... Pioneers of Television

8/7c PBS

It's hard to believe, but Irwin Allen's silly Lost in Space did better in the ratings than Gene Roddenberry's Star Trek. This Season 2 premiere of the nostalgia-fest focuses on sci-fi pioneers, including those two series and what is arguably the genre's all-time best: Rod Serling's Twilight Zone. Along the way, viewers learn a bounty of trivia, including this "fascinating" fact: Martin Landau was offered the part of Spock before Leonard Nimoy.
