3. I want someone to redo "Lost in Space" ala the way they reimagined Galactica.
And I just might start something like that myself if I keep hearing nothing about it.

4. John Woo helmed a pilot for the WB back in 2003
Edited on Thu May-22-08 10:52 AM by Cheap_Trick
it didn't make it any further. I downloaded it from a file sharing place. It wasn't even finished, some effects were left undone and temp music in place of final score.

Second TV series
In late 2003, a new TV series, with a somewhat changed format, was in development in the U.S. It was intended to be originally closer to the original pilot with no Dr. Smith, but included a robot. The pilot (entitled, The Robinsons: Lost in Space) was commissioned by the The WB Television Network. It was directed by John Woo and produced by Synthesis Entertainment, Irwin Allen Productions, Twentieth Century Fox Television and Regency Television.

The "Jupiter 2" inter-stellar flying-saucer spacecraft of the original series was changed to a non-saucer planet-landing craft, dispensed from a larger inter-stellar mother-ship.

The pilot script featured the characters of John and Maureen, but an elder son, David, was added, as well as Judy, an 'infant' Penny, and ten-year-old Will. There was no Dr. Smith character, but the character of Don West was described as a "dangerous, lone wolf type".

The confirmed cast included Brad Johnson as John Robinson, Jayne Brook as Maureen Robinson, Adrianne Palicki as Judy Robinson, Ryan Malgarini as Will Robinson and Mike Erwin as Don West.

It was not among the network's series pick-ups confirmed later that year.

However, the producers of the new Battlestar Galactica show bought the sets. They were redesigned the next year and used for scenes on the Battlestar Pegasus.
