Review Summaries
"While heading for a new world to help Earth colonise the galaxy, the Robinson family are accidentally hurled through space and confronted with insectoid aliens, time paradox and their saboteur Dr Smith. Mostly standard special effects adventure, but an interesting time travel plot surfaces now and then."
Artemis, Resident Scholar
