my next character was dr ann mc gregger. knew everything about the project.( her dad designed the tt) and most of the time they ignored her except when things went oops and the heads were flummoxed.

Time Tunnel, Giants and "Voyage to the Bottom of the Sea" are supposed to be rebooted (maybe).

I think...I enjoyed it but Dr. Smith is now a woman and the robot was way different (not so cutesy)...I forget what streaming channel it is on but it's out there if interested....
