Year 1: Black and White

The Reluctant Stowaway

In the year 1997, the Robinson family takes off in the Jupiter 2, America's first colonization mission to Alpha Centauri. However, a spy for a foreign country, Dr. Zachary Smith, sneaks on board and sabotages the mission by reprogramming the ship's robot to destroy the Jupiter 2 after launch. But Smith becomes trapped on board, and the Robinsons save the ship, but not before it's guidance system is damaged, and the Jupiter 2 becomes lost in space. [Note: Originally, the Robot was a villain, and not the good guy it would later become. Also, Dr. Smith was more ruthless.]

The Derelict

The Jupiter 2 is pulled into a giant alien spaceship, where they encounter an advanced race of bubblelike creatures. John and Don search for maps and equipment, while Dr, Smith and Will get into trouble.

Island in the Sky

While outside the ship, Prof. Robinson's parajets misfire, and he plummets towards the planet below. Don attempts to follow in the Jupiter 2, but Dr. Smith's sabotage causes the retro-rockets to fail, and the ship crash lands. They then search the planet for Prof. Robinson, using the space chariot. [Note: This is the first time the "space chariot"(a combination tractor and bus) is used.]

There Were Giants In The Earth

The Hungry Sea

John discovers that the planet's orbit will again carry it back towards the sun. The family heads back towards the Jupiter 2 in the Chariot, but encounter earthquakes and storms. They cross an island sea to reach their ship.

Welcome Stranger

The Robinsons find astronaut Jimmy Hapgood, also lost from Earth, on the planet. They help him repair his ship, which is in better condition, so that he can return to Earth. Mr. and Mrs. Robinson ask him to take Will and Penny with him, but Dr. Smith plots to have himself taken instead. However, Hapgood enjoys life in space, and no one returns to Earth.

My Friend, Mr. Nobody

Penny plays with an "imaginary" companion, actually a disembodied life force living below the surface. When Dr. Smith accidentally injures Penny, the companion unleashes its wrath across the entire planet, until Penny intervenes and calms it down, and then it undergoes a startling transformation.

Invaders From The Fifth Dimension

Luminous aliens capture Dr. Smith, and plan to replace their burnt-out computer with his brain. However, he bargains with them, and promises them Will's brain instead. Thus they are pitted against the Robinsons.

The Oasis

Smith eats some alien fruit before it can be tested, and grows into a giant. Convinced that the Robinsons were trying to kill him, he plots to finish them off. However, he is returned to normal size, and does not kill any Robinsons.

The Sky is Falling

The Robinsons find themselves unable to understand the electronic language of a visiting space family.

Wish Upon a Star

Banished from the Robinson Camp, Dr. Smith takes refuge in the wreck of an alien spaceship, where he finds a machine that can materialize anything one wishes. To get the Robinsons to allow him back into the Jupiter 2, he donates the machine to them. It then starts to play on their greed. The machine's original owner, a strange Rubberoid creature, then returns to retreive it.

The Raft

The Robinsons construct a small space craft capable of carrying two people back to Earth. Dr. Smith takes off in it, with Will, but it isn't on the Earth that they land.

One Of Our Dogs Is Missing

The Robinsons find a suspended animation test ship with a twenty-year-old dog in it. Then at night, food is being taken off the ship, and growling noises are heard. It's not the dog, however, but a giant, hairy mutant who attacks Judy, until the dog saves her.

Attack of the Monster Planets

Giant cyclamen plants, which duplicate anything put into them, make an evil duplicate of Judy, in an attempt to get the Jupiter 2's supply of deutronium fuel. The evil Judy feeds all of the fuel to the plants, while Dr. Smith refuses to tell the Robinsons where the real Judy is.

Return From Outer Space

Will is able to use the Tauron's maser device to transport himself back to Earth. However, nobody will believe that he is one of the Robinsons, or that they are shipwrecked.

The Keeper

An intergalactic zookeeper comes by, and the Robinsons are suspicious of the way he treats them as specimens, rather than humans, which is true. He decides to add Will and Penny to his menagerie. Hoping to steal the Keeper's ship, Dr. Smith sneaks on board, but accidentally lets all of the animals loose. The Keeper then says that if the Robinsons do not hand over Will and Penny, he will allow the dangerous monsters to overrun the planet.

The Sky Pirate

Will is kidnapped, and later befriends Tucker the space pirate, who is being chased by a creature from another galaxy.

Ghost In Space

Dr. Smith throws an explosive into a gaseous bog, creating an invisible, destructive force that threatens the Robinsons. Dr. Smith is convinced that the thing is the spirit of his uncle Thaddeus. While the Robinsons figure out how to capture it, Smith tries to exorcise it.

The War Of The Robots

Will finds a robot and repairs it. It helps the Robinsons with their chores, but is in actuality an evil robot created by an advanced race. It is programmed to have a will of its own, and it plans to capture the Robinsons for its masters, and destroy their Robot. [The robot used is actually Robby the Robot, from several MGM SF movies.]

