September 29, 1963 to September 4, 1966 for 107 episodes. The show starred
Ray Walston as Uncle Martin (the Martian) and Bill Bixby as Tim O'Hara.
The series was also remade as a feature film in 1999 starring Christopher Lloyd
as Martin and Jeff Daniels as Tim. Ray Walston was featured in the film and
played a Martian who had been trapped on Earth since the time of the first
series and wore a similar space suit from the series. However, the premise
was changed: Martians are four-armed, four-legged, three-eyed, creatures
who use a "gumball" (which they call "nerplex") to assume human form.
The "nerplex" comes in a selection that will turn the person ingesting it into
assorted life forms, including Martian and one to "never use" (Venox 7).
+ Watched the remake just the other day with My Favorite Mar'tian [kmarz]
