"The only person who had any control was Jonathan Harris. His character was so flamboyant that he was able to make things happen. My character was fairly one-dimensional, so I had my relationship with Dr. Smith and with the family"

Mark Goddard's quote speaks with the power characteristics between his character and Jonathan Harris' character in the show Lost in Space. Goddard's character, Major Don West, was relatively one-dimensional and had restricted control over the occasions of the show. On the other hand, Harris' character, Dr. Zachary Smith, was flamboyant and had the power to make things take place. Goddard's character had relationships with both Dr. Smith and the household, however it was Harris' character that had the control. This quote speaks to the power dynamics between the two characters and how Harris' character was able to make things take place while Goddard's character was restricted in his control. It likewise speaks with the value of having a flamboyant character in order to have control over the events of the program.
