Trivia:
During the final season, the Marshalls and Chaka moved from their cave to a Sleestak temple. A popular myth for the reason of this set-change is tied into the fire that destroyed the cave sets for another Krofft show Sigmund and the Sea Monsters. However, this fire took place during the second season of Sigmund, at which time Land of the Lost would have been in production of only its first season. The first two seasons of Land of the Lost were taped at a different studio (General Service Studios in Hollywood) entirely from that of Sigmund. The show then moved to Goldwyn Studios for its third season. This was the studio where the fire did occur two years prior that destroyed the Sigmund sets.

Quotes:
Will Marshall:
It's funny - I've walked this way hundreds of times and I've never seen this pylon.
Enik: Nor I, Will Marshall. And I have been in this valley many times longer than you.
Cha-Ka: Cha-Ka think it's *new* pylon!
Will Marshall: Either that, Cha-Ka, or it's been invisible all this time.
Enik: That is not logical.
Will Marshall: Now, Enik, if you've been in the Land of the Lost that much longer than we have, you ought to know by now that not everything here is logical.
Enik: That is logical.

Often dismissed as little more than a cheesy children's show, Land Of The Lost was actually an outstanding science fiction program. Early seasons saw noted writers of the genre such as David Gerrold, Larry Niven, Theodore Sturgeon, Dick Morgan, D.C. Fontana and Ben Bova writing episodes. Sadly, none of these writers were present for the third season which saw a drop in the quality of the writing and the show turned into a visitor-of-the-week dreck-fest.
If you haven't seen this show since you were a kid, I highly recommend volumes three and four of the videos which feature some of the fan favourites. (The episode selection on volumes one and two -- the same episodes which are on the DVD -- isn't the greatest)
