell to any Brazilian middle class boy... Along standing with bright voice actors, Allen's "lost in space" was a hallmark in the American perception of humanity in our living room during the 60/70s. It was an unique alternative future and pathway to all the humanity: the 60s traditional family of pioneers with all the traditional values of our common culture. Amazingly in that show, the humanity was impermeable and immune to the superb and powerful technologies they carried on with themselves, including automation and robotics: that familial society was the eternal technological and scientific heyday of humanity. About nuclear force and other forces: Maureen -- "love is the strongest force in the universe." Brazil

it couldn't be "Lost in Space" if they were neither lost nor in space! Ah well, that's what hap[pens when a show gets the axe a bit prematurely. Would probably have been a better ending had they found their way to the original destination of Alpha Centauri.. the show could have ended with them finally arriving to find other colonists had already arrived and are thriving, or a horizon shot of several 'second wave' colonist ships approaching.. making radio contact and... roll final credits.

I absolutely loved the show, I was aged 9 through to 12 when the show aired and it could have gone on forever as far as I was concerned. Jonathan Harris was a great actor as was Guy Williams and I was disapointed that he didn't get more air time and felt as though he was not really appreciated on the show. After all he did play Zorro and was an action Movie star when he came to the show. Heres a little known fact, in the fifties Jonathan Harris had a sitcom where he was a hotel manager with an overly bossy wife and a bell boy come everything named Manuel that centered around the family dynamic and the hotel guests who were guest stars of each episode.... remind you of a british show from the early seventies? Oh and Jonathan Harris was the first person to be called a " Special Guest Star".

Irwin Allen was told to ''cut costs'' even further . the cast was under the impression it was having a 4th season, until Allen told them, that he could no longer produce the show with such budget cuts. there was to be a 4th season, until money and greed showed it's evil hand. i just wish that they could have had a special one night only, to allow the fans of the show a closure and find there way back home. grew up loving this show. thanks Fact Verse, i just subscribed.

The only thing I Didn't know was that they had won an award for those great costumes. The Lost in Space robot was created by the same guy who created Robby the Robot from Forbidden Planet. Robby the Robot co-starred with Robot B9 on at least one episode of the show. John Williams actually computed TWO theme songs for the series. The new theme was used in the third season.

Irwin Allen missed a tremendous opportunity for having the series last a few more years. He had great actors. All the show needed was better scripts. The first year was captivating, for the most part, but then the show started getting silly. In an interview for Archive of Television, Bill Mumy said that he had approached Allen with a script for a movie and his response to Mumy was : "Who authorized you to write a scrip?" Unbelievable. Tremendous opportunities that were missed along the way.

My Dad, not a SF fan, used to shake his head and say "if they'd only get rid of that guy" (Dr. Smith). Smith started out as a sinister villain and became a screeching buffoon. The show had all the elements of a great show, a stellar cast, and parts of it (especially the robot) are iconic, but the scripts became absurd and lazy as hell.

The actor who played the father wanted a more serious take like what the first season offered. What I wish they had thought of was changing it up. Have a few comedic episodes then have a serious one. A more balanced take like this could have had the show survive. Also, if they had the comedic episodes advance the same plot as the serious ones would have been interesting. One thing which I never could understand involved Dr. Smith. He seemed to get the Robinsons into problems every week. I am surprised they didn't punish him (in universe) by forcing him into a sleeper tube.

The Great Vegetable Rebellion was the nail in the coffin for the show. I think it would have lasted a lot longer if the show had gone in the opposite direction it did i.e. MORE dramatic and less camp. Plus, it suffered the same fate as all of Allen's shows in that he refused to hire different writers and the episodes became decidedly "tired".

My absolute all-time favorite episode from 1967 (I was nine years old at the time, never missed an episode): When the Robinsons return to earth, not yet realizing they passed throuhh a time warp and it's actually 1947! They find a new-looking vintage car parked close to where they landed- actually a 1946 Ford- and then the truth begins to dawn on them. My favorite line from this episode from Father Robinson: "The last time I saw a car like this was in a museum!"

I was addicted to the show (in syndication) growing up in the 70's. Our local UHF station would broadcast Lost in Space followed by Star Trek every afternoon, and that was a staple for me and my friends back then. I grew tired of the farcical nature of the show as the seasons went on, and became more of a die-hard Trekkie. I'll tune into the original series now and then, but it just does not hold up. Loved the movie in the late 90's. It had potential to be more. But I must say that the revision to Lost in Space on Netflix was INCREDIBLE!!! Loved it! I thought that Parker Posey brought a great, sociopathic and diabolical edge to Dr. Smith that was missing in the original series after the first few episodes. The ensemble was well cast, but unlike the original series, each episode was part of the overall story arc.

I wish the rest of the season was like Season 1. Like most Irwin Allen series it never had a ending or resolution. It deserved one though. Overall Lost In Space(just the name which represents the concept) would inspire, Space:1999 and Star Trek: Voyager.

With the exception of a few episodes, Season 1 was excellent. I think the filming in black and white made the show even better. They started filming in color at the start of Season 2, which made every planet look exactly the same, and quite phony looking. However, color enhanced the in-space episodes, making the appearance of space look more realistic.

