[clouseau186]

Dr Smith ohhhhh the pain. Lol!777

[clouseau186]

Rip voice of the robot passed last week. Dick ?

[ShadowBlazer3000]

This show is better than Star Trek

[MrJodyRDandridge]

Fondly waited in front of the tv as a kid in the 60's for the next episode to come on. By far my favorite show EVER! Land of the Giants was 2nd. I still watch episodes, as I own the DVD sets to LIS. All characters were great, but without Dr. Smith, the show would not have made it. The movie they tried to make in the 90's sucked!! Why not look for actors who really can look and act the part of the original characters. It's not impossible to do that. I even loved tv commercials back then!!!

[BatmanFan1966]

WHAAAAAAOOOOHHHHHHH!!!!!!!!!!!­! Oh dear! OH DEAR!!!!!!!!! Oh the pain.....please, keep those nasty space aliens away from me!!! WHAAAAAAOHHHHHHH!!! WILLIAM!!!! save me!!!! WHAOOOHH!!! I have been morphed into a giant stalk of celery, and I need MOISTURE!!! I NEED MOISTURE MAJOR!!!!!!! Spare me the poisonous barbs Major West!!! I will remove that power pack from you Robot! THERE!!! Adieu...........NINNY!!!!!! WHAAAAAOOOOOOOHHHHHHHH!!!!!!

[NicBunnymen]

Greatest show ever produced. Loved watching this , actually at times I put on the tapes and watch.

[Amberol]

Dr Zachary Smith, you bumbling twit... easily led, easily defeated... hahaha... we all knew... thanks for the memories!

[mrfester42]

Even ass a kid I wanted to smack Dr. Smith... I think that was his name. What an annoying pain in the ass!

[RawbThatPunk]

The most john williams theme i have ever heard.

[nvet1953]

Absolutely loved this very entertaining tv show....

[bimmerfun]

What a great chart!

[MrStoney2011]

This was one of the corniest but coolest shows ,and who would think the saying by Mr Smith would be "THE PAIN ,THE PAIN " or the Robot saying " Will Robinson, DANGER, DANGER " could become so important to the success of the show. I miss good shows like this, lets bring back the the 60's and 70's

[59Skott]

John Williams went on to do the theme song for "Jaws" and a few of original Star Trek episodes. The TV Lost in Space was really good-except when by third season, the scripts became more and more hokey and outlandish. The 1998 movie of the same name really sucked...get anyone else but William Hurt to play John Robinson! Hes not that good of an actor. It was nice that they brought back the surviving crew of original LIS. (except Billy Mumy;he didnt like the script).

[narcovice]

those women are so beautiful in that space suits

[DarthSideous63]

There was the lost episode where everyone paired off. Professor and Maureen. Don and Judy. Dr Smith and Will. Penny and the Robot

[ernesto1956]

Agreed. This theme is far superior to that of the 3rd Season.

[knightflyte]

@ernesto1956

I liked both themes. This one is my favored version but I really enjoy the screaming french horns in the third season theme. It's amazing how these still sound so fresh some 45 years later. John Williams did a remarkable job writing these themes.

[bimmerfun]

@knightflyte WOW! I didn't know John Williams wrote that theme! Fiddler on the roof, Star Wars, Lost in Space and a million others...WOW!!!

[pbanta62]

@bimmerfun John Williams didn't write "Fiddler on the Roof"--Jerry Brock did the original music and John Williams arranged and conducted it for the Theatrical Version. However, if you listen carefully, you can easily pick up on his particular orchestral style.

[kenpalmer1965]

This was the besr music theme for this show! Love it and remember it dearly! Brings back tons of memories!

[pasadosonador]

THE BEST TV THEME EVER , lost in space was one of my favorite tv show. i want to go back to the 60's.

[DakariKingMykan]

@pasadosonador

Well you can buy the DVDs... tat's kinda like going back...

[AndyLightning1]

"WARNING!"..........This was my favorite show period.

[summer3100]

never fear smith is here ?............we'd shout at the tv and tell the kids not to believe him !

[nauort23]

The dad was hot.

[gregmeadows5593]

Danger, Will Robinson!

