James Brolin & Linda Harrison appear as newlyweds headed for outer space. Later on, both would be part of the make-up tests in order to pitch the concept of the Planet of the Apes film to 20th Century Fox. Linda will co-star in that movie as Nova.

Connie Stevens & Jerry Lewis would co-star as a romantic couple in the 1958 film Rock-a-Bye Baby.

I am not really a Jerry Lewis fan, but his two comedy sci-fi movies — Visit to a Small Planet and Way, Way Out — actually manage to have some funny moments.

Part of their appeal is the fine support casts.

And the "countdown" used in the silly opening titles sequence was slightly altered and re-used for the 3rd season opening titles of Lost In Space (CBS 1968 - 1968)!

It might've been inspired by it, but it was hardly re-use. And parts of the film's animated titles somewhat resemble Lost In Space's first two seasons' titles.
