I realize this was a 60's show, but I'm trying to remember an old old episode. I'm sure it was in B&W, and there is a pseudo Earth. I seem to think it takes place at Christmas, but that may have just been cheap sets with big Christmas Lights. I know about the Christmas Ep where Will goes to Vermont, but that isn't it.

Could it be this show?

No, but that was a good one too. The one I'm thinking of, had a real Rod Serling/Twilite Zone feel to it. I found all the episodes on Hulu, but couldn't seem to find this one.

The only other show I know of your that is similar to your description, but in color, is when they land on the real Earth in 1947

Season 3, Episode 2: Visit to a Hostile Planet

Original Air Date—13 September 1967

"Caught in a “time warp,” the Jupiter 2 crew discover not only that they can now return to Earth, but it’s suddenly 1947!"

Thanks for your help claybricks, but I don't think that is the one either. Could be my very old memory is either imagined, or distorted. I only remember am empty, dark warehouse type environment, and Will looking out a window to see home, covered in snow. But they of course, weren't on Earth. And like I said, I think it was black and white, which would be first season. All in all, it was a great series for a kid at the time, and some of the stories were really good.

HAVE YOU CHECKED THE VEOH PLAYER, WEBSITE??  IT HAS ALL THE EPISODES TO BE VIEWED FOR FREE.  YOU CAN WATCH ALL OF THE,  LOST IN SPACE EPISODES.  VINTAGE CARTOONS/ FREE ANIMATION VIDEOS/  VEOH.  IT IS INTERESTING.  TAKE A LOOK.

Are you sure the episode was from 'Lost in Space'? I seem to recall similar episodes from 'Time Tunnel' and 'Land of the Giants'. Maybe you could be recalling one of those shows instead.

Well... I'm almost pretty sure it was Billy Mumy... :)

You completely left out his long running role on Babylon 5... ;)

As well as his role in Dear Bridget ;)

I'm almost positive the episode you're referring to is "The Toymaker" from 1967.

I sort of thought so, but it didn't sound right. Off to Hulu I go!

Bada bing! that was it, only not quite as I remembered it. Thanks Gary!
