- And now for some brilliantly colorized frames by Guy Micheal Foster! This is only a small sample of the wonderous colored art that can be found exclusively at the Priplanis Polycolor Collective: m.facebook.com...
That was absolutely incredible, I've never seen anything like this in color when ''Lost in Space" shows in this very colorful screen. Way to go,Way to go, keep up the good work.
Eduardo Lugo no shit! fantastic! !
I really, really love the coloration of the first season, in my opinion the best season. Very clear and such brightness! You never would have noticed the bright outfits the cast were wearing in the old black & white episodes. I certainly enjoyed watching this.
Greatest Show of my childhood even now at 61, Lost In Space rules the solar system!
Totally agree at age 62.
Me too at 59
@@eugeniabuitron172 I'm also 59- 60 in 4 months. love the show and colorized 1st season.
60, started watching it at 14 1/2, got re-started in 1990, when my friend went to the 1990 Boston Convention. He met Jonathan Harris. I like the Robot!
yep, at 61 still mesmerized by lost in space. back in the 1960s when i was 5 years old my mother could'nt get me and my brothers away from the tv when lost in space was on. no matter how much she hollared.
What a masterpiece. Thank you for creating this. Lost in Space forever.
Fantastic!!! Love it! Love it! Love!! I was back in my old living room, with my brother and our black and white tv. Thanks. ☺
You're welcome Gil
Always l like it l loved it lost in space films always will thank you sharing it
The music was so good by John Williams!
Agreed! That was one of the undeniable strategic factors involved with making Lost in Space the epic hit it became which has lasted the test of time approaching nearly a half century later. Most folks have no idea just how much of an impact a spectacular memorable soundtrack and particularly musical theme-song makes in the overall impact a film has upon us. That, accounting for why once the advent of "talkies" circa 1929 became technologically possible, the benefits of film married with a synchronized dialog and sound track began an entirely new "golden age" of motion picture making and entertainment.
The coloration is fantastic. Crystal clear of pictures too. Great job.
Love the sounds and music of this era tv series.
Yeah. too bad it all plays at a higher (speedier?) pitch than the original TV series aired. But that's the problem with all such original recordings of those times... the 3% higher pitch level. And no one can explain why it happens, even to this day.
wow wow wow, the first
season of Lost In Space
looks exquisit in colour.
Paul Bacchus
Thanks Paul
Great colorized pictures from the first season.
Many thanks my friend
Kudos for getting the colors of the early first season uniforms correct.
This is wonderful! Oh, how I wish they'd release Season 1 DVD in color just like this! It really does change the whole thing. Thanks for posting!
Bewitched and I Dream of Jeannie started out in B&W before going to color. When I collected the DVDS on the early seasons to both I had the option of B&W or color and I purchased them in color. I collected L. I. S. in 2005 so I'm really surprised they haven't come out with S.1 in color before now.
The Music endures and gets better with time. Even if the plotlines can't quite (often) make the same claim. Beautiful work. Congrats!
Thanks Ricktpt1! I've done a lot more & all available to view in my FB group: facebook.com/groups/761084164073380/
They should release colour versions of all the series 1 episodes
Those were the days of HIGH ADVENTURE. a year before STAR TREK, and 12 years before STAR WARS! Same music, the Oscar-winning John Williams!
Many years ago l met many of original cast of lost in space. Billy mumy so very down to earth
guy you have done a brilliant job i wish season 1 was colored a lot of dedicated work from a true artist thank you
Many thanks John
Definitely need to show in color for the first season it look really great
Bill Mumy confirmed that The Keeper's outfit was actually gray.
Guy Michael Foster. You were unarguably born with a God given talent the rest of us mere mortals can only forever dream about. The quality & caliber of your artistic talent and prowess is almost beyond belief. Thanks for all the hard effort and long hours you invested in this labor of love which is entirely self-apparent and speaks for itself. I can't wait until you're done and the entirety of LIS Season One hits the open market.
Well done. Very nice. Hey, Yvette... You gotta see this.
when I lived in concourse village in the Bronx NY. they had ceiling lamp fixtures in the dining rooms of apartments that looked like the Jupiter 2 .of Lost in space .. L.I.S LOVE YOU FOREVER THE FIRST SCIENCE FICTION SHOW I EVER WATCHED BEFORE STAR TREK . ALWAYS HAVE SUCH LOVE FOR BOTH SHOWS .
Did you know that Guy Williams (Prof John Robinson) grew up in the Little Italy section of the Bronx. Jonathan Harris (Dr Smith) also grew up in the Bronx. Guy Williams' real last name was Catalano.
