Did You Know?

  • Land of the Lost ran on Saturday mornings on NBC from September 1974 to December 1976.
  • Wesley Eure (Will Marshall) often performed songs at the end of several episodes with lyrics pertaining to the lesson learned in the course of the episode.
  • Kathy Coleman – she of the braids, straight bangs, and red and white top – was born in 1962. She married, then divorced, and had two sons along the way. Her sons are Christopher Michael Bell (born 1981) and Alphonzo Robert Bell III (born 1983). The latter is a rap artist who goes by the stage name “40 Keys.”
  • Kathy Coleman is the youngest of 10 children and still gets recognized from her iconic role on The Land of the Lost.
  • Philip Paley (Cha-Ka) is an accomplished martial artist with a black belt. Oddly enough, I always thought it was Clint Howard under that costuem. Even today, when I see pictures, I’d swear it was Clint Howard… even when I know better.
  • Philip Paley has a BA in English from the University of California.
  • As a gimmick, Wesley Eure had himself billed as simply “Wesley” in the “Land of the Lost” (1974) credits. Reportedly, he regrets the ploy to this day.
  • Wesley Eure was the original Mike Horton (1974-1981) on “Days of Our Lives”.
  • Former Cleveland Cavs and Detroit Pistons center Bill Laimbeer was a Sleestak during the show’s first season!
