I never get tired of anything 'lost in Space". I'm so glad others feel the same way. Keep the videos coming Dan!
Hey, thank you so much I really appreciate that :-)
I did and I do.. and I will continue to watch your channel.. Thank you..I love it.
Couldn’t stand Dr Smith. Made it unwatchable. That was when the show was new, BTW. a nerdy classmate would do his Dr Smith panic attack, that was pretty good.
I actually just watched the original Lost in Space last night on METV. It's on @1:30 am
What happen to Ape city...that would a great video.
My childhood was filled with lost in space, star Trek, voyage to the bottom of the sea, etc. Love this channel and keep up the great work 👍
‘voyage to the bottom of the sea ‘. The flying sub was the coolest!!!!
I always loved the really cool sound of the Jupiter 2.
I watched Lost in Space every day after school. I remember telling my aunt one time that: I was going to be on Lost is Space. I was convinced. I told her to watch that with in a couple to a few weeks that I would be on Lost in Space as Will's friend... Never happened, of course. But I have always wanted a full-size version of the robot. I still do!!!
Maybe I still will have one if I could find either one already built and fully working OR a full parts kit and put it together myself at 66+ yrs now.
I know "The B-9 Club" - I could never get a response when I tried to contact them.
Anyway, I only started off with this comment to tell about my telling my aunt that I was going to be on the show in a few weeks... and that's all I got to say about all that.
What happened to THE INVADERS with Ray Thinnes(David Vincent) space craft was similar to Jupiter
I’m OG LiS. I remember the excitement for the premier, and how that robot scared the crap out of me premier night. Like close my eyes scared. Anyway, on one of our family trips from SF to LA around 1969ish around the area where there used to be tons of oil rigs, I saw the full size Jupiter 2 sitting flush to the ground surrounded by a bunch of portable buildings. It was and IIRC a radar dish where the dome used to be. 🤷♂️ no idea if it was for TV or a movie, but I saw it and it was in view for easily a minute. I was super excited.
My favorite TV Series as a kid growing up in the 60's. I remember being so mad when they cancelled one weeks episode.I managed to find the TV stations phone number, call it, talk to the program director and yell at him. My parents then yelled at me , when they got the long distance telephone bill.
Excellent show I enjoyed your comments film clips and history so much!!
A few questions for your upcoming interior sets. What is that room on the top deck to the left of the elevator that people so often go into and come out of? I own every single tape of the Show and have NEVER seen whats inside. I have speculated that where the chariot is? What are fans thoughts?
Heres another one. on the lower deck there are shown Dr. Smiths cabin, Wills cabin, Pennys cabin and Prof and Mrs. Cabin. Where are Don and Judy?
I have seen one show somewhere , dont ask me where which show the top of the astrogater rising up on a pole so it fits inside the top bubble on the outside of the ship. I know thats not in the Series, but was this something done and perhaps never shot?
I know the interior just doesn't match what its suppose to contain, just physically impossible.
One thing that always made me go "huh?" as a kid was there were about 6 different laser gun props used through the run of Lost in Space. I feel that a deep dive into these would make a fascinating episode! This included pistols, rifles and the rarely seen "knuckleduster" gun. Thanks in anticipation! :)
That is an awesome idea :-) thanks for the tip. Dan :-)
@@MoviesMusicMonsters You are very welcome! :)
I see that Robert Kinoshita died at 100 years old. God bless.
He was an amazing man and I was glad to know him :-)
I love Saturdays because that’s when your new videos get released.
I love the timeless design of the Jupiter 2. When they made the movie in 1998 and the Netflix series I really wanted them to keep the original design, with a few modern twists. It’s good to know some of the models are still out there. Thanks again for keeping those memories alive.
You bet :-) and more importantly, thank you for watching and for your support. :-) Dan
I don't understand why you don't have a million subscribers. The UA-cam algorithm is really slacking.
Hey, thanks so much. This channel started taking off mid december. So it's only been a couple of months :-) I'm thankful for the subscribers I have, but I'm sure it will go up :-) thanks again, Dan
I love your channel because
I've always wondered whatever happened to some of the iconic props & costumes
Hey thanks so much :-)
R.I.P. Mark Goddard, October 10, 2023.
Don West. I did not know.
Hello Dan just happened to browse videos and came across this one and I really really enjoyed what you had to show us. I’m 64 years old and I really loved and enjoyed watching lost in space. I also have a copy of the robot that I purchased from an estate sale. The robot is the one from
Productions and stands about 10 1/2 inches tall. I feel so very fortunate to have found the robot from a show that I really enjoyed as a child. Again, thank you for sharing.
