Summary[]
The Jupiter 2 is held on a junkyard planet by a robot eager for spare parts.
Background information[]
- Marcel Hillaire returns after previously playing Phanzig in "Condemned of Space".
- Bob May liked that the Robot could not destroy himself because of the love he felt for Will.
- The alien robot that is is "demolecularized" by the Junkman was the same robot body used in Hunter's Moon and The Great Vegetable Rebellion.
- June Lockhart is only briefly seen in this episode when announcing the food lockers have been contaminated with a rust blight. Angela Cartwright and Marta Kristen don't appear until well into the first act (about 13 minutes into the episode, sans commercials).
- When the Jupiter II lands the second time on the planet, it lands with the lower landing gear extended and they exit with the ladder.
- Guy Williams returns for the final episode of the series after being banished for two shows by Irwin Allen for laughing during "The Great Vegetable Rebellion"