Brilliant work..looks brand new..well done..
I really enjoyed that. Thanks for doing it!
Thank you!!! Obrigada from Brazil!!! I love Lost in Space !!! Maravilhosas cores!!!
If this was from the MR. NOBODY episode, this was PERFECT!!!
At 59 - this show makes me look back at the good old days when I was a boy wishing I was Will Robinson.
I had a bit of a crush on Will. I idolized him.
Loved their theme music! Danger! Danger! Will Robinson! B/W or color this show was great for the sixties. At least the first two years were.
Fabulous! Still love LIS fifty years on. And this is like having a soundtrack album - John William's "background music" brought to the fore with no dialogue over; great to hear his wonderful orchestrations. What a treat, thank you for posting
I wish they would have colorized season one on the blurays.

I decided to look up cosplay options for Lost in Space and was pretty stunned by the first season costumes and I never would have guessed what the actual colors were behind the black and white. Pretty striking, honestly. I guess they chose them because they worked best with the B&W photography? Very different color schemes than the following two seasons.
they should consider colorizing thr first season
really? he's for that? Wow. Yeah ell the USA cable channel started running the series back in 1989 they started with the second season episodes and thenthe third year until fans demanded they show the first season.
2:01 They found a convincing little stunt double for Angela; that was a hard fall. Also nice sun flare you added
WOW, what a great job! I have seen the footage of the chariot scenes that were actually filmed in color, and you have the season one outfits down perfectly.
Cool stuff. Loved this show growing up.
Some bright beautiful colors, including the outfits the cast wore, in season 1. Too bad, at the time, we could only see them in black & white. Season 1 was more of a serious nature and I liked that much more. If you ever get the chance, watch the trailer C-B-S used to promote Lost in Space in the fall of 1965, just before the pilot aired. You will see the series was meant to be more of an adult space family soap opera and struggles trying to survive the unknowns of space travel, while trying to find their way back to earth. Not silly like the espisodes that started towards the end of season 1. It was starting to be more like a kids show. You can find the trailer on CZcams. Jonathan Harris and the Robot were actually added in after the pilot was already made. They used most of the pilot, but added Dr. Smith and the Robot's parts into it. Harris was responsible for the the changes because he didn't like playing the original character of the evil Dr. Smith. And, he was afraid that character would be killed off after the first few episodes. Irwin Allen, the show's creator, liked the new changes in Dr. Smith's character and told Harris to keep on doing it. Later Harris started rewrite scripts, change scenes and do pretty much whatever he wanted. I honestly don't know what Allen was thinking! Eventually, the show began to center on Dr. Smith, Will Robinson and the Robot. This caused alot of resentment towards Harris by fellow actor Guy Williams. Williams, who played Professor John Robinson, was supposed to be the series major star. I wish it had stayed on track the way the it started out. If it had I, really believe it would have lasted longer than 3-seasons (1965-1968).
Don't go by what Jonathan Harris preferred everyone to believe which was heavily filtered thru his own egotistical prism. The actual reason Irwin Allen made the concession of giving Jonathan Harris "free rein & creative license" regarding whatever script dialog changes he wanted to make was solely a SNUB.
It was the only way Allen could enjoy at least a modicum of retribution toward the sponsors who forced him into adding the "Dr. Smith and Robot" characters into the series underlying motif which he never liked nor wanted. Whether that was ultimately good or bad for the overall series development is a matter of opinion and interpretation depending upon whom you ask.
But it's unarguably one of the primary reasons fully accounting for why the show got off to such a spectacular blockbuster start but quickly began "taking a nosedive" from which it never fully recovered while just barely into its debut season.
Why should the professional storywriters work their butts off creating quality premium content when a hammy over-demanding actor (JH) was given free rein by the series creator (IA) to trash it and ad-lib their lines? That's in total violation of one of the most fundamental taboos in the motion picture industry which frequently warrants immediate termination on the spot 99.9% of the time.
All things considered, it's a pretty safe bet that factor was one of several which contributed to the show's cancelled toward the normal conclusion of season 3. Given that fatal death blow so early on it's amazing our beloved Space series survived as long as it did.
Absolutely magnificent and spectacular work by Guy Michael Foster! I couldn't possibly be anymore impressed. I only wish I'd discovered his work and content much earlier than just today.
Back during the earliest days of colorization when the technology was "still in its infancy" the quality was rather awful and a bit cringe-worthy at the very least. But drastic improvements arose in "leaps and bounds" once HD digitized frame-scanning & processing techniques became utilized as the industry standard.
