CBS Network Sales Pitch: “Lost in Space”

I was a kid when Lost in Space premiered and I loved it.

Unfortunately, the success of the Batman tv show convinced the producers that camp would make Lost in Space even more popular.  I loved Batman and the crazy villain guest stars, but wanted a more “serious” Lost in Space.

If you’ve ever seen Lost in Space, you know how much it changed after the first season.  You’ll also probably be surprised at how different Lost in Space became when compared to how it was first pitched.  Check out the video below of CBS Presents: Network Sales Pitch.
