This show really needs a proper reboot. Not that Will Farell blasphemy, but a dark show like the original. There’s a LOT you can do with the pylons, Sleestak, and other people/creatures who get caught in the Land.

The Nick series was actually rather good, and and, I believe, ended up axed due to budget issues since it was expensive to make. There's also the few scripts that got canned because they, initially, wanted to tie it, heavily, into the original series as more of a TNG style continuation where they have Holly as a main cast member introduced later on in it and more consistent with the first seasons of the original, but there were other issues and they decided to go with making it a more distinct universe. If you want something relatively similar in theme, though more aimed at an older audience, "Sir Arthur Conan Doyles The Lost World" was a very interesting one that was more heavily based on Land of the Lost than the book the characters were semi-based off of.

As a channel that makes land of the lost content, and the moderator of the Land of the Lost subreddit, thank you for making this video! I always love seeing more young fans out there. I discovered the series in the exact same way as you as a kid, with my siblings, flipping through tv. Been obsessed ever since. We would love to have you over in the subreddit, could I share this video there?

I really was born at the perfect time and place. I watched “Land of the Lost” on its original run from age 7-9, saw “Star Wars” in the movie theater at age 10, and not long afterward I learned that Paul McCartney had been in another band before Wings. Being a ‘70s kid was the greatest.

I was one of those kids in the 70's who watched the show. About 10 years ago, I rented the series on DVD from Netflix. All those years later, it was still great fun! SPOILER ALERT: About the Confederate soldier: he actually did reappear in a later episode... sort of. In season 3, Holly meets the Medusa, the she-monster from Greek mythology whose gaze turns living things to stone. She shows Holly around her statue collection, which includes, unfortunately, a certain soldier. Holly recognizes him and is quietly horrified.

I was in kindergarten in the late 70s and Land of the Lost was still going strong in syndication. One day, in class, we were asked about the things we dream about. One common theme that popped up was dreaming about dinosaurs. My teacher finally had to say, "No more dinosaur dreams! What else do we dream about?" Sleestacks. We all dreamed about being captured by sleestacks.

Full disclosure, the only time I ever watch the show was when I was a real small child around ‘80/‘81. But it apparently made a huge impression on me. As weird as this sounds, I do remember the little girl with the blonde pixie tails in that checkered shirt. To this day anywhere I see that pattern I think of Land of the Lost. Especially that opening sequence. Also, for some reason tomato soup in a little yellow bowl and a grilled cheese sandwich. Maybe my mom used to make it or something who knows. All I know is you’ve unlocked some memories.

I remember liking the first two seasons, it was always on with different cable channels at my grandmothers, season 3 was one that I didn't see that much of. The reboot was good, though with some of the things revealed about early plans, I'd have loved the alternate story even more since it was a continuation rather than a reboot. The movie, however, was just horrible

Original watcher here. As pre SW 70s kids - our minds weren't blown by the effects, but we just accepted the reality/irreality of it all. We didn't have electronic toys and there was a recession so we didn't have that many toys to begin with, so make believe was an essential part of our play and television watching - such as in the Magic Garden, Sigmund, Sesame Street, Lambchop, Mr. Rogers, Dr. Who, etc. Additionally, the weirdness/creativity of these shows was the norm - keep in mind that the adults of this time writing the show were going through a cultural revolution that included a lot of hallucinogenic drugs and mind expanding soul searching and storytelling experimentation. Additionally, people then weren't afraid that big concepts like mortality or evolution were too much for kids to handle. Anyway - RIP Spencer Milligan.