Dan, your videos are always a highlight of my week ! Seeing someone as passionate about my favorite childhood memories as I am warms my heart ! Keep up the great work, sir !
Loving your enthusiasm Man - I loved that show when I was a kid, been interested in Space ever since.
Not only are Dan's videos loads of fun to watch, but the comments are fun to read too.
Very interesting stuff...thanks for more memories
You are so welcome and thank you for watching :-)
Lost in Space among my top favourite shows of the sixties. Thanks for another great video
I reall, really wanted that full sized Jupiter 2 in my backyard when I as a kid.
Haha :-) me too
For those who watched the original BATMAN TV show of the 60s; if you pay close attention to the inside of the “BATCACAVE” you will see the “innards” of the Jupiter 2 set;
Good to know.
Thanks for that. 🇦🇺 😊
Loved this video! I have to say, this is my favorite ship from the entire science fiction genre of TV shows and films!
Mine too :-) thanks so much for the support. Dan
I'm amazed that you are able to find all those pictures and information about the Jupiter 2.
Yet another great one dan.
Thanks Max :-)

I had a crazy crush on Penny . Maybe the main reason I watched the show.
Yup , I'm old. 72
She is still very pretty. I love her white hair.
I know everyone pretty much says the remake movie was trash but it was my introduction to Lost in Space. I always thought seeing the shape of Jupiter 1 from the movie was pretty cool as it was an homage to the 2 from the original show.
It was a gateway, perhaps, to people finding the original show. I think the intentions were correct but the execution was pretty bad.
Well, it's happened! I cannot even remember how I found this, but Dan, you have become my No. 1 'cast to watch and re-re-rewatch on the internet. Your content is awesome. Thank you. You have a new 66 year old aboard. Keep this content coming. Love to see some Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea stuff as well. I went nuts when you had the shots of the Flying Sub on this video. And thank you! That little Robot voice-under with the projector on your Signature is like music to my ears.
Thanks, Dan. I was a big fan in 6th, 7th, and 8th grades watching LIS. It was on Wednesday evenings. I loved that show. I still watch reruns on Saturday nights in Chicago.
That's awesome :-) it's still a lot of fun to watch.
Really enjoyed this one thanks Dan! One little thing,City Beneath the Sea was aired on TV as a pilot in 1971,and the flying sub was recycled as one of many aqua foil subs that belonged to Pacifica.the old aurora flying sub models were used in this production as the slight in accuracy of the models were hard to miss.The Lyedecker brothers worked their magic on voyage to the bottom of the Sea especially with the flying sub, flying outside in some shots against the real sky,real object and real sky=highly convincing effect
Great video. I remember having a model of the flying sub when I was a kid in the 60's.
Excellent job. I always watched this show after school as a kid in the 70s. Great hearing most of the ship props survived.
As Mr. Spock would say, fascinating! Oops! Wrong franchise. I've seen "The Girl From The Green Dimension" 100 times and never noticed the 10 foot Jupiter 2 in the background! I'm glad at least some of the models survived!
Me too :-) thanks for the support, appreciate it :-) Dan
This is so fascinating! I grew up watching LiS on VHS in the 90s (I still have the complete set) and I was also very isolated in my passion for it, none of the kids at school even knew what Lost in Space was - it didn’t show on television in the 90s in Australia. To this day I’m the only fan I know personally. (Except my dad)
It’s so great to finally get some really high quality, informative and passionate content about Lost in Space, I could listen forever. Your videos are excellent. Thanks!
The giant cavemen intended to attack the Jupiter 2 eventually appeared attacking the Enterprise shuttle commanded by Spock, extraordinary how these things get recycled.
Dan, thanks for bringing back my childhood!!! I love anything Lost in Space 💜
The Jupiter 2 is one of my favorite spaceships. When I was a kid, I wanted to live in it. 😃
You basic flying saucer. But I did like the color wheel that was also duplicated on the space pod.
I get sucked in so fast when I watch your videos. The behind the scenes content is so fun. Thank you.
The ship was like the Tardis, bigger on the inside.
Quite true.
Dan, I have some more ideas of Sci-fi TV series you can talk about. First there is the classic Smallville TV series which ran for nearly a decade with ten seasons. Then there is "Grimm" with six seasons. It had a lot of exciting episodes of the Grimm detective and his partner investigating the crimes perpetrated by the Wesen and had to deal with secret organizations. Both Smallville and Grimm weren't suddenly cancelled and had closure to the series at the end. I have Grimm on a boxed set on DVD, and recently watched the whole series again on the CW which is free to watch.
