- How did a show like Land of the Lost ever get made? The 70s saw some really wild television. It seemed like TV networks were willing to try anything at least once. From shows about space age garbage men named Quark, Bionic Couples, or couples who are actually elements like the little known BBC series Sapphire and Steel. Anything and everything was game for at least one season.
Children’s programming was even more bizarre, as networks tried to engage kids and teens alike in a time when psychedelic was the norm. When it came to family and kid’s TV though, there was one duo who stood proud with a legacy that would dominate the 70s when it came to family programming and put the variety into the word “variety show”. That duo was Sid and Marty Krofft, and they would be the creators of some of the most iconic TV series to come out of that decade. This would be the era that birthed projects like the Star Wars Holiday Special and several other “that was a choice” holiday themed entertainment.
The Kroffts though, would let their imaginations fly and would go all out with the art and ideas wherever it took take them. It was within this library of imagination that the Kroffts dived into the land of science fiction and fantasy. The viewers would find themselves lost in that land, along with a dad and his two kids who were just on a routine expedition.
That’s right kids, grab hold of your life jackets and cuddle a Sleestak, because in this episode of Gone But Not Forgotten we’re heading into the Land of The Lost. But, we won’t be totally lost as we’re going to be guided by not one, not two, but three of the stars of the series as we’re joined by Will and Holly. Yes, that’s right, Wesley Eure, and Kathy Coleman and Cha-Ka himself Phillip Paley are here to give us an insight into the magical land. So, let’s dive over that waterfall into The Land of the Lost!

I loved the original as a kid.
I would go outside and play in the local streams and creeks hoping to fall through a portal to a lost, magical land.
I saw the series remake when I was about 12 years old but had seen an episode or 2 of the original beforehand. I watched all the episodes of the original about 10 years ago on CZcams and loved them. I saw the 1991 show every Saturday morning. I really liked both versions. I want to revisit the 1974 and the rebooted show from 1991 soon. Thanks for the video!
And I remember that episode!
I grew up watching the remake, I only remember the episode where all the dinosaurs where hypnotized by the coming of two moons ( I think) and it was really emotional for me that they nearly were pushed off the cliff, I know my local library has the series which I checked out YEARS ago, but didn't really watch it, my mom loved it though maybe I should give it another shot.
Both the original and the 1991 reboot were great, in my opinion. The themes are in my head now, but that isn't necessarily a bad thing.
Best late 70's show of all time IMO. The Movie remake was not a Galaxy Quest love letter to the show, but it was kinda doing a homage and drawing up some memberberries.
The Rick Marshall character was always yelling at Cha-ka in the first couple of episodes. I was hoping Rick was eaten by a dinosaur.
