This is one of my favorite episodes. Many people criticize the show for having focused too much on Dr Smith and Will Robinson. I rarely agree with what most people think. The friendship between Dr Smith and Will was strong, and this episode gives a great example of that strength. When Smith becomes "possessed" by the Draconian wizards, he is lost to all of the Robinson party except Will. Only Will cared enough to risk everything in an attempt to save Smith. Will succeeds, as only he was capable of getting Smith to return to his true identity. Some touching moments here, as well as some highly comedic ones. While under the Draconian spell, Smith claims to "know nothing of the 'good times' as Will called them." Apparently, Smith did remember those good times, as his recollection brought him back to his true self. Oh, let's not forget Golden Boy!
