(26,656 posts)1. For those that don't know, the Original Lost in Space ran from 1965-1968.
Was a fun series with a great cast except for Dr. Zachary Smith (Jonathan Harris). Ok maybe Jonathan Harris was good, but the character he played was irritating as all get out, a smug little know- it-all.

and they can never just kill him for being so annoying and evil because that would change the fabric of the whole series.
Disney knew: the secret to good movies (stories) is in the quality of the villain.

(1,003 posts)5. I highly recommend the new Lost in Space series on Netflix.
It's almost serious sci-fi.

She was born in 1945 to Finnish mother and a German soldier. She was put into an orphanage in Oslo so her German/Third Reich heritage would remain hidden. In 1949 an American couple adopted her, she moved to Detroit.
