Perdidos en el espacio

Did you ever see a seemingly good show and then start asking yourself "Wait, why don't they just..." or "What? Why did they do that"? Well if not- search no further! this show will give you the chance to ask these questions dozens and dozens of times!

A good looking production and an interesting subject do start this show on a great path, but when characters start making the silliest mistakes that could *easily* be avoided- over and over and over again, or keep ignoring the most significant issues which can be resolved in seconds- this show starts to really annoy the viewer and his intelligence.

These glaring and repetitive script issues really mar what could had been a great show, but present as they are, they make it hard to suspend the disbelief and enjoy the show rather then being annoyed by it.

An entirely adequate show that's come and gone without much remark or passion from either side of the camera, or the screen.

There's little to object to here, but nothing to enthuse about either. It's an absolutely straight (mostly) family friendly production of space adventure and survival.

Most episodes follow exactly the same pattern: a survival challenge which is overcome through spunky Spacemerican ingenuity, or (verging on literal) Deus ex machina, as the theme tune swells triumphantly. And everybody learns a lesson about the importance of family, again.

The characters are consistently written and all the cast do a decent enough job. Sets, cinematography, CGI, score, it's all competent.

None of it is brilliant though. There are essentially no memorable lines, nobody's character really develops, and as the seasons progress, it becomes clear that they've run out of ideas beyond "Bad robots".

The final season in particular feels both stretched and truncated, as they struggle to fill 8 episodes with a meagre plot, then end it all abruptly with an unsatisfying cop-out conclusion.

I made it all the way through, but was left wondering why I'd bothered.

Enough is enough! Mood making. Constant Star Wars music, interferes w the talking and distracts.it should be rereleased with 25% of the music, which often makes it hard to hear what's being said.

I've written individual reviews for all 28 episodes of "Lost in Space" but though it would be nice to put something on the show page as well, as you're more likely to look here when it comes to deciding whether to start the show or not.

The first season isn't great. With great leaps in logic required to keep the writing going. The second season of Netflix reboot of "Lost In Space" was vastly superior to its uneven first run in every respect. Funnier, more logical, better looking. On the whole, I think the third run was really positive - though I did end up wishing that the resolution required something cleverer than what was provided.

In this version, the Robinson family consist of patriarch John Robinson (Toby Stephens), who appears to have been in the special ops of the Army, prior to his family's enrolment in the pioneering space colonisation programme. His wife Maureen (Molly Parker ) is a scientist involved in spaceflight programme and their three kids Will (Maxwell Jenkins) and older sisters Judy (Taylor Russell) and Penny (Mina Sundwall). This first episode focuses mostly on the family, as they crash land on an icy planet following the destruction of their mothership.

There were some visuals across the run that really looked phenomenal. The robot army careering down the corridors and especially when they are ensnared in the magnetic trap during season two are a particular highlight. Visually, this series has to be one of the best TV shows we've had so far.

I think this is indeed probably the right place to end the series. It's first season was, as I say, poor, which started the show of on the wrong footing and probably shook off a lot of the potential audience, which is a shame, because it's certainly rallied since then - only for covid to hammer out another year of production and leading to the decision to end now. I'm generally satisfied with the episode, the season and the series overall.

Growing up watching the original series, I was surprised to see a reboot on Netflix, I find dr. Smith's character convincingly repulsive. She manifests all the characteristics of someone who has an an addictive personality and is asocial. Will is a suprisingly good young actor. I am not disappointed and hope for a second season. It is something that brings me back to my youth; completing my homework so I could watch Lost in Space on a 10" today tv.. Rubricator
