The person playing IDAK is Don Matheson. He later became Mark in Land of the Giants.

I love this episode - Lost in Space tried at the beginning to be a semi-legit sci fi series, but as the writers starting using more and more drugs it just became a surreal, fun free-for-all. Super entertaining nonsense - cherished part of my childhood!

2:52 - 3:31 😂😂😂🤣🤣🤣 looooove the robot.

Maureen: John, what does IDAK stand for? John: I don't actually know Darling. Maureen: Well John, wouldn't that be IDAKD? John: Huh?

This is my fav episode as a kid and now just saw on dvd last night love idak V1 and love Verda she was so compassionate and beautiful no wonder she was a vogue model in the 1940s stunning beauty. The music in this is so great it really gets your emotions rolling up and down. All the bright colours so great too technicolour on roids !!!

28:18 That stunt impresses me. Looks like no doubles were used. 💥

The IDAK robots look like versions of Superman without emotions.

The magic of Irwin Allen

I remember this episode! Love to watch Lost In Space reruns!

The only thing Doctor Smith can show you about judo is how to be useless at judo.

Hey, Penny's potential hiding place for Verda is the cave of Mr. Nobody.

Hazel looked comfy. Did you notice the really bad stunt double for Smith. Not even the right hair color.

The Mask killed me. Thank you and like

2:22. Bad writing? Of course! But the show lasted three years and Irwin Allen and everyone else earned a living. 2:36. "Miserable bucket of bolts" is not alliterative. Dr. Smith could not have possibly said it. I think it was "Bumbling bucket of bolts. 2:45. Every time I see someone with their arms out like that I think of Schmeerskahoven. I didn't even know what that was two weeks ago, and now I cannot get it off my mind. 3:25. Another alien cannot squeeze water out of a rock. Just like Thor in "Space Vikings". 4:27. Don't tell anyone about the alien. Just like "His Majesty Smith". 5:00. Penny picks a flower and hears a moaning sound. Wait until "The Great Vegetable Rebellion", an episode where this happens a lot. 5:16. Hairstyle by Elsa Lanchester. And her earrings are so heavy that she can barely lift her head. 5:36. I read all about it in The Wall Street Journal. 7:28. Good shot of Jonathan Harris' stuntman. 12:06. I just noticed her eyebrows. She is definitely from Vulcan. Too bad the ears don't match. 12:25. The Jupiter II landing gear functions as the seats. 13:27. Dr. Smith has a leather briefcase. Definitely part of the equipment that Alpha Control packed into the Jupiter II before liftoff. 18:19. She took his pointer, remember? 18:47. I cannot believe that I have heard the word "proxy" twice in this video. 23:20. Remember the Keeper's staff was broken by a rock launched from a slingshot? When you said "Android Vacuum", Stargazer woke up. She slept through all the other crazy stuff in this episode.

This was an episode where Bill Mumy's comedic chops really shone. And at 22:20 Idak #2 karate chops some pieces off the Robot's plastic collar!

When I get a kick out of it is the fact that it’s sucking up this humongous man but his cape doesn’t go up into the air😂

The actor who played the first IDAK also played Mark Wilson from Land Of The Giants.

Wow! A Giant vacuum cleaner!! Even more awesome than the free rolling slot machine!!

Great job

One of my favorite episodes

Verda would not have been wearing such a short skirt - that's only a human female predeliction to show off as much skin as possible without getting arrested.

10:45 I heard that the original title of this episode was going to be "The Search For Verda's Pants." 👖

This is about the time where John Williams’ AMAZING soundtrack could not even make this crap exciting!

21:10 Just think how human Verda will look when they remove those three springs from her skull. 💀 Might help with the migraines too!

This guy is absolutely hilarious!

The 2nd android temporally dis able by pocket sand. LOL.

The new IDAK defeated by sand in the eyes.😆😆😆

Alright! IDAK!

The super android isn't particularly in a bad mood - except of course for the whole "Crush! Kill! Destroy!" thing.

