The Starlost 101 - Voyage of Discovery

Circa 1973, I used to love this show as a kid. This is one of the first Canadian Science Fiction shows ever produced here in the great white North. The concept was sound and the stories were excellent, but the execution left much to be desired. If only CTV and could have furnished a decent budget there is no doubt in my mind that The Star Lost would have stayed on the air for many many years. I believe they should revisit this idea and give it one more kick at the can. The voyage of the Star Lost should definitely continue. A far better concept than  Ascension the new Canadian science fiction drama that I gotta be honest, aint doing a whole lot for me.





Below is the original model that was actually used during the filming of the show. An iconic piece of Canadian Sci Fi history sitting in some old warehouse suffering from neglect....such a shame...What I wouldn't do to own it...
