- Quotes
Dr. Zachary Smith: Exciting news of a romantic nature always attracts listeners. My dear friends, you see before you the happiest man in the world: Sybila has promised to be my wife.
Maj. Don West: Not the witch?
Dr. Zachary Smith: I shall treat that slur with the contempt it deserves.
- Crazy creditsBesides playing sisters years earlier on The Danny Thomas Show, Sherry Jackson and Angela Cartwright have something else in common: Both quit show business when the quality of the parts offered them, if any, was unacceptable.
Featured review
Dogpatch meets the Munsters in outer space
Dad-gum space hillbillies who are also witches and were-wolves seed the Robinson's adopted plant with giant, carnivorous plants, meanwhile Ma Sybilla seems to be taken by Dr. Smith's self-serving romantic overtures. The silly story makes little sense and seems cobbled together from two distinct concepts: one involving a Lil'Abner aesthetic, the other kid-friendly horror-comedy motifs. Bodacious Sherry Jackson looks ridiculous in her Daisy Mae outfit, but is outdone by her towering, rag-attired silent brother Keel (Irwin Allen's usual 'man in the monster suit' Dawson Palmer). The episode's only saving grace is acid-tonged Sybilla (Mercedes McCambridge). Jonathon Harris's 'Dr. Smith' continues to descend into caricature and the show's frugal recycling of props and 'special effects' remains apparent. Once again the cargo that the Jupitar 2 carried into interplanetary space continues to amaze me - this time it's pith helmets. Dumb.