Baseball is important.

Logan's run

Dee Hartford is so beautiful.

Mark from land of the giants

Verda has clearly forgotten that Doctor Smith ordered her from the machine seventeen episodes earlier. That is understandable. Who in their right mind would want to be Doctor Smith's servant.

David Irving At the point 18:15 The Robot is almost as hostile to Verda as Caroline was to Alison Carr in Sons and Daughters. Caroline was my favourite character in Sons and Daughters. Sons and Daughters was an Australian TV show. Alison Carr was a female version of Doctor SMITH.

One reason so much of Smith's dialogue is similar is that he rewrote most of it. He and the other actors said he was pretty much given carte blanche to do whatever he wanted with the dialogue. He came up with most of the alliterations. Bill Mumy said that sometimes they would run lines, but Harris would give him the changes he had made, usually, of course, making sure Smith had the majority of the lines. I don't think he rewrote scenes he wasnt in, but most of his dialogue he rewrote. And he really did have a bad back. His first "the pain, the pain" was an adlib because his back was hurting. It became a continual complaint, but notice it didn't bother him here when being thrown around by IDAK.

Want more killing, less crushing and destroying.

It seems like the writers were on a constant coffee break.

24:52 Yeah, yeah... But does it have a retractable cord?

Positively luv the narration. Not srcstic, kinda revealingly analytical.

The woman android must be from dallas, tx. I can tell by the crazed look on her face and those things sticking out of her head.......

I believe Maureen would have been jealous of Verda.

Dave Irving At 26:49 Correction everybody is working hard to get this thing operating except Dr. Zachary Smith.

When are they going to show the new episodes of lost in space on Netflix

Idak Alpha 12 was played by Don Matheson that also played another character on show named Rethos that had a wife and son. He also played Mark Wilson on Land of the giants and married Deanna Lund that played Valerie on Land of the giants and they had daughter Michele. Since then both Don and Deanna have died.

So this was the episode where you finally lost it with the inane writing? LOL

Its a tv series story line. Granted smith was a d*ck but that was Jonathon Harris's character.

At the end, Verda says she knows of a place that she and IDAK can go where they will never be found. I don't understand why they didn't just go there to begin with, or why she didn't.

Between the point 2:25 and 2:40 I understand what you are saying David Irving, Doctor Smith seems to get away with murder. I am afraid that is the Irwin Allen produced the episodes from His Majesty Smith to the Galaxy Gift. As I said Irwin Allen likes the Doctor Zachary Smith character as much as Will does at least. Do you watch "Home and Away at all? There is was a character in it called Alf Stewart who makes Don West seem as lovely as Penny. If Alf Stewart was in Don's place he would make the way Don West was towards Doctor Smith very tame indeed. If Don went away and Alf Stewart from Home and Away took his place, Doctor Smith would be whining loudly "Please Major West, please come back I beg of you." Alf Stewart has hated people who were only a fraction as bad as Doctor Zachary Smith!.

I'm not sure if Dr. Smith knows what a female is.

Oooooh IDAK. Hate IDAK.

At the point 27:50 I do not understand howWill can put down his female sisters over Doctor Smith. Doctor Smith is about as useful as a five year old girl.

At the point 5:06 Verda's silver skin has been transformed to the colour of human skin. Now that is very far fetched. As far fetched as a woman of 62 looking as young as June Lockhart does in the series.

First time watching one of your videos. I dare say I liked it a whole lot. I'll check out some more, tomorrow (almost midnight here).

Is Zack Hample one of the androids?

That is a judo gi not a karate gi!

Dave Irving Why does Verda have springs out of her head?

For as much as you complain about this series. One wonders why you dedicate so much time to it!?!?!?!?!

Did DC comics have any idea this was made?.

Please stop making fun of my favorite childhood show! You're like my older brother. He used to make fun of the show whenever I watched it! 😂

Are there any Lost in space jokes

Just wish he didn’t talk so much. Ruins the clip
