Family travel is never easy, but family time travel is the worst.

It was only to last six seconds. But now, each jump is taking the Robinson family further back in time, their resources even more limited as they travel. The four Robinson brothers, Fred, the Astrophysicist, Ernie, the martyr, Jack, the jokester, and Will, the peacekeeper, need to lead their wives and children back from Northern Nevada's gambling and mining past, if they can learn how to set aside their deep seated issues with each other.

Whatever their family problems are, time is running short, as a rouge member of the Observation Council isn't adhering to the 'observation' part of the council. And if he figures out how to steal the Robinsons' time technology before they can get home, the Robinsons will find themselves lost in the past forever.