[MARSROVER2099]

One of the Best TV shows from the 1960`s : for the small screen, this one sure brings back many of my old tiime youth memories ¡ ¡ ¡ ¡ W O W ¡ ¡

[barf245]

Danger, Will Robinson

[Petergan88]

Mayday mayday Aliens approaching ........

[sorris28]

John Williams wrote this.

[glutusmaximus]

Thanks for posting this

Brings back memories

[expostfactum]

I liked the other theme better

[Krazzy12U]

Well, silly me, I just tried to upload the first episode (The reluctant Stowaway) and ALREADY it's blocked world-wide...'cause it's owned by Fox studios...Amazing, you'd think by now they'd let it out for the public to share, I mean, it's that old and classic and harmless...Bahh! you tin headed BOOBIES at FOX I should take out your power pack, c how u like THAT!!

[GeorgeVreelandHill]

Great show.

As a kid, this was one of the shows you had to watch in order to be accepted by a lot of the other kids.

TV was cool back then.

George Vreeland Hill

[darrylhaynes]

dr...smith was a fag in real life...

[TheEldoradoKid]

Dr Smith to the Robot: Come along now you bubble- headed Bimbo!

[springtime65]

Ireally lovd this show when i was young and wanted to hang out with Will Robbison ..I mean Billy mummy ..I even sent him a note on envo;ope i wrote in c/o Rhe price is Right .. For Will Robison ..lol

[Pegbur]

My son asked me what the name of the robot was. I said, I don't think it had a name, they just called it robot. Am I right?

[submersibledave]

@Pegbur Yes, the just called him Robot. Chec out theme music from season 3. it was composed by John Williams (Star Wars, Indiana Jones)

[elc1960]

@Pegbur Somewhere along the line, people just started referring to the "Lost In Space" robot as "Robbie the Robot", however submersibledave was correct, the robot was actually just called "the robot". And by the way, I believe both the show's themes were composed by John Williams. He did lots of others back then as well.

[RobotB9032]

Yes the b9 robot was just called robot, also blinkey by his creator robert kinoshita, robby the robot was a prop in 2 episodes and stared in the movie

forbiddn planet. I have a B9 and he tells you this. Happy Days.

[saml760]

That Does Not Compute!

[mrsgritoli1]

OOOHHHH....THE PAIN

[TEMPmichaelhansen]

yes this is a memory of the 70's and the 80's

because it was a 60's show that was shown in syndication in the 1970's and the 1980's MISS THOSE DAYS

[radioclash81]

@TEMPmichaelhansen I miss those days too--I was born in '69, so I caught this show in reruns in the late 70s and early 80s on TBS Sunday mornings. I remember the Three Stooges would come on before it. Of course I have the whole series on DVD now, but there was something special about having to catch it when it came on. I would get so mad if I overslept and missed some of it.

[MichaelHansenFUN]

@radioclash81 in my day this was on regular uhf in syndication. i took it for granted

[DarthSideous63]

Imagine if Guy Williams played James T. Kirk and William Shatner played Professor Robinson.

[MrJeffreydunson]

@DarthSideous63 Thats to easy, first, dr. smith, would have been out of the air-lock in the second episode. second, any alien female, in 10 light-years, has a good chance of being shagged by James T. Kirk.

[beiever]

@DarthSideous63  ilike that idea

[dahsuerk]

To much Dr Spock killed this show. 

[blkchk]

Danger! Danger!

[LawrenceBean11]

This is frreakin' brilliant.

[thevampirefrog06]

@WSenator1 Yes, it's true. He also did Time Tunnel and Jaws.

[tonyvalente]

i love how dr. smith died of aids. space faggot!

[bubbabubbabooba]

@tonyvalente shut up bitch......take some nunchucks, lube them up and wedge them up your ass

[tonyvalente]

@bubbabubbabooba I forgot, smith was your dad faggot. take your cocktail of 50 xnax and man juice loser

[bubbabubbabooba]

@tonyvalente oh blow it out your ass bitch........homophobic jerk

[caribeandude1]

@tonyvalente Jonathan Harris did not die of AIDS you nazi pig.

[KJOSCOT]

@caribeandude1,@tonyvalente:

Jonathan was married to his high school sweetheart, Gertrude Bregman, from 1938 until his death. They have a son, Richard (born 1942).

