Deadliest of the Species is terrible. Watch this only if you want to view every episode and see the only one which The Robot says "Danger, Will Robinson, Danger".
Because of the very good beginning, "Danger, Will Robinson, Danger" and how well done the alien leader is, this gets a "3" instead of a "1". Other than that, this is ridiculous and embarrassing.
The Robot is turned into blubbering love-sick mess, in "love" with a manipulative female robot. It is painful to watch and impossible to enjoy. It was actually appropriate for Dr. Smith to rip into him and mock him!
This story, if done right (without the lovesick stupidity),could have actually been a very good episode. But that is not the case. The ending is also very poor.
PS: Although this was the 11th episode to air, it was actually the 4th produced. Evidence that the quality of Season Three had actually had a major drop in quality sooner than realized, at the time.
