Oh, so many memories of Lost in Space. It must be because I was at such a tender and impressionable age.

Dr. Smith's extremely stupid rhymed couplets... "The end is near... oh dear, oh dear."

June Lockhart in the space suit. OMG, is that Lassie's Mom??!!

That ever-lovin' robot, who never appeared in the cast credits. We were supposed to believe that it REALLY WAS a robot!

Ah, television's younger years... the days of "My Favorite Martian" and "It's About Time," where the astronauts went through time and ended up in caveman days!

BTW, when I was about 10, lightning struck our TV antenna and blew out our TV. We kids were heartbroken. (I remember it well, it was during Hogan's Heroes!) My grandmother said, straight faced, that it was God's punishment for us watching so much TV!!

...its about space...bout two astronauts out in space(?)...past the fighting minuteman...past the armored knight...pass the Roman senator to this primitive site." (Or something like that.)

The song was reversed when the primitive people came to modern times with the astronauts.

Never really got into SciFi, but do remember a book Renevous with Rama, which somehow impressed me. Anyone know it?

I think there are two or three in the series of Rama, but much like Dune and the expansion of the franchise, they kinda lack the orginal thought of the first in the series.

G Martin, "A Song of Ice and Fire" on the other hand goes from strength to strength, in his series of books.

Doesn't even come close to Raquel Welch in that potboiler set in the stone age.

ole,

"One Million Years BC", where the cave people were all blonds. Right up there with "When Women Had Tails" in the baaaad prehistoric film genre.

The Stews were nice in Land of the Giants...I gotta say however that I

was glad that the land of the Giants was in fact also in the late 1960's era and

that all the giant ladies wore mini-skirts/mini dresses. If your male and 15-

100 it wasnt such as a bad place to be stranded.

I found thread from back I time and brought light to it;

I see X-files but what about Buffy the Vampire Slayer with her side kick Willow.... nothing classic about any episodes but was fun to watch...

Deep Space Nine: I thought it was better show then Star Trek Next generation or Voyager. It had a better set of characters over all then the other two series.
