Having just read all the comments I had an idea of why this show made such a strong impression on so many.
It seems many of the people that were fans were kids when this first aired (I was six, probably became truly imprinted on my neural circuits in early syndication). I believe this show connected so much with its audience because as young children we all felt in some way that we were living in a Land of the Giants and so we identified very much with all the characters.
Anyway, sorry for the cheesy pop psychiatry, but that's my theory and I'm sticking with it.
Now if I can only figure out why I loved so many other 60's/70's TV sci-fi (Star Trek, Lost In Space, UFO, Space 1999, etc)
