Just wanted to know of anyone that cited Irwin Allen as an influence in their entertainment works.
For instance, in one of the latter Time Tunnel episodes, one character warns Tony and Doug at one point that "resistance...is...impossible". As any Star Trek: The Next Generation fan knows, the Borg's warning is "resistance is futile". I couldn't believe it when I heard that coming out of the guy's mouth.
Also, upon watching the intro to Land of the Giants, I couldn't help but notice that one of the ladies on there (the blonde) looked like Kes on Voyager was modeled after her decades later.
SURELY the first one isn't a coincidence! The latter is just hair, pretty much, but the first one...I doubt it
Anyone know of these or any others?