That great advancement, used in conjunction with "wet-gate" film transport technology which naturally "fills in" thus eliminates, a near entirety of scratches and other such imperfections caused by normal "wear & tear" the original source film suffered during past usage.
It's truly amazing how a mere droplet of water (even nearly microscopic in size) uses the properties of light and "natural lensing" to magically "fill in" any small voids or imperfections. That, being achieved by interpolating what was originally there based upon the presently available neighboring detail surrounding it. An almost absurdly simple concept and technique which consistently produces stunning results regarding the restored detail sharpness and clarity of what had previously been lost.
What I love most about today's "digitally enhanced colorization process" is how its use of color not only augments the B&W films from whence they originated by a quantum leap, but the results are actually superior to films shot entirely in 21st century technicolor in the customary manner. The reason being, its most important detail is given the most bursts of color and least important details are left almost unaltered so as still in near B&W shades of gray.
The result is a color enhancement process which not only accomplishes what it originally set out to do, being convert B&W to Color, but further greatly accentuates the most strategic detail the film's creator intended viewers to focus upon the closest. The latter outcome, being a wholly unintended but wondrous added bonus which makes the visual results and stories they convey truly "come alive" and jump out of the screen at us. 5702450544@windstream.net
The BBC colorized a black and white Jon Pertwee episode called Mind Of Evil.It looked fairly good.It was originally in Color but the master video tape was lost and all that was left was a B/W duplicate
The same is exactly true regarding a few (lost color) episodes of "Are you being served" which was ultimately color restored in the very same careful painstaking manner.
all but part 1 were restored using the chroma dot colour recovery method however part one lacked chroma dots as the telerecording had a notch filter. it was recolourised from scratch by youtube's babelcolour and the doctor who restoration team.
Great well made video! Thanks for posting! Love this show, especially season 1.
Outstanding piece of art.
Excellent work, When I was a kid (C 1960's) I used to wonder what colours the Jupiter 2 and the robot as well as the uniforms were. I envisioned the robot to be slightly bronze in colour and the J2 to be a pale yellow. Oh well..I was wrong...
Why don't they colorize season 1? I'm a purist, but this looks beautiful!
Randy King it sure does their colors are BLAZING .
I have always been looking for the WHOLE series and can't find a copy anywhere in any versions!!!!!!Well may be before I pass on I might finally find a copy somewhere,although I'm sixty one years old I'm also old before my time!
To paraphrase the Robot: "This computes!"
The first season of lost in space was in black and white now you see it in color the first season is on sale. Every season together is redone with better color etc
In the first season of Lost in Space there were more episodes than in the next two seasons because with the addition of color, costs had to be cut. That is why Lost In Space(1965-1968)had more episodes than Star Trek(1966-1969)although both shows lasted three seasons.
VERY COOL
Guy, outstanding job! 😁👍👏👏👏
It would be great to see the First Season episodes in colour and at such a good resolution. Season One had the most serious story lines that could be taken seriously - especially the evil Dr Smith character - before it became too comical and had too many Earth-like aliens.
It was not presumed that atmospheres were breathable, and that aliens all spoke English. First Season episodes could be taken seriously by adults. Even the dialog between Will and his father was better then.
All it needed was a better-sized Jupiter II. I'm sure that computer graphics could bring this in line with today's standards.
I love the vivid colours used.
spectacular
What I think what catches me about LIS and Red Dwarf is that Robots are one of the major characters
Outstanding!!!!! Just Outstanding!!!!!
Forget the frames I love the music.
Wow! Great job! It must've taken a lot of really hard work. I really appreciate the effort and the amount of hours that you put into this. In my opinion the colorization along with the accompanying musical score give the series /episodes a gravity/heft that wasn't present in the original b&w.
Bravo!
Many thanks David
@@guyfoster4669
You're welcome. I believe that no matter what the field , excellence and effort should be praised and acknowledged
frames in color: awesome
Thank you
trully aeesome
This is pretty cool to see all this in color. However, it also proves again why the series was best in classic Season One B&W.. :-]
2020 anybody? Am i the only one ok bye
That's great work and means a lot.
Thanks Hari
To all Lost in Space fans. Bill Mumy just turned 70 years old on Feb.1, 2024. Happy Birthday to Bill and many more.
🎂🎉🎊
Wow this is awesome work!!!
Thanks Alfred
Nice.
I always thought you did outstanding work Guy! You're a good man, and creative as hell.
✌❤😊
Many thanks Mark! I appreciate it!
I used to have a pair of Lost In Space boots once.
