Some new humanoids have arrived on the planet. While the Robinsons are trying to communicate with them, Dr. Smith is crying doom and gloom and invading armadas.

Admittedly, this was one of the best episodes. The lesson here is that often, people who look and act different from the "norm" are treated with suspicion and hostility.

One of the better episodes of the series, with some moral lessons on prejudice, xenophobia, and the error of listening to fear and war-mongers. ( And EVER giving Smith a laser gun)!!!

One of my favs too! The Taurons energy weapon was so cool that a few years ago I scratch built one from pictures. I put a 1 watt blue laser in the business end. I liked the the alien mother, her eyes expressed so much, you knew exactly how she felt.

1:08. Don: “It’s dematerializing”. The first instance of this in the show, I believe even before Star Trek aired its first episode introducing the transporter, (but after Bewitched, which did this all the time)! Dave’s biggest pet peeve that EVERY alien in the show could travel by blinking in and out! The slow fade-in/fade-out was the coolest method. It really got annoying starting season 2 when it was accompanied by an explosion of flash powder in front of the camera!

Correction: This was actually 1st done in the last episode, Invaders from the 5th Dimension. The aliens “blinked” both Smith and Will inside and outside their spaceship. As far as John and Don are concerned, they only saw Will reappear at the same time as The spaceship was destroyed. In all that excitement and happiness to get Will back, they probably gave no thought that Will just reappeared out of thin air!

Dave, I do appreciate your respect for life, but don’t think many people considered the Cylops as an intelligent being! More like a carnivorous giant bear walking on 2 legs! I was always curious about this creature. What did it live on? Since wildlife food sources seemed rather scarce. Plus how did it, (or they), survive the planet’s hot and cold cycles? Did it grow that big in one cycle? I know, I know! The just used the scenes from the pilot, with no intention of following up! And the planet’s hot and cold orbit was made up for the Hungry Sea, and soon dumped afterwards. As for the Taurons, they did look like humans, but they are an unknown, and humans instinctfuly fear the unknown. Honestly, if this guy showed up at the bus stop when your kid got off, and looking at him like this, wouldn’t you be creeped out??

As I understand it, Harris didn’t re-write the shows. Just his own dialog. Later on he worked with Billy and Bob May to work out scenes with Smith, Will, and the Robot! They got a routine going! Harris never re-wrote the plots of the shows, as far as I know!

Good question! There were no other humans to give them a cold. I don’t feel the earth cold virus would be able to lie dormant in the human body that long! I may be wrong. It would have been an interesting episode if they got an alien virus that was far more drastic symptoms. Would have been a good show for Maureen, since she was “supposed” to be a Doctor of Biology in the original pilot! She could have found a vaccine! Instead of just cooking, cleaning, and doing the “space laundry”! Too far progressive for ‘60s television!

This episode has an exchange reminiscent of Star Trek: During the height of the crisis, Maureen begs John to confront the aliens. John replies that if they were on Earth, he'd know exactly what to do. But in space, they can't know how to handle these sorts of the things. If they were to misstep and it would be so easy to do, they might not know how to recover.

In the TV show, “The Orville”, (which I highly recommend to Star Trek TOS and TNG fans), they don’t have the transporter tech, but use small shuttle craft to transport. But they do have the “Holodeck”, which is overused in the show, sometimes in very, uh “weird ways”!

I rent. So I can't. Acknowledging the country's sordid history is not being "down on" it. It's acknowledging history. If you're too ashamed to be able to do that maybe you should ask yourself why. And your question is easy. Military bases all over Germany, France, Belgium, all the NATO countries, you think they don't all answer to us? Nationalism is stupid.
