Season three of Lost in Space finds the Space Family Robinson and company escaping from the planet they had been marooned on throughout season two. Their vessel, "Jupiter II," is now able to hop from planet to planet, galaxy to galaxy, with the addition of a hitherto unseen space pod in which the travelers are able to shuttle back and forth. Alas, they are no closer to returning to their own world than they had been in previous seasons. The closest the travelers come to Mother Earth is in the episode "A Visit to a Hostile Planet," in which the Jupiter II passes through a time warp and emerges in 1947, where it is promptly assumed to be an alien UFO! By now, the series' nominal stars -- Guy Williams as Professor John Robinson, June Lockhart as Maureen Robinson, Mark Goddard as pilot Don West -- had been all but relegated to the background by permanent "special guest star" Jonathan Harris in the role of shifty, cowardly space stowaway Dr. Zachary Smith. Most of the episodes deal with the interplay between Dr. Smith and young Will Robinson (Bill Mumy), who innocently refuses to see any bad in the old reprobate, and between Smith and the Jupiter II's talking robot, who trades one-liners and insults like an intergallactic vaudeville team. With all this going on, the two other female cast members, Marta Kristen and Angela Cartwright as Judy and Penny Robinson, barely get any screen time at all. As was the case in season two, the third and final season of Lost in Space boasts an impressive array of guest stars, all of whom enter into the spirit of things with ripe, Armour Star Ham performances. Worth noting this season are future Hill Street Blues stars Daniel J. Travanti as the punkish leader of an outer-space motorcyle gang in "Collision of the Planets"; and best of all, Stanley Adams as a disgruntled giant carrot in the unforgettable episode "The Great Vegetable Rebellion."
