Customer Reviews In Space with the Robinson family..... Rating (5) Date: 2007-01-10 I have been a fan of this show since the beginning. So far this is the only episode of "Lost In Space" that I own. I specifically sought it out, remembering it as a child watching it on CBS back in the 60's. This one of those unique episodes that plays as great now as it did back then. This episode came along when LIS was in the early stages of its existence...before the campiness and onslaught of walking / talking vegetables which turned the show into a joke in the eyes of some viewers. In this story you'll catch a glimpse of the true potential the show had in the beginning. It contains a good solid story plus many shots of the Jupiter 2 spacecraft in flight - something I wished viewers like me could have seen more of. There are still good episodes out there after "The Derelict" but you'll need to sift through them. This one gets an A+ from me....make sure you are strapped into your seats for this stellar adventure sci-fi fans! Highly recommended! The best excitement ever for Jupiter 2 crew! Rating (5) Date: 2001-11-13 2 out of 2 customers found this reveiw helpful This was the very first episode I saw when I was eight years old! Seeing the Jupiter flyby around the derelict and it's entrapment was super cool! Hearing the unique ISD drive engine sound was the coolest ever sound effect of its kind! This trilled me the most! Interestingly how the plot of this episode ended up in the released movie. No doubt the writer must have liked this episode too. All Lost In Space fans must get this one for the fact that it displays the crew of the Jupiter 2 do what they do best...survive!! Waaaaaaaaaay better than the first! Rating (4) Date: 2000-05-22 It just got better with the Jupiter 2's first encounter with alien life forms! A very suspenseful episode which later evolved into an important partt of the excelent '98 movie! Possibly the best episode Rating (5) Date: 1999-01-14 3 out of 3 customers found this reveiw helpful The Derelict is considered by many devotees of the show to be the best episode. You can see Dr. Smith as a cold, calculating saboteur, before he became a prissy sissy in later episodes. The Jupiter 2 is drawn into an unfamiliar spacecraft. Dr. Smith is brave about exploring it because he thinks the ship belongs to his co-conspirators. His bravado disappears when he realizes his error. It's said that the LIS movie took a lot from this episode. I would agree. This episode, and the one before it and after it are very good. Almost straight Sci-Fi, and not a talking carrot in sight.
