Fans who grew up watching Saturday morning television in the 1970s have a special reason to celebrate.
Land of the Lost stars Wesley Eure and Kathy Coleman are joining a plethora of vintage television and film stars for Duke City Retro Con, a fan event in Albuquerque, New Mexico, bringing together beloved entertainers from decades past. The convention gives fans a chance to meet their favorite stars, hear behind-the-scenes stories, and celebrate the television shows and movies that helped define an era.
The duo joins celebrities such as Priscilla Presley, Tiffany, Mimi Rogers, and Barry Bostwick, among others, to celebrate their past accomplishments and let fans in on some of their favorite memories from their careers. Attendees will also have the opportunity to hear behind-the-scenes stories and meet the stars who helped shape 70s pop culture.
Eure and Coleman, along with Spencer Milligan, starred in the cult classic NBCSid & Marty Krofft series. It ran from 1974 through 1976.

Eure shared a promotional post for the event on his official Instagram page. He wrote, “Kathy and I will be in Albuquerque this weekend at Duke City Retro Con, Friday, Saturday, and Sunday, June 19-21. Please join us for a ride in our yellow raft.”
Following this, Eure shared a video where he and Coleman spoke about the event. “See you this weekend,” he said, encouraging fans to attend.
Land of the Lost told the story of the Marshall family, who became trapped in a mysterious world filled with dinosaurs, strange creatures, and danger. The adventure series quickly became a Saturday morning favorite.
Eure starred as Will Marshall, while Coleman played his younger sister, Holly. Milligan played the duo’s father, Rick.
Land of the Lost was hugely popular, drawing viewers in each week with its exciting adventures. Decades later, the show still holds a special place in the hearts of fans who grew up watching the Marshall family navigate a strange and dangerous world.
Years after the series cemented its place in pop culture, Wesley Eure co-created and developed the beloved PBS children’s series, Dragon Tales. The show became a favorite among young viewers and proved that Eure had a knack for creating stories that resonated with kids across generations.
According to Remind Magazine, Spencer Milligan died in 2024 at 86. Ron Harper, who played Uncle Jack Marshall, also died that same year. Philip Paley, who portrayed Cha-Ka, maintains a social media presence and recently posted a tribute to the late Sid Krofft in April of this year.