Super show lost in Space, being born in 1962 in Australia, i recall watching it as a young kid, some episodes scared me lol. Watching re_runs as a teenager, still found it to be a great show, loved the character's. Bought the 50th Anniversary edition. Again brilliant. Some of wat was shown was really trailblazing, dispelling religion probably cost it in the 60's.. May it continue to be a shining star. Bravo Lost in Space. Colin O'donnell Lexton Victoria Australia

Hi, your clip on Lost in Space was in my RU-vid feed tonight. Glad it came up as it was one of my favorite TV shows as a kid. I saw the show in syndication around 1974 or so. I definitely feel that the show was cancelled too early. I'm sure the writers could have come up with a 4th season that could have returned to a bit more serious season like the 1st season was. I would have liked the show to have ended with a proper ending... Maybe having them actually reached the Alpha Centauri system or maybe have found their way back to Earth. Thanks for the clip. You have a new subscriber.

The family dynamics was also one of the show's greatest hook!!!!! Back then it was one of the most excellent parts of the show because that was how families were during that time period!!!!!!! Nowadays it's really sad to see that kind of close knitted family falling to the wayside of history!!!!!!!! Also the phrase " Danger Will Robinson" became part of our American vernacular and is still used to this day!!!!!!!

This was by far my favourite show as a child. I absolutely LOVED the space ship. When I'm doodling, to this day, I often sketch the Jupiter! And of course I LOVED the robot!!! I was so excited when Netflix came out with an updated version. Which I think they've done such a great updated version of. So psyched for December 1, 2021 when the final season comes out on Netflix!!!

Had the show not ended after three seasons I think it unlikely that it would have become the beloved classic for generations that it is because the 'kids' would have naturally grown up rather than being forever young and capturing the hearts of each 'next' generation. I was alive when the show aired but too young to watch it. I caught it in syndication every day after school along with Gilligan's Island, Speed Racer, and Ultra Man. LiS aired for decades. I don't know, but it may still be on the air.

"Never fear, Smith is here! Dr.Smith is my favorite character and always will be. I think Jonathan Harris was such a talented man and very eccentric & hilarious. Without him the show would lack the rebel needed to add drama to the plots. He, the robot and Will were a terrific team. Science Fiction was fun back then and colorful and I adored those studio based alien planet sets. I think they should have continued the show for at least another 3 seasons and had them return home. Thank you so much Mr.Irwin Allen. Great video.

Bill Mumy said in an interview that CBS did renew the show for a fourth season but wanted to do it with a reduced budget. Irwin Allen thought he couldn't make a quality show on the money offered so he decided not to take the offer. But at the end of the third season, the cast expected to return for another and was surprised when it didn't happen.
@leonardszubinski4709

The best episodes were during the 1st season, black and white episodes! With exception of a few, Irwin Allen went goofy in allowing the most ridiculous episodes in the remaining colorized programs! Many of those reminded me of skits of Gilligan's Island with such goofiness! The Black and white episodes were more realistic and the plots were more about technology rather than humans turning into vegetables! Too bad that Lost In Space went goofy, it may have lasted quite a bit longer!

@jamesbobo
@jamesbobo 2 года назад
From what I've read, when the pilot was made there was no Dr. Smith or robot. The actors on the show had signed contracts and John Williams was given top billing as the star of the show. CBS execs felt the show needed a villain. When Jonathan Harris was asked to be in the show, he wanted top billing. It was explained to him that Guy Williams has it in his contract that he is the star. So Harris offered to do the show if he was listed as special guest star.

A fourth season of Lost In Space would’ve been interesting as they thought they could develop the characters of Don and Judy to move more into family life with possibly having a child. The show did end rather abruptly with the last episode being the Junk Planet. Interestingly enough was that Dr. Smith and the Robot were not in the original unaired pilot but they were in the last scene of the last episode.

I find it interesting that the Dr. Smith and B9 were not in the original in-aired pilot but they were in the last scene of the last show The Junk Planet walking of screen episode 83. I was told that a fourth season was planned but CBS cut the series because it was too expensive. Billy Mumy spoke to Irwin Allen about a season 4 after cancellation but the conversation, I heard, didn’t go so well. Thank you for uploading this video and in my opinion the show still stands as the best sci-fi television series ever created and I am 58 years old and still watch it in syndication on MeTV.

Anybody watching me would have seen a kid sitting on a shaking dryer but I was in fact Will Robinson being sent through space! Good memories.

For those living in New York City or planning to visit, there is a bench in Central Park dedicated to Guy Williams. Look for it directly behind the statue of Christopher Columbus at the southern end of Literary Walk, aka "The Mall", roughly 67th Street and basically in the center of the park in an east-west sense. One of his pastimes when he lived in NYC was playing chess at the chess house in Central Park. He later moved to Argentina. Guy Williams, by the way, was actually Italian and from the "Little Italy" section of The Bronx. His real name was Armando Catalano. Note that there are 2 statues of Columbus in and just outside Central Park. The much taller one is located in Columbus Circle just outside the park at 59th Street (the southern most edge of the park) and Central Park West. "In October 2002, the fans of Williams, with his children Steven and Toni in attendance, dedicated to him a bench in New York's Central Park.[15]" --Wikipedia