According to Bill Mumy, The Keeper's clothes were in fact, gray, not green.
The colorization of the first season uniforms/costumes is spot on!
First season was pretty good. Especially first half of the first season. Second season was bad. Third season was better than the second but behind the first.
Love!
they should add footage and new special effects . like what was done for the star trek 50th anniversary edition on DVD .
Fantastic , so well done !!
Thanks captainnuzza! I've done a lot more & all available to view in my FB group: facebook.com/groups/761084164073380/
I love the vivid color!
Wow! Usually I hate old B&W movies colorized but these look awesome. Even though I love the 1st season in B&W.
Hollywood spent money on the sets. It makes a difference to the outcome of the scenes.
The first season was the best. However, Penny looked pretty dang cute in the last season.
We need to see more of Episodes one, two, and three in color.
I love this
Thanks! I've done a lot more & all available to view in my FB group: facebook.com/groups/761084164073380/
Cool!
Nice color.
The Keeper, Will beaming back to earlier Earth and Professor Robinsons alter character were great episodes.
@8:30 Mrs Allen - Irwin's wife. Nice work with the pictures.
I love these pictures
Nice!!
I wish they would colour the black and white up and put on dvd
Marta.
I remember watching invaders from the fifth dimension high on acid.. What a trip
Color Season One
Don't have to ask Why...
started out as a serious science fiction show in the first season for the most part then devolved into a children's show for the most part. I liked the entire series but I had my share of episodes that I didn't care for. It would have been nice with the beautiful outfits that it could have been filmed in colour. Perhaps the whole first season could be colorized like this.
Amazing!
Color this show...
I love it! It must have taken so much time to do this because it's such a great job! Did you know what the colors were supposed to be or just a guess??? Either way just seeing it in color gave the first season a whole other take! Thank you!
There are actually a lot of color stills and publicity photos from the first season. We usually guess use those as a reference, that is until we memorized them lol
Thanks for commenting!
Hi Eugenia, yes the images can take anywhere from 30' to 4 hours. Average about 2hrs. Due to the existence of pre-existing color stills I was able to build up quite a significant color palette library based on sampling of pixels in the color images. The only real guesswork is with some guest stars costumes, alien ships and one-off props that appeared. Thanks for your kind comments.

When are the Season 1 episodes going to be released in color? It’s high time…
There must be a big market from world-wide fans to the original series who will buy the color version.
This colorized version is excellent work.
$20 would be a good price.
I wish season 1 was in color
Color the Jupiter........
I MISS THIS SHOW
WHY DID THEY HAVE TO CHANGE EVERYTHING
IN THE MOVIES
FOR THIS SHOW!
WHAT WAS REALLY MISSING IN THE MOVIES
TO THIS SHOW
WAS THE ROBOT....
THEY SHOULD HAVE USED THE ORIGINAL DESIGN WITH THE
ROBOT WITH THE SAME ROBOT
VOICE! THATS WHY THEY DIDN'T
DO AS WELL @
THE BOX OFFICE
LIKE THEY SHOULD HAVE .
A PRIME EXAMPLE
OF HOW THESE MOVIE LOSE MONEY
BECAUSE THEY KEEP CHANGING
THINGS.
THATS WHY THE 80S ROCKED
[ORIGINALITY]!!!!!!
Absolutely correct
I prefer it in black and white.
At the 9:11 to 10:58 marks is The Keeper!
What next? Colorize "Casablanca", "Citizen Kane" and "The Seven Samurai"?!! ;)
Orson Welles told someone,"Don't let Turner use his crayons on Citizen Kane."
I have a tape of Casablanca colorized by Turner. It's not bad. The piano is yellow. Yellow often appears bright white in B&W film.
Casablanca's already available colorized and is totally spectacular. I own a copy. The other two I'm don't know about one way or the other.
Late David Cassidy at 8:45
Chris Johnson Wrong. He never appeared in LIS
@@Agent-xn1hr David Cassidy never appeared on Lost in Space.

Que recuerdos de esta pelicula
Where did you find all the music for this? Ive been trying to find the score for this show for weeks
Jacob Snyder Here you go! czcams.com/video/U3E7851fVzs/video.html
It was done by some little-known obscure composer by the name of Williams something. This was the only music he ever did and he died alone and penniless after spending the rest of his empty life as a fry cook in the middle of nowhere Arizona. It's a shame he didn't try and keep going because there is definitely some musical potential here!
This music has been available on various CD releases for quite sometime now.
If they could colorize Bewitched why can't they do Lost in Space