The Magic Mirror

Penny, and her pet Bloop, Debbie (don't ask what a Bloop is! All I know is that it is something like a chimpanzee) fall through an alien mirror into another dimension, onto a planet inhabited by a lonely, nameless boy.

The Challenge

An alien and his son come to the Robinsons, and challenge John and Will to a test of strength and courage to prove their superiority over Earthlings. Unknown to the Robinsons, if John and Will win, they will all be killed.

The Space Trader

When a space merchant attempts to drum up business by destroying the Robinson's food supply, a hungry Smith promises to will his body to the trader in 200 years in exchange for food. Unfortunately, the fine print allows the trader to collect immediately.

His Majesty Smith

Smith is selected to be king of an alien civilization, but later finds the reason - the aliens select only the most useless creatures of the Universe, to be sacrificed to their primitive deities.

The Space Croppers

Hoping to get back to Earth, Smith romances the mother of a clan of space hillbillies, unaware that they are growing a crop of plants that feed on animal and human flesh.

All That Glitters

A space thief entrusts Penny and Smith with a neck-ring that turns anything the wearer touches into platinum. Smith betrays the thief and keeps the ring for himself, then accidentally turns Penny into platinum.

The Lost Civilization

According to the rules of an ancient civilization, Will must marry the princess he kissed and awoke from suspended animation. The civilization has been stockpiling soldiers in freezing tubes, and now plans to conquer the universe, beginning with Earth. [For a primitive planet, Earth attracted a lot of universe-conquerers!]

A Change Of Space

Will returns from a faster-than-light trip into the sixth dimension in an alien spaceship with his intelligence greatly enhanced. Smith, trying to repeat the incident, returns as an old man.

Follow The Leader

Knocked unconscious during a cave-in, John's mind and body are possessed by an alien warrior's spirit. When the rest of the Robinsons become suspicious of John's unusual behavior, he seals them up in the cave, and plots to throw Will off a cliff. Will exorcises the spirit through the power of his love for his father.

Blast Off Into Space

The Robinsons prepare for a quick takeoff when they find that a mining engineer blasting for a life-giving mineral has caused a chain-reaction of earthquakes that will disintegrate the planet.

Wild Adventure

Setting course once more for Alpha Centauri, the Robinson's journey is again hampered by Smith, who first dumps the ship's fuel into space, then almost pilots the Jupiter 2 into a sun. Then Athena, the Green Girl who wants the Jupiter 2's deutronium fuel for food, hypnotises Smith into going into space. The Robinson's rescue of him once again throws the ship off course, and they are again lost in space.

The Ghost Planet

A voice claiming to be from Earth instructs Smith to land Jupiter 2 on the planet it is passing. When Smith obeys, the Robinsons find a civilization of robots who make humans their slaves.

The Forbidden World

Jupiter 2 crash lands on a planet whose only inhabitants are a strange little hermit and his giant bird. Smith, Will, and the Robot are captured by the alien, who plans to mobilize an army to destroy the Jupiter 2. Of course, he has no army, as the Robinsons learn. Also, Dr. Smith drinks an alien nectar, later realizing that it is highly explosive, and he may blow up at any time.

Space Circus

A space circus comes to town (or planet), and give a show for the Robinsons. The owner learns that Will has the power to materialize anything he wants, when assisted. He convinces Will to run away with the circus, for the good of his family.

The Prisoners Of Space

An outer-space court accuses the Robinsons of various crimes during their journey, but after questioning, it is shown that Smith was the culprit behind each incident. The Robinsons convince the tribunal not to punish Smith [although I don't know why!].

The Android Machine

Smith finds a "Celestial Department Store catalog" and accidentally orders an emotionless "female" android, whom the Robinsons teach to be human. Unfortunately, the department store's manager, Zumdish, either wants payment, or the android back; preferably the android, since it has been improved upon. When the Robinsons refuse to cooperate, the manager takes steps to force them.

The Deadly Games Of Gamma 6

A travelling show lands on the planet, and the owner tells Smith that if he agrees to box with a midget and wins, he will be returned to Earth. However, it is a trick, and he loses. The troop is really testing Earth to see if it can be conquered easily, and to save it, John challenges the owner to a battle.

The Thief From Outer Space

Convinced that the Robinsons have maps which will lead him to a space princess, a thief captures Will, Penny, and Smith. Will is made an apprentice thief, Penny is held prisoner, and Smith is marked for death under a pendulum.

Curse Of Cousin Smith

An "alien" that Smith is terrified of turns out to be his cousin Jeremiah, who is in cahoots with an intergalactic Mafia in an attempt to murder Dr. Smith and claim his family inheritance.

West Of Mars

Smith's doppelganger, a space desperado, forces him to change clothes. Smith is then arrested as the real gunslinger, and is taken away to another planet to be executed for his "crimes."

