LotG was a one season show, but a lot of good shows last one season, like UFO, nightmare cafe, malcolm mcdowell's fantast island reboot, etc. Then again some series lasted one season too long.

Can't say I was very fond of LotG but the cast wasn't the problem.

DEANNA LUND ... LAND OF THE GIANTS... if one were sad to hear about such death, then one might actually take the time not to create an inscrutable acronym but actually type the name out.

I could've sworn Land of the Giants ran for two years.

It did. From 1968-1970. Another of Irwin Allen's TV programs. It wasn't something I watched on a regular basis, but I do remember watching a couple of episodes or so. If I had been older at the time, I might have watched it more frequently, as it had some great guest stars from other TV shows on the show.

Yes, do you?  Apparently "LotG" is an "acronym". 
You want to honor somebody?  TYPE THE PERSON'S NAME OUT instead of just posting a link and an inscrutable acronym.
