Though not necessarily one of my favorite science fiction series from the mid-20th century, “Lost in Space” does have a particular place in my mind, due to its very particular design, which seemed to combine the contemporary styles of the time with more “futuristic” imagery. I remember watching the series a little when I was younger, and although the narrative, I would argue, wasn’t nearly as interesting as the narratives of, for example, “The Twilight Zone” or “The Outer Limits” there was something appealing, and humble about watching this family’s adventures as they traverse through space. And, as I (somewhat belatedly) discovered, Netflix did end up recreating the series, putting their own mark on the narrative of the Robinson family.
