ThiefHott Too much of everything
Fairaher The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
Zlatica One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.
Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable
Randall Spychalla I loved this show as a little kid. The humor was clearly designed for young children, so anyone viewing episodes now on YouTube might find the show dumb. As a kid, the show was nice escapist fantasy for me. I used to wish I could go on their adventures with them and finally see what's in the back rooms of the saucer. The silly humor added to the show's appeal, and I think that comedians Ruth Buzzi and Jim Nabors were the perfect choices for the androids with their bright sunshiny optimism, which is in sharp contrast to today's surprisingly darker characters that you find in a children's program. They also chose a catchy tune for the theme song, which I like to this day.
peribell The Lost Saucer was one of my favorite Saturday morning TV shows as a child. I loved it! The Lost Saucer was a live-action series with all the energy and fun of a cartoon. It was wonderfully zany and anything could happen as they traveled through both space and time. It was wild! Where else on Saturday mornings could you encounter a "Chickephant"? LOL! The cast and characters were also terrific. Jim Nabors and Ruth Buzzy were a perfect zany comedic duo for a kid's show. Alice Playten and Jarrod Johnson were both wonderful. The show's heart was in the right place too. It wasn't cynical or mean. The Lost Saucer was always fun and positive. I enjoyed it immensely. I have a lot of happy childhood memories of this show. I wish they'd release it on DVD.
raysond This was one of the weakest shows of its day and believe me it is excruciatingly bad. The most absurd show to ever grace from the minds of Sid and Marty Krofft. The show "The Lost Saucer" was one of the weakest links as part of one of the segments of "The Krofft Supershows" which was part of ABC-TV's Sunshine Saturday Morning schedule. However,this version was the sorriest out of the bunch and it was right up there with other weaker Krofft shows of the period which include "Far Out Space Nuts" to name a few that came around during the mid-1970's Getting back to "The Lost Saucer",who in their right state of mind would have thought of casting Ruth Buzzi(of Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In fame)and of all people Jim Nabors(yeah,you heard right,Gomer Pyle)as two repulsive alien robots who kidnapped or you might say abducted two replusively annoying suburban kids from their beloved home and goes with them in there spaceship were they are lost beyond compare.The aliens themselves were even stupidier than the kids but in all aspects,the aliens didn't know what in the hell they were doing as their ship goes outside the orbits of Earth and ends up going toward the uncharted reaches of outer space. Why did the kids ended up with them on this ship is one thing,and being "lost in space" is another. The series ended up shown on the outskirts of Sunday mornings where it was finally gotten rid of permanently in the summer of 1977,after 10 episodes.
Bossmoss Come on, let go of your inner critic, man! This show was cool! I really wish there were shows like this today, for my own kids to watch. No cynicism, no meanness, just good clean fun! I especially liked the Dorse and the Chickephant. This giant half-chicken, half elephant thing that lumbered along and pecked at the UFO? Inspired and surreal. Just plain silliness.In retrospect, the plot is very similar to that of Doctor Who... Time travelers pick up young people and then can't get them back home. Somehow that makes it even cooler."Oh no, it's the Chickephant!"
