I am not saying it is wrong to enjoy the show or it was badly made, I am just saying that it could be silly.

I enjoy both it and lost in space but you have to admit when your show's premise is that the moon went flying out of orbit and now acts like a spaceship that never runs out of shuttles you are going to have a hard time getting scripts that are not silly.

I am not saying he is completely blameless but in both cases there were other things going wrong with the shows and he had to cope with reduced budgets, so I don't think he is some show wrecking monster who was a complete idiot and hated sci-fi as he is often painted.

I think he was most likely someone who was given a huge job and just wasn't up to the challenge. Sad but I don't think it makes him a bad person or a hack.

At least his bad stuff was the fun and campy kind of bad instead of the boring and depressing kind of bad.
