Danger Will Robinson! A wonderful tribute to a great Sci Fi Classic!Jonathan Harris the voice behind many Disney classic reprises his most famous role of "Dr. Smith" in recapping some scenes from this one in a million sci fi classic that was held together by the legendary nickel and dime insults tossed at the robot."You bubble headed boobie!" he would yell as the Family Robinson fumbled and failed at getting home. The doctors greed and cowardice "Oh the pain" always shined through. The late Harris would always be known for his over the top performances in this role that best suited his character.If you loved "Lost in Space" you will love Lost in Space forever and have a few laughs with the old cast of a film that nobody but Harris seemed to take seriously.

I purchased the DVD on-line out of curiosity because I am a big LIS fan. The retrospective of the show didn't present much that I didn't already know. The BIG payoff was Jonathan Harris, Bill Mumy and Bob May reprising their rolls in full costume on a Jupiter II set built for the special. I was amazed at the money that was spent not only on the set but to shoot the sequence on 35mm film. Harris delivered his lines as if the show had never ended. His ability to bring that character back to life so accurately after so long sent a chill up my spine and made me appreciate his acting abilities more than ever. The supplemental material includes extensive behind the scenes coverage of the making of that segment. It was very touching to see Harris and Mumy awkwardly appear on set in their recreated costumes and laugh and reminisce. The raw footage of special effect shots from the original show was good for some chuckles too. Any LIS fan should appreciate this one.

Lost in Space Forever is a long overdue tribute to a TV program that rarely gets a fair shake. Let us not forget that LIS was canceled with higher ratings than Star Trek ever got in prime time. This is a fan's tribute to the cast and phenomena that was Lost in Space - papier mache´ caves, saran wrap forcefields, talking dragons and all.While Trek embraced technology and used it to overcome obstacles, the Space Family Robinson was a contemporary family, overcoming threats with family bonds, trust, affection and a pet robot.With Jonathan Harris and Bill Mumy back in costume, and Bob May back in the robot, it is a loving remembrance of the idealized American family that every child wanted, and by association, had via the program.

This is an excellent look back at Irwin Allen's great TV show Lost in Space. This will appeal to those who are already fans of the show, but probably won't appeal to those who never liked LIS in the first place. Fans are rewarded with much trivia, looks back at favorite scenes, behind the scenes activities, and a special treat of a short scene with Will, Dr. Smith, and the Robot made just for this show. What a Hoot!!