Now I'm currently watching "The Gifted" once again about people that have the X-gene giving them superpowers of some kind but hunted and persecuted by the government. It's also on the CW for free. Please keep adding more of your TV and movie analysis videos. Thanks, and I'm glad I found your interesting channel and had subscribed.
Fantastic work sir. Keep it up!
Hey, thank you so much :-) appreciated. Dan
Even though I am far too young to remember any of these films or tv shows, I am really enjoying this format of "What Happened To..." 😊
Thank you for the continued (and quality) “Lost in Space” content!
Hey, thank you so much for watching :-) more to come, Dan
Watching your presentation brought back a flood of memories from when i was a kid. I loved that show along with "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea". Thanks!
They really need to come out with a lost in space 2 movie, the first one was so bad ass.❤
Just wanted to say , I love your channel and the topics you cover. I am a huge fan of sci fi from the 50's 60's and 70's. Keep up the great work.
Hey, thank you so much I really appreciate that. Thank you for watching :-) stay tuned, more to come. Dan
Love your Videos Man, this is bringing back our Childhoods for alot of us. Also Sir, you have the most Incredible Voice. !!!! Keep up the great LIS Videos, we LOVE them. !!!
thank you for a wonderful trip down memory lane.
What a brilliant channel. Thoroughly fascinating. Thanks, Dan for answering the question about the fate of the full scale mock-up of the Jupiter 2. Sad.
I enjoyed your presentation very much. Your melodious voice was a plus!
Hey there :-) thanks for the awesome comment. Appreciate it :-)
Great video Dan !!! I watched Lost in Space as a kid and still do sometimes now.
Your just awesome with all the back round stuff you come up with
You are too cool for school, my brother! Thanks for all the fun!
Great content and presentation!
Hey, thank you so much :-) Dan
Thanks! Always great to see where famous props ended up!
loving your channel. thanks for the cool facts.
You never cease to amaze me Dan! These videos are so fun! I am recommending this channel to everyone! Thanks.
I remember watching "City Beneath the Sea," and immediately recognizing the Jupiter 2 models with windows cut into them. It was like someone turned the White House into a cheap motel.
Yes such a shame, but at least they've been restored :-)
I always wondered how the lower level had so much space for everybody's room, the galley and the power core. Where were the chariot and the shuttlecraft stored? Did they have a little help from Doctor Who with some transdimensional engineering?
Great info, Thanks Dan , I still watch Lost in Space every Saturday night on MeTV from Phoenix, AZ. 🌵🛸
Remember the LiS episode with B-9 vs. Robby?
I'm so grateful for your careful and relevant work. This is history at its best, narratives about series that had real social impact, technical and artistic value and outstanding emotional value. Wonderful indeed!
There is an old Disney movie called escape to witch mountain. Eddie Albert stared as an old widower who found/was found by a couple strange kids. Long story short he helps them escape from the corrupt millionaire who's trying to use their powers for his own purposes. At the end of the movie you find out the kids are aliens and you see them fly off in a ship that looks very much like the Jupiter 2.
What a flaming shame that someone didn't have the foresight to salvage the full size mock up. What a great museum piece it would be.
Dan , I’m 71, have been a Lost in Space for years. I love everything you bring to this channel and I have one request,, can you give my EULOGY when I pass? Your voice is amazing 😀 also great channel!!!
Haha :-) you bet :-) but you're going to live for another 30 years I promise :-) Dan
Hi Dan thanks for making the videos, they are so interesting.Keep up the good work many thanks.
I have a memory of what was left of the full scale Jupiter 2 appearing in a scene of CHiPS. I think it was a helicopter flyover as well. Not sure if I have the show right, but it did appear as a backlot prop in another tv show and in pretty sad condition. It was missing it windows for one.
Well without a doubt this is absolutely my favorite video that you have done so far… My love for the Jupiter II started when I was five years old when I saw the previews for the upcoming series. I was transfixed, as so many people were, by that HAUNTINGLY majestic flying saucer going by that 'alien' rock formation. From that moment on, and for the rest of my life I have had a special love for the beautiful Jupiter II. Thank you again Mr. Monroe… A standing ovation to you!!!
Hey, thank you so very much. The support has been overwhelming since this channel took off about 2 months ago. It's a bit overwhelming but I'm so glad people are enjoying the content :-) have a great one, Dan
This is very well done Dan.
I always have felt the Jupiter 2 was a great looking saucer.
Brilliant Dan! Thanks heaps for all your work!
Awesome to see someone giving us fans real insights to
Lost in space
That's cool you're able to do your show from the inside of the Jupiter 2.😀 That robot is still my favorite by far of all movie and TV robots.
