Off the top of your head, describe a “Lost in Space” episode [except the pilot]

1. Will finds a transporter machine that sends him to Earth. He brings back Carbon-Tetrachloride.
2. Penny is entered in some kind of beauty contest (I think) and has to repeat over and over again “The beets in Beta boil better on the burner.” That goes through my head every time I cook beets.
3. Yes, I do hate this. HAL catches Will boffing Penny, and in a fit of jealous rage casts Will into outer space and death, tragically just before Penny can apply the robot screwdriver lobotomization treatment.
4. The final episode where the all return safely, except it is revealed that Penny and Mrs. Robertson are both pregnant with Dr. Scott’s babies.
5. Will and Penny stumble on four friendly aliens (two are blue and two are green) who, it turns out, are a rock and roll (bubblegum) group. The planet was supposed to be their concert venue, but something went wrong and the Robinsons have to fix it.
6. Will’s dad meets his evil anti-matter double. This is the first time I ever heard of anti-matter, and was surprised to learn later that it’s actually a thing.
7. The Robot wanders into a strange area, falls over on his back and grows to gargantuan proportions. When Will and Dr. “Scott” find him, he bellows, “TO HELL WITH THIS, Will Robinson, those Thread Game Dopers can finish this thread any way they bloody well like; they’re lucky this wasn’t ‘Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea.’ I’m outta here!” And he makes his way back to Earth and is just big enough to fit in the rubber Godzilla suit for the Roland Emmerich film.
8. The pilot yearns for the day when he will be played by Joey Tribbiani.