In late 2002, The surviving cast reunited to film.However, just before the movie was about to film, he was taken to the hospital where he had a back problem, which led to his suffering heart failure.

Jonathan Harris died on November 3, 2002, in Encino, California of a blood clot to the heart, just three days before his 88th birthday.

[FamilyOfMan1975]

LIked the music but you could have had a few more pictures.

[alberto8474]

EXCELENTE NOSTALGIA Y CALIDAD

[WSenator1]

I've been told that the composer of this theme is John Williams, who later composed the "Star Wars" theme and conducted the Boston Pops. That true?

[KJOSCOT]

@WSenator1 Yes.

[skyy3838]

This is NOT the best theme. 2nd season,when they went to color is THE BEST!!!!

[vinylrecord68]

@skyy3838 You probably mean season 3...the 2nd season used the 1st theme with at least 2 beats cut out near the end.

[ehc69]

this is wierd

[2335dark]

I must be the only one who loved the ENTIRE show.

I know the show got silly after season 1, but I still enjoyed the show. Even the much maligned-season 3. Won't deny the show turned in some clunkers, but LIS IMO was a fun show. More fun than Star Trek (I never got into that show).

Maybe the show would have lasted longer if it had stayed a serious sci-fi show ( it might even have outlasted Star Trek), but I don't dwell on it. I enjoy the show for what it is, whether it's serious or campy.

[midnightcaller200]

@2335dark no you are not I also loved the show has a kid growing up. I was 9 yrs old maybe 8, but one of episodes, I liked was the one called the mask were John Robinson put a masked on,and the mask wanted him to help take over the world. and he was taking his son to the edge of the cliff to push him off ask to see his dad one mort time and they through the mask over the cliff so intence for a 8-9 year old kid

[albalonybalony]

WARNING!

[daboteman]

OH! The pain...

[FarazParsa]

DANGER, WILL ROBINSON!

[drandall1776]

Allow me to be blunt: I watched that show for only 2 reasons: Angela Cartwright. . .

(thank you). . .

[jeffzebbo]

u goddamn right!!!!

[elc1960]

@drandall1776 Yes!  By the way, Angela is still beautiful, a definite MILF. She is maturing very nicely.

[KJOSCOT]

@drandall1776 Second that one. Look at her now. I had a huge crush on her then, and when she was in Logan's Run. Wow!

[DoctorScuba]

watch "FUCKED in SPACE" on U-Tube!

[beatlesquarrymen]

haha with a Beatle?

[jeffzebbo]

awesome!!!!!

[chkjns]

Added to 1965 in my series of music playlists for each of the past 100 years.

Over 4000 songs playlisted on my channel, by artist and/or year.

Your mouse can take you back to any year you choose . . . . . . .

[subliteral]

That John Williams sound in the music is so unmistakable. Hard to believe that not even 10 years later he'd be composing the Star Wars music. Or maybe not so hard , huh?

[sondano]

CBS stole the basic concepts from Gene Roddenberry then invited him pretending they were interested in Star Trek then at the end of the meeting they told him they were already making their own sci fi series. I don't know why Gene didn't sue the hell out of those pigs. Thankfully Lost in Space would never become a great show like Star Trek

[slworking2]

Crush! Kill! Destroy!

[doctorw2]

this show had great potential to be great sci fi series too bad they mucked it up with all that sillieness.

[hypnoassasin]

When it got 2 the 3rd season yeah. But the original B&W 1st season was excellent. Season 2 had some gd and bad episodes. Season 3 got totally crap.

[2335dark]

@doctorw2

I guess I'm the only one who enjoys the ENTIRE show...yes it got silly, but I still enjoyed the show.

Yes, it might have lasted a bit longer had it stayed a serious sci-fi show (it might have even have outlasted Star Trek), but I don't fret on what could have been.

I never got into Star Trek BTW. LIS was a more fun show for me. To each their own

[Agent1W]

@2335dark LIS and Star Trek are supposed to be very similar. But LIS just has one big family alone in space, wandering around instead of a galatic navy doing the same.

