Lost in Space

I don't know why there is so much hate being piled onto this show. It's not brilliant, but it's not bad either. I'm three episodes in and I'm enjoying it.

Sure, the scifi elements and in particular the coherency isn't there, but most scifi shows fail there. And yes, it's neither the most profound story nor the deepest of characters.

But it's fun and paces nicely (certainly better than the knuckle-dragging Altered Carbon). The characters are pretty cool, while the effects and design are really nicely done. Lost in Space won't change your life or become the next great television event. But ignore the reviewers - take a look for yourself.

The effects and sets on this show are really good, what makes it irritating at times is that the problems never stop, not for more than 3 minutes, forget about survival the Robinsons would be simply out of energy. Also enough with Dr Smith, someone just shoot her.

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 seriously can't understand these 1 or 2 star reviews. I'm half way through the first season and loving it. It has a great balance of good acting, reasonable story, amazing visuals as well as thrills. I read one review that said he binged the whole season in one day but only gave it 2 stars?? If it's good enough to not stop watching it, it deserve more than that?? The original was 60s fluff. You can only take the premise and bones of the show in the modern age and run with it which is why is a great property to work with. The family work well together and you really want to know more about them. Doctor Smith is fantastic. Beautifully manipulative and one that you hate intensely one minute and then feel sorry for the next. Dark shades of grey make the best baddies. Don is fun and will develop I'm sure as will the story and I can't wait to find out how everything connects. We lose so many great shows before they can hit their strides because of binary reviews and ratings it really frustrates me. There is nothing except a few story driven, science bending, mistakes. So what. If I need a tv show to teach me science I'm in the wrong place. I want to be entertained and I am.

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.
