The guy in the sheet is none other than Gary "Baba Booey" Dell'Abate! Yes, he probably escaped from the Stern show and ended up there; large teeth and gums.

Whats the source of this?

Privacy chamber for sex.

Cool!

Sir! They J2 technically landed on Earth in the episode with the Proto-Planet. The entire crew landed on Earth, but in 1947. So I would add one full Earth landing and one half Earth landing.

Joe's somber facial expression when they mention "the new drummer" says it all. You know he was missing his bro.

@5:00 Same costume, same voice actor?! Wow! That's fascinating!

Jeez, I was there in the late 80's. HeyJuan's was such a dive, but good cheap beer. Miss those Gradburgers! Great place back then, but I guess the gang culture has ruined the mellow, laid back vibe we enjoyed.

Been down in one as teenagers! Maybe 95 or 99 i just remember going thru a huge field with our flashlights off and there was water and pigeons down there

Ron Gans played that guy with the crazy ears in the episode with the evil female robot!!!

They must have had an entire room somewhere devoted to tampon storage.........

You sir, are a man after my own heart. Obsessively watching the show as a child, I asked these exact same questions.

Yes, what's inside these hatches?

What's behind those hatches? I know, One is the parents private booty room (Date Nite). The other one is the sacrificial alter to summon guest stars! 👍😁

The proto planet ep shows th pod going into Jupiter 2 BUT when Will brings the ship back to rescue the family the Pod is on the surface

Also in the episode introducing Verda Smith after disagreeing with the family uses the future space pod hatch to leave in disgust Then on season one when the Engine room was used to build a vehicle Life boat? I also thought the Space Creature ep was an homage to 1953's Invaders from Mars due to everything being seen through a child's perspective and how bout the missiles in Junkyard fin Space?

All the boxes food behind that door is constantly exposed to radiation…. Mmmmmm good eating.

cables on the floor and picked thru left over catering beer cans scattered

Looking at the upper deck, and the position of those ceiling and wall struts, was part of this set recycled to make the cockpit of the flying sub in Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea?

Jerry: "The room service is terrible!" John: "Yeah! The food's so bad it's made Ron all crook!" Greg: "I gave my bags to the head porter and he hit me with a stick!" Colin: And there's plenty of bars but no where to get a drink!"

Actually the power core hatch was opened in Season 1: The Raft. There was a computer looking thing back there which supposedly contained their fuel.

As Lost In Space has 1997 as the date for the Robinson's liftoff, it fits into Irwin Allen's grand scheme. Since his shows were filled with all manner of lavish high tech gadgetry and ships, he was giving us a glimpse of the world of tomorrow. 1997 was a long way off from 1965 (32 years), but one day it would be here, and high tech would play a greater role in our daily lives that previously thought. Allen was telling us to embrace the future, because one day 1997 would be a REAL time, and that we could do anything if we set our minds to it.

The Reactor Core was used for the engine of the Bat Cave in the 60's Batman TV series. Look closely and you can see.

The space Inside the ship did not match the size of the ship outside. Also how did they get the chariot out of the ship. The bottom of the ship was always buried.

Great video!

Thank you for validating my own observations on these two hatches and how they changed.

always wondered where the upper deck ladder went ? there are buttons near the ceiling

Wnen i hit the lottery, i am havimg a life size jupiter 2 mancave built. As close as possible to the original.

The Jupiter 2 is bigger on the inside. Where did they keep the chariot and how did it exit and enter the ship?

Lost in Space must be enjoyed like the old (and easy the best) James Bond movies. They're utterly ridiculous but great fun to watch. Also, as a kid I was wildly in love with Judy and used to fantasize that I would rescue her from space monsters but of course being only 8 or 9 years old, I had no idea what to do with her!

I always thought that the scale was all wrong for the first two floors of the Jupiter II, it looked like there was at least 1/2 the floor space behind the hatch doors and elevator on the top level with 1/2 the floor space on the 2nd level towards the front of the ship on the other side of the elevator.

Scale was the problem with much of the ship. Especially when the Chariot began to appear.

I loved Lost in Space as an infant and a young boy in SE England, but i always did wonder about that, as well as the greater depth of the Jupiter II compared to the external shots. Didn't have that problem with other Irwin Allen shows except maybe Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea.

I always thought they screwed up bigtime by not putting Marta Kristen up front more often. She was the show's hottie.

Feng shui in space!

Overall, this was interesting enough, but revealing that the same voice actor portrayed essentially the same character in different shows twenty years apart…that’s just great.

I can't believe that I actually enjoyed this and sat through it. GEEKS! I distinctly recall the first season launch; it was whipped-up in commercials before-hand and boys at (grade) school were all talking about it. It was exciting during an early time in Space exploration (Gemini) That opening, showing "deep space" ...was SCARY!

Really good video.

But...but...as Dr Smith once said: " There is no Lower Deck" Now I don't know what to believe and am now hopelessly Lost in (the ) Space of the Jupiter 2! Oh the Pain...the pain...

In episodic TV shows like Lost in Space and Star Trek of the 60s, the producers didn't care about continuity or story arch's but what made a good story in the episode.

I tried to watch Lost in Space a few times as a kid, but it was just to cheesy for me. Not a super fan. As others have noted the exterior of the ship looks way to small vs. the interiors. I just can't throw my brain out the window with some shows.

I love how Will, comes up on the elevator, that's great. I was thinking did they use a pallet on a forklift. To get that effect.

I wonder what happened to the space pod interior and exterior props?

You should do video titled: "Whatever happened to Judy: The character that had nothing to do for three seasons".... I suspect the original intent for the character was to be a love interest for Major West, but was never explored. They briefly hinted at a romance in season 1.

Also wondered during first season where the astrogater went there were chairs in its place

Who would have thought I would find a video about hatches so interesting? Thanks for this video!! 4:52 This is by far the laziest alien creature "costume" in any TV show or movie.

What is a bit funny is whenever they encounter an alien(s), they often react as if it is perfectly normal to meet a totally new alien race. While eating dinner, Will says something like: "Oh, by the way Dad, I met this alien while exploring. He wants to meet you". Dr Robinson: "It is getting late son, so tomorrow we will go see what he wants".... Even as kid I would role my eyes.

What!!! there are continuity problems in LIS? I am completely flabbergasted. 😉Be sure to check out my book of lost LIS episodes like the episode where Major West body slams Dr. Smith, drags him into the airlock by his hair, and jettisons him out into space. 😄

Rewatched the series a Couple years ago. They didn't care about continuity at all.
