Wow, I'd forgotten all about that series until I heard the music! I still don't remember it, but the music is definitely familiar.

That one was so much fun, I thought I'd post another:

I've always though June Lockhart was so beautiful!

Too bad Dr.Smith didn't make it, but at least the bubble-headed booby did.

Lost in Space--I hated that show from the moment I first saw it--especially the brat kid!  Even as a kid and I wanted to watch TV and that show was on (we had only one station then), I went to my room and played with my tinker toys instead of watch that shit.

Well, I only watched it for June Lockhart and the robot. And I was curious to see if they'd ever kill Smith and save themselves a lot of trouble.

Safe space in 1965?  Ahead of your time.  Yes, compared to Star Trek or Time Tunnel, it was cringeworthy.

When the idiot shows came on, I crawled out my bedroom window and stared at the stars and learned the constellations...  Lost In Space was hideous.  And Space 1999 (?) where the Moon left Earth's orbit due to some explosion...  AACK!

Yes, Space 1999 was a Martin Landau (one of the stars as well) idea.  I think they were making fun of Velikovsky.  British-Italian show.  What could go wrong with that alliance? '=)

Martin Landau is among my least favorite actors along with Scott Bakula.

Time Tunnel--forgotten that one.  I kind of liked it since it would deal with different ages gone by--at least the idea was fun.

I thought it was better than Quantum Leap.  Quantum leap always stayed within a few decades before the present.  Time tunnel went t relatively distant future and past.  My favorite episode was the Feminist future one, where humans were bioengineered as silver skinned, silver dressed drones in a social hive.  They had a time machine (guess it took them centuries to reproduce the Time Tunnel).  They were going back in time, to kidnap people just before they died.  They did this to Hitler.  I think they were trying to re-diversify their social and biological matrix.  Episode 5, The Last Patrol.  America's answer to that eccentric Dr Who ;-)

Anyone else remember this take on the future world of 1980?

For me, "old TV" is Walt Disney in black and white, and "Victory at Sea"!

I don't remember that at all, but it looks pretty good. I think I'd've remembered the lady with the purple hair!
