Jonathan Harris [1914-2002]: Dr. Zachary Smith

I hold completely immersed myself within the world of Lost In Space. Like anything else, I take on the task with dispel abandon [or until I get bored and offer up for a concise time]. I have been absorbing all things Lost In Space. So, I bring you all things Dr. Zachary Smith and the man who played him, the late, superb Jonathan Harris [1914-2002].

I stumbled across Starlog #248 [March 1998] from my collection. This got me thinking about how much I miss Starlog Magazine. Starlog was a wonderful science fiction publication and one of the rare breeds that genuinely embraced though science fiction investigations on any subject it touched. I do miss it so. There isn't a magazine on the market today that comes end. Starlog, like a number of publications stumbled in sales at the shift of the century and hung on as prolonged as they could before closing their doors. Given it's prestigious history and vast library of publications, it makes it all the more disappointing when considering it is gone. It was a truthful loss to folks prefer myself. In fact, getting back issues is not exactly easy today since its folding. Not only did they

Dr. Zachary Smith on Disoriented in Space

I'm watching reruns on MeTV.

Each week, Dr. Smith nearly gets everyone killed because he's dumb and wants to drag off some scheme.

Each week, the other characters yell at him; Major Don West looks like he wants to beat the crap out of him.

The actor pushes everyone's limits, but somehow manages to get people each and every time to offer him another chance.

It's challenging to believe Dr. Smith's portrayer, Jonathan Harris, never won an Emmy for his portrayal. Heck, he wasn't even nominated.

Dr. Zachary Smith represents trump in a former life, and Major West represents the overwhelmingly majority of the world.

I love lost in Room especially the first season where they tried to make it like a real Sci-Fi before they dumbed it down into a joke and document mache aliens.

They don't get a lot of credit for this but there is an episode where the ship's computer gets a virus. It

This weekend brings the annual Gay Identity festival festivities to West Hollywood, which is arguably the gayest city in the country if not the world. As one of relatively few straight men in WeHo, my preference for women may not be obvious as I walk through "Boys Town" on my way to the public pool. Thus I find myself identifying with Dana Carvey's old SNL character Lyle the Effeminate Heterosexual. And so might these nine notable men.

  1. Baz Luhrmann. First, a disclaimer: who knows what any of these guys got up to in their private lives? Certainly, many gay celebrities of the past got married and had children while keeping their same-sex lovers a private. Anyway, you might assume that only a homosexual could make lavish, over-the-top films like Moulin Rouge! and Strictly Ballroom, yet the dapper Australian director has been married to his costume/production designer Catherine Martin since 1997. They have two kids.
  2. LeVar Burton. Considering his soft-spoken personality, his drama geek background, his childhood wish to become a priest, and his involvement in AIDS and gay rights causes, you might be forgiven for thinking the Roots/Star Trek/Reading Rainbow star was gay. But Bu

    Let's talk about Lost in Space with a big <<SPOILER ALERT>> for those who haven't finished watching and expect to do so. With that out of the way, let us proceed :).

    As I contain said before, December of 2021 had lots of business options. One that I watched during the twelfth month was Netflix's Lost in Space, which saw its third (and last) season get released. One of the most important aspects of this show in previous seasons was Will Robinson (played by Maxwell Jenkins) and his association with the killer alien robots. So I was not surprised to notice this theme travel full circle with season three, because it was the alien robot really that started all of their struggles. If you don't know, it's because it attacked their ship and forced them to collapse land at the very beginning of the series in season one.

    In season 3, we obtain a lot of questions answered, and we also procure some incredible landscape shots that display that Netflix really dumped some wealth into this series to make it look good. Overall, I was very pleased. One of the highlights happened when they initiate a lost municipality that was built by the civilization that built the robots. Will Robinson plays with an alie

    Millions of Baby Boomers comprehend exactly who Dr. Smith was: the foil/ pain in the neck/ comic relief on the iconic sci-fi series Lost in Space(1965-68).

    A nuclear family (Mom, Dad, teenage girl, preteen boy and girl), blasts off into space to colonize Alpha Centauri (how are they planning to increase the population?)

    Enemy watcher Dr. Smith (Jonathan Harris) tries to sabotage the ship, so it won't reach its destination -- instead it will be Lost in Space.  But he is accidentally  trapped aboard.

    How on Earth is he going to be redeemed after that?

    Easy -- the writers just neglect about it, transforming him from evil to a pain in the neck, occasionally helpful ("I'll negotiate with the aliens"), occasionally devious ("I'll sell you the boy in exchange for passage home"), but usually just annoying ("I'm much too fragile to do any work!").   A vain, prissy, glutonous, lethargic, self-centered uncontrolled id. 

    Also the most interesting character amid the squeaky-clean Robinsons (quick -- name two nature traits of the teenage daughter).

    Dr. Smith spends a lot of time with preteen Will Robinson (Billy Mumy), whom he hugs, grabs theshoulder of, and calls "my boy
