- Quotes
Dr. Zachary Smith: Exciting news of a romantic nature always attracts listeners. My dear friends, you see before you the happiest man in the world: Sybila has promised to be my wife.

Dr. Zachary Smith: I shall treat that slur with the contempt it deserves.

Featured review
Another Peter Packer Space Western
Mercedes McCambridge and her fellow hillbillies drop in on the lost planet.
Right down to the country musical score, this is a western in space. The writer - Peter Packer - had a history of scripting TV westerns so he brought this genre into a few episodes of LIS.
Will comments that the alien space craft is "all open up" and is told "we close it up in space". In later episodes such explanations to the opened up space crafts were never given, such as in season two's West Of Mars.
Space Croppers in a fine episode of LIS thanks mostly to the acting talents of Mercedes McCambridge. In 1962, four years before this, she appeared in a Bonanza episode titled "The Lady from Baltimore" where she was once again a tough cookie and once again had a cute daughter up to no good. This Bonanza hour should be seen by all fans of The Space Croppers.