A Visit To Hades

Smith plays a musical instrument he finds, and is transported to hell, or so he thinks. Actually, it's a prison for one criminal, who pretends to be the devil in order to get Smith to help him escape. Judy and Don also visit "hell". The key to his escape was hidden in the musical instrument, which playing causes him pain.

The Wreck Of The Robot

Aliens steal and disassemble the Robot in order to find out how Earth machines work. With that knowledge, they plan to build a machine to take over all other machines on Earth, and subjugate the human race.

The Dream Monster

To make his android more "human", a scientist drains all emotions from the Robinsons, leaving them unimaginative and apathetic.

The Golden Man

A lesson in prejudice. Two representatives from their respective planets, that are at war with each other, land on the Robinson's planet. One is a handsome golden man, the other a hideous frog creature. Dr. Smith wishes to help the Golden man destroy his foe, who claims to be the good guy, while Penny wants to help the other, who is unfriendly to strangers. It is later learned that the Golden man was wearing a disguise, and is even more hideous than his foe. He was trying to trick the Robinsons into helping him, but in the end, they saw the light.

The Girl From The Green Dimension

Athena, the green girl returns. A big, mean, ugly, nasty, green brute from her home dimension is courting her, and she draws pretty, handsome, brave, pretty Dr. Smith into a love triangle. The big, green lug of course wishes to kill Smith. Also, Will is accidentally turned green, but Athena thinks he looks too 'pretty' to change back.

The Questing Beast

A space knight, a sort of Don Quixote, arrives, claiming to be after a ferocious dragon he has chased across the cosmos. He fills Will with stories of quests and dragons and things, and when Will learns that most of his stories are lies, he loses faith in people. Meanwhile, the knight finally catches up with the dragon he has chased for most of his life, and finds out that it is a friendly, female, sentient life form, and loses the desire to slay her, and also his purpose in life.

The Toymaker

Smith is captured by a Celestial Department Store ordering machine (remember those?), made into a clown, and put into the toy department. Will and the Robot follow him into the machine, and discover a passage back to Earth.

Mutiny In Space

An insane space pirate, Zahrk, abducts Will, Smith, and the Robot and uses them as his crew in his relentless search for his first mate, Mr. Christiansen, who committed mutiny.

Revolt Of The Androids

The Phantom Family

Will discovers that his family has been replaced by android duplicates. Their creator wants Will to teach them how to act like real humans...or the original Robinsons will die.

The Mechanical Men

An army of tiny robots, all resembling the Robinson's Robot, lay siege to the Robinson's camp and demand the return of their 'leader', the Robot. The army is vicious, and want to take over the universe. They realize that the Robot is too kind to help them, so they transfer Smith's personality into the Robot, and vice versa.

The Astral Traveler

Will passes through a space warp into 19th-century Scotland, where a ghost and a monster inhabit an old castle.

But mercy arrives for both Smith and the ghost (and Angus the monster!) from beyond.

The Galaxy Gift

Penny's loyalties are tested when she must either watch her family die or give up an amulet an alien warned her not to. Other aliens will transport her to an unreal "Earth" as a reward, if she will sacrifice the gift. They persuade Dr. Smith to help them trick Penny.

The Condemned Of Space

Jupiter 2 lifts off only hours before the planet is scheduled to collide with a comet. In space once more, the Robinson's discover a ship full of frozen criminals. Smith releases one, who releases another, and so on, and so on...until a fullscale escape is mounted.

Visit To A Hostile Planet

The Jupiter 2 is thrust back in time and lands on Earth in the year 1947, 50 years before they left.

Determined to stay on any 'Earth', Smith joins the townspeople, and Will is captured.

Kidnapped In Space

Androids, ruled by a giant computer, capture the Jupiter 2 and force the Robot to operate on their failing leader. Meanwhile, Smith tampers with a time-control device and is turned into a little boy. Shockingly, John is killed by a laser beam. It is learned that the androids can control time.

Flight Into The Future

Will, Smith, and the Robot land the Space Pod on a planet which seemingly defies logic. They find fruit that explodes, invisible birds that cast shadows, a deserted wreck of the Jupiter 2, a monument to the Robot, and people who say they are the descendants of the Robinsons, and that the year is 2270 A.D.

Collision Of The Planets

Four space hippies are assigned by their leader to blow up the planet that the Robinsons are living on, without giving them time to make repairs and leave. Their only hope seems to be Smith, who has been transformed into a space-age Samson with green hair by a weird gas.

The evil John is willing to kill everyone to keep his freedom from the miserable anti-matter world.

Target: Earth

Shapeless aliens imprison the Robinsons and make themselves into their doubles (boy, they sure had a lot of problems with imposters), and then hijack the Jupiter 2, planning to go back and conquer the Earth (again! ) . They reprogram the Robot to help them. Will and Smith escape, capture their doubles, and replace them on the journey, in an attempt to stop them.

The Great Vegetable Rebellion

On another planet, Dr. Smith plucks a flower, arousing accusations of murder from a giant, talking carrot, who plans to punish the Robinsons by turning them into plants. [EGADS!]

Junkyard Of Space
