I remember when Lost in space was generally about the family in whole it became based around Will Robinson, the robot ( whose name was Robot B - 9), and Dr. Smith.

Their fans grew to like Dr. Smith's simpering cowardess, the robot's longsuffering dry wit and young Will who had to bail Smith out of all sorts of intergalactic mayhem.

Contrary to misconception of Jonathan Harris's sinister role in Lost in Space, he was very lovable nice person off stage to everyone, even him and Mark Goodard were really good friends. The irony of vilians or the "enemy" in movies, sometimes turns rage in the audience,(thanks to the cleverness of the producers to draw attention and ratings), but those vilians will probably turn out to be the most law abiding citizens in real life than the actors that are heros. There are exceptions of course.

Notice lot of Jonathan Harris's lines are his creations, not the producer's. Proof in this comes from watching a sample of his other roles in other shows and movies like Lost in Space, and hearing the same lines common to them all. Goes to show the producers gave in to Jonathan's over theirs. His talent in theatre, which he was deeply devoted to before his death.

I wasn't sure when seeing all of lost in space series, but Jonanthan Harris, was beyond marvelous in his acting role, but its obvious his personality, character, emotions, is 99% derived from Johanthan's own creative talent, and 1% from the producer's script. Although much of the dialogue may come from the producers, but after hearing and seeing Jonathon's independent ingenuity and talent, they prefer his. That is how highly intellegent, but modest and funny Jonathon always was. R.I.P
