Haha Ethan,
I love the comment! Hey last night i was deep into the early morning hours and could not stop watching Season 3. I can see why this show has such a cult following. I love the humor and season 3 looks better and the stories for the first episodes seem to be not bad at all. Confined to my bed for just a few more days i hope to finish all of season 3. I then will have 50 Giant epsiodes and the first season of LIS. I can see how kids could really connect with this show. I saw the movie. The only Irwin Allen series to make it to film is LIS. The producers should have followed the comic and not the serious as I am sure all LIS fans would agree and stated at the time of the films release. Here the new Dark Shadows movie did the reverse of LIS Producers. I think the DS movie is fun to watch and I enjoyed it unlike the LIS film.
The special effects are great in Season 3. Looks like they put a great deal of money into LIS for it's last season. The walking around the J2 is great. I love the Time Tunnel sets being used and I could see the Tunnel as the J2 returns to earth. The space pod is like the flying sub for the show. I know all this is nothing new to you fans. I just have never watched the show and I am viewing it cold with help from my pain pills of course.
I am leaning toward Giants since it was a show i did watch as a kid. I want to leave season 1 of LIS for last. I also have Mannix coming in July plus Dark Shadows episodes and i wanted to sample old Dallas episodes.
I also want to thank Gary for getting me into all this Irwin Allen fun. I really mean it! I enjoy LIS!
