Does anyone remember this show? All I can really remember is it was about this family, either on another planet or far in the future, and they haf this sort of winnebago like vehicle they lived in. Also one of the guys would occasionally fly around in this cheesy jet pack thing. It wasn’t an effect they really had one of those jet packs like you sometimes see at the superbowl in the seventies and such. Does this ring any bells for anyone?
Season 1 of Lost in Space. Click here and look at picture number 3 to see the family in that vehicle.
thanks. But, that’s not it. This was one of those saturday morning tv shows. maybe from the kroft brothers? I can only remember them being on sort of a desert planet. And the “winnebago” was really big more like an 18-wheeler and they actually lived in it. Plus their was the jet pack, I thought it was the coolest when I was a little kid.
You may be thinking of the “lost” pilot episode of Lost in Space. I’ve seen this at science fiction conventions but I have no idea whether you can get it on tape.
Just reread the OP, if you saw it on TV then that’s probably not it. Sorry. :o
not lost in space, I remeber the show, but cant remember much about it. IIRC it was some kinda post holocost thingy.
thanks everybody, but I am sure it was not at all related to lost in space. I am familiar with lost in space.
This is almost surely what you’re remembering. It might have rang more bells if you’d remembered the chimp.
Ark II had a whole 15 episodes, and premiered in 1976. Check out this site (in the photo, one actor is even wearing the jetpack):

Ark II
After watching that series, I wanted a jet pack so badly that I would have eaten my own thumb to get it.
