Lost in space

We settled in with the first disk of the DVD set tonight. I think a fine drinking game would be to take a shot every time Maureen stares dumbly and adoringly at her husband.

I was very impressed though at the space walking scene. The first episode aired in September 1965. The first US spacewalk was only 3 months earlier on June 3, 1965. The first spacewalk ever (by a Soviet cosmonaut) was only shortly before that on March 18, 1965.

Argh. Such a dumb show. Every galactic entity they ran into spoke English and somehow the Robot was programmed with all relevant data on Galactic law and protocol. Ah, well, it had it's moments, like when the giant cyclops thing grew rocks at the chariot.

Here's something to consider. The pilot (in which the space-walking scene is seen) was shot before either real life space walk.
