Land of The Giants - Behind the scenes

[@rodneygolden2796]

Irwin Allen, one of the greatest ever!

[@jonowens460]

He had qute the run didn't He😮😂😂😂

[@breakingnewsonsocialmediat8809]

Every time I wanted to remember my grandmother, I always watched this show as a young person I used to sit with her and watch this on tv every Sunday how I miss those days rip Nan

[@spikephotography]

A lovely memory to treasure ❤

[@tperk]

For whatever reason, my parents were just fascinated by this show. My dad just called it "The Little People" and wouldn't miss it each week.

[@leg414]

I watched this and all Irwin Allen shows during the original broadcast, and it actually inspired and spurred on the "Space Race" and inner/outer space research here on Earth. I loved shows like these because no "simulations", and no 'CGI" either! Peace

[@senorkapowssite]

As an 8 year old, growing up in Chile, I would not miss an episode of Land of the Giants on Sunday mornings, just before the Banana Splits came on and after the Thunderbirds... Use to love Sunday morning tv.

[@RobertGoldman-o2p]

This was the greatest Irwin Allen series ever made.

[@petervance6777]

He would say it was time tunnel🥰

[@lylarose2696]

This was such a great show.

[@Joy-of-collecting]

Land of the Giants was definitely my favorite show at that time so much that i actually had a Land of the Giants lunch box.

[@CaptRicoSakara]

Why hasn’t Netflix decided to produce a modern remake of this masterpiece like they did with Lost in Space still upsets me to this day. A modern remake would be just as epic in scope and execution.

[@spikephotography]

Genius idea!

[@victorsvoice7978]

Irwin Allen was truly a tv innovator. No one has ever come close to has output of tv science fiction shows. These shows inspire a whole new generation of fans.

[@TheHornet1fan]

to this very day, Spindrift is my all time favorite spaceship, closely followed by the Jupiter 2 and the flying sub. I would be jazzed to actually go aboard all 3.

[@PalmBeachDog]

When I was nine years old, I thought this was the greatest thing on TV but even at age 9 I thought the hand look like a giant inflatable life raft

[@andymok7945]

I bought the DVD set a few years back. I am watching them a 2nd time now. Effects were well done for the time.

[@timmartin7664]

I loved the Spindrift. That spaceship had no wings but it had a rudder and that was important🤣

[@rodneygolden2796]

Stefan Arngim and cast really GOT IT! The global, political overtones were ahead of their time 4 sure, but in a very REAL way. Look at the 🌎 🌍 world(s) generally today. Thanks!

[@HappyArchaeology-pu7ci]

Land of the giant's is awesome TV show I enjoy watching too love it 👌👍😃😎♥️♥️

[@lissette1886]

One of my favorite shows from the 80s ❤️

[@walkietalkietraveller2932]

from the 80s ???????

[@georgevavoulis4758]

Love all those series as a kid still do after all these decsdes

[@osvaldomonteiro7826]

i LOVE IT. SENSATIOANL, MAGIC....!

[@anthonycrnkovich5241]

A fantastic show and ahead of its time, the premise hasn't dated. The first season episodes especially weren't like anything else on TV at the time.

[@cornjobb]

even as a child, i innately knew that it was weird to have thunder crashing in outer space. and don't pay any attention to the fact that the giant vehicles in the land of the giants were provided by chrysler.

[@johnshields6852]

I was 8 when it aired, I loved it, one part that scared me, think they ran into a cat, and the thought of a tiny person in a cats mouth freaked me out.

[@favoritemustard3542]

Heck yeah, if you've ever seen a cat vs a field mouse... we don't even have a layer of fur for help.

[@jonowens460]

"Hand of the Giant"😂😂😂

[@mountainmantararua8824]

Deanna was my crush.

[@waynegordon4975]

It's great how they put it together. The actors playing the giants and the actors playing the earthlings were filming in different studios and never seen each other. I seen a photo once of a old convention of the actors together and Kevin Hagan who played the giant inspector kobick was pictured with them just looked funny seeing him with the actors who played the little people

[@TheTheo58]

Don Marshall and Kevin Hagan were reunited on Little House On The Prairie in Season 8 "Dark Sage" which aired on October 26th 1981. Don Marshall played Dr. Caleb LeDoux M.D. who came to Walnut Grove to assist Dr. Baker.

[@waynegordon4975]

@@TheTheo58 i remember that episode of Little House when Kevin Hagen and Don Marshall were in the scene together i thought that was a lovely episode.

[@CubanPete1990]

Hey 👋 wait a minute when this tv show ever been official released on DVD 📀 as a complete series?

[@mark-s]

Yes both seasons

[@chrisrogers3457]

Classic

[@truckingjoeforever7368]

That show was different from any sci-fi show. Have you seen any show with giant people similar to our earth. They ought to do a remake of it.

[@hydrolito]

They must have altered hand to change from male hand to female hand.

I've never wanted to be a pencil eraser more than at 6:08. 😊

Funny how cowardly Fitzhue tried to pass himself off as a US Navy officer 😂

[@tripjet999]

"from Los Angeles to Lonyun" What?

[@oo0Spyder0oo]

I just imagined they had been through a vortex that had made them smaller and had simply crashed back on earth. It made all the English speaking giants and all their cars and similar earth like lifestyle more sensible.

[@paulsoxl7739]

During the original run when I was a kid, I thought they were on Mars. That’s the only thing that made sense to me 🤷‍♂️.

[@cottonlung]

I think the giants were more than 12 times larger😂

[@Howyaduing]

They need to remake this series on Netflix?

Betty was much hotter than Valerie, I have always though.

[@jamesw1659]

Ginger vs. Mary Ann…

[@chopincam-robertpark6857]

Don Marshall stole the show

[@mlongpre100]

he always looked like he resented taking orders from whitey !

[@JohnAnderson-jy2js]

Somebody must have held a gun to his head and make him hire somebody black Lord knows he was against hiring black actors for his other shows

[@randyacuna5643]

This show could not decided which direction to go , the giants acted strange in the beginning, it became very kiddie fast. The Allan formula got old very quickly. Only voyage in the first season took a very serious approach but was still fun later on .lost got silly when focusing on the smith character which started halfway in the first season. Saw a few of tunnel and this show and both had a simple child formula. Voyage was fun , this show was a struggle to enjoy.