Thank you Dan
Thank you for watching :-)
As a kid in the late 60s and early 70s Lost in Space was one of my absolute favorite TV shows EVER. I really enjoyed this thx!!
Great video thanks Dan!! Probably one the coolest jobs ever to be on set as a production designer model maker making these scaled models. They still look more real than the cgi stuff we see today imho. Especially the Enterprise from the original Star Trek. Could you do a video on that possibly? Great channel.
This is the video that sucked me into your channel! Great job! Who wouldn’t want to have an original Jupiter 2 prop!? When we were kids, my brothers and I would use two paper plates to make a Jupiter2! We used half of a plastic bubblegum toy container for the dome…we used the boots from the Matt Mason toy Captain Lazer boots for the landing gear! When you’re a kid, andyour desperate, and you have a fertile imagination…you make do!
The architect in this SciFi geek was forever frustrated in trying to fit the interior elements (including the “basement” BELOW the lower deck cabins and space for the shuttle therein) when drawing out the deck plans and sections as a kid.
This was a cool video I grew up on this show!
Was my favorite tv show when i was a kid in the 60s still think the J2 is the coolest flying saucer ever!
Yet another fine show, really liking your stuff.
That was fun. Thanks.
Even as a kid I wondered how could so much stuff be packed into the Jupiter 2, like the Chariot?
I just wanted to be with Judy. Even at age 7, I knew what I wanted. Julie Newmars cat suit haunts me to this day.
There is only ONE cat woman! Still in love decades later!
@@asmith7876 There were 3: Julie Newmar, Lee Meriwether, and Eartha Kitt.
@@krane15 Eartha Kit?? Ugh! Lee Meriwether is attractive and played in the movie because Julie Newmar couldn’t at the time. But Julie Newmar is insanely beautiful, the other two barely count! 😂😂😂
YOUR NOT THE ONLY ONE. ,, that had that dream. 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Dan, I was in a Planet Hollywood , I think in Orlando about 15 years ago, and they had a model Jupiter 2 hanging from the ceiling. Since many of their props were real, I assumed it was too. They also claimed, (and had in the lobby) one of Judy Garlands blue / white gingham dresses from the Wizard of OZ, along with many other movie props.
Good memories of when I was a little guy.
Well, it might have been a bit much to expect the studio to store the full size mock-up of the Jupiter 2.
First time viewer and I LOVED this! Thank you soo much for making this. Can't wait to watch more! Subscribed!
Mattel toys didn't have a toy drone version of the Jupiter 2. They would have made millions of dollars in sales. (They only made the Roto jet plastic gun) Thanks.
Thanks for another fascinating, informative episode! I'm hooked on Movies, Music and Monsters!
Man I really enjoy your channel content and professional presentation, great job sir
Thank you for this video! It was so cool to see all the different models. I'm a total fanatic with the Jupiter and the Robot
Great stuff thank you!
So cool I discovered your channel!
The odd part is that there could not have been a lower level on the ship if you look at the pics. There is no way that lower deck could have housed all sleeping quarters and kitchen with those slanted walls. And where was the chariot stored?
you did it again Dan. This is probably the most concise to the point and detailed information on the subject that I have yet seen. Yes doing the interiors that may be more than one episode.
I'm sure I echo the feelings of many fans in wishing that when the lost in space movie was made it had looked a lot more like the TV show. And sad to say the lost in space movie wasn't very original. It looked way too much like the Star Trek movies and Star Wars. Now how's that for creativity? might as well have stuck with the original Jupiter two, just make it bigger and more detailed and a little more practical and realistic. I can say the same thing about Star Trek even their movies and the spinoff shows.
It is still hard to beat 2001 a space odyssey for a more realistic outer space adventure show.
Thank you again Dan and best wishes to all the other fans on this UA-cam channel.
I don't know. 🤔 It seems to me by just looking at it, it didn't really seem to have enough bottom room for the lower deck?
Your quite right. Remember the episode when Will and Dr. Smith went into the "Power Core" I assume this was the very bottom , but recall how big that was? Just stuff didn't match up
As a kid, I dreamed about flying the Jupiter 2, anywhere I wanted to go; as an adult, I still do...when I just need to get away from all the craziness on Earth.
Great video! Amazing detective work on the history of the JUPITER 2! I was waiting for the Robot to say "Danger! Danger! Dan Monroe!"
I wanna live in a house that looks like the Jupiter 2 .
Awesome! These are some of my favorite videos!
Hey, thank you so much :-) I truly appreciate it. Dan
Recent sub here. Dan you’ve got a UA-cam hit channel on your hands here. Great stuff. Great hair. Great voice.
