Caring And Sharing
28 January 2024
Lost In Space was about sharing and caring. And this episode perfectly illustrates that. With water in short supply the castaways have to care about each other and share the water or people will die. It's a life and death situation.

Dr. Smith always has an endless supply of sympathy for himself, but he never has any for anybody else. I think there's a word for that. Oh yeah - I just thought of it - selfish. Dr. Smith is nothing if not selfish. He's what you don't want your kids to be when they grow up.

Selfishness in a life and death situation is extremely dangerous. It's a murderous weapon when dabbled in too deeply. It's much better to share. It's much better to care. Everyone in this episode practices sharing and caring except Dr. Smith and it endangers all of their lives.

This episode teaches us (and the kids who watched it back in those days) the importance of sharing and caring. It is also very entertaining.