[1776ben]

Blast from my past, I was 6 when this came out. How do you get this as a ringtone: I know it's out there. What my sibs and I remember is the "Danger, Will Robinson" scenes with the "vacuum turned robot" waving it's arms on the paper mache set. What a time capsule.

[SAMMYMAN7777777]

LOST IN SPACE OR SPACE IN LOST

[bonzoAU]

lol

[rascal211]

The first season was good but then it got campy and corny. Even as a kid I lost interest it got so stupid.

[beatcat22]

rascal 211, I agree. Taken seriously, it could have been as good as the original Star Trek. Way too much camp. The fatal turning point was making Dr. (shit, what's his name, brain cramp...)

into a buffoon. In the first episode, he was a serious villain, and the very cause of them becoming lost....as a spy stowaway on the ship, he threw off the calculations.

[wanderingtaoist]

At the time it was competing with Batman in the ratings, and Batman was crushing them pretty badly, so the decision was made to make it more comical. But yes in the pilot Dr. Smith was straight up evil.

[greger1]

I'd read years later about the Batman influence and the suffered ratings of LIS, but when I was a kid, I just couldn't believe how utterly silly it'd gotten. Thought it was just me. You knew you weren't gonna get scared by one-eyed monsters hurling massive boulders anymore. The look of the show started out great; moon buggy, jet pack, Jupiter space ship—and promised to be high adventure. Darn that Batman. But, my younger brother preferred Batman, and I too eventually chose it over LIS.

[j43ms]

personally i thought it jumped the shark when it went colour.

then it got silly beyond the call of duty. every episode after that seemed to feature a viking or a pirate who shouted a lot and nothing ended up happening

[djminimoto]

This was, is, and will always be my favorite Lost In Space t.v. show theme,because to me it's always meant the mysteriousness,the spookiness,and the danger of outer space and the forms of life in it. In other words, this theme is utter angst and outright pathos!

[j43ms]

i agree, djminimoto, it's much more inventive and strange than the theme they replaced it with.

i love the parts where all the instruments stop and the bowed double basses do that insane run-down!

[EagleOnTheRhine]

Enter John Williams...yes, he wrote this music. I wonder if he looked back at this when writting for Star Wars...

[2wes007]

Dr. Smith annoyed me very much, but

it wouldn't be the same without him.

[moneyclaude2500]

I don't know about ya'll But Out of all the theme songs This Is one of my favorite when I was growing up. When Somebody's Says you Lost in space, I play the theme song! Lol! My Favorite!

[CulturePeaceForever]

lol.Jimboster.Iam sorry to all the Dr.Smith fans....perhaps he wanted quickly to return to earth and finish his work on earth??

[CulturePeaceForever]

This was my favorite, back then I ,remember I hollered when I had priviliges taken away and couldn't watch it ....muaaahhhhhh!!! That dr.was such a gripey-old thing,and that robot was so lovingly intelligent...

[jimboster]

For making such a mean comment about Dr. Smith, you are hereby grounded for two weeks!

[sidv23]

The 1st (the BEST) and 2nd intro theme 2 the series. Season 3 was just terrible.

[trilogypart3]

@sidv23... isn't it amazing how people can have such differing views on things? I say that because I feel the opposite way about the themes. I thought the season 3 theme was infinitely better than the theme for the first two seasons.

[pdclemens]

@trilogypart3 I agree totally! I FAR prefer the Jerry Goldsmith 3rd season theme, so you are NOT alone!

[pdclemens]

@pdclemens Oops. I just did some research on IMDB and discovered that both the original AND season 3 themes were BOTH written by John Williams! (Funny how many times I've heard people say that Goldsmith did the season 3 theme. ) Also, they were indeed writtten by the Williams we know and love and NOT by his father, even though he did use a slightly different name ("Johnnie Williams"?).

[AriesTRam]

@sidv23 Agreed about the third season theme. While I find the series rather cringeworthy now, when I was a kid I loved Lost in Space. Re: the newer theme, I guess they wanted something a bit more action-oriented for season 3. Dr. Smith was much better as a menacing figure, esp. in the first season, something they returned to in the film version.

[robaronin]

@sidv23

I liked the season 3 intro - more dramatic that the others, which are alnost comedic.
