Beyond bad I gave up after 5 minutes, tried again and regretted the loss of another 5

Is this lost in space the 70 's series loved it then and now too

As 90% of remakes, it sucks!

Yeah, visually it’s fantastic, but the plot is so slow and devoid of interesting elements it’s driving me nuts!

Thanks for saving me the time. Still catching up on Supernatural.

Lol, I watched about 20 minutes of episode 1. I might watch the rest of it, but don't hold your breath. ?

I’m only familiar with the original, loved that show, but in all fairness I was like 9

Gave up after the first episode. It's as incompetently written as Star Trek Discovery.

Can somebody please explain to me how it can be raining on a planet where it is supposedly so cold that approximately 24 ounces of water freezes solid in mere seconds? Or how people who are walking around on said planet can be dressed like its a somewhat chipper early fall morning without freezing to death in less than an hour?

That's about as incompetent as klingons with warp drive technology who apparently don't know what a light bulb is or sound waves which somehow travel in space. I'm talking to you, STD writers.

For anybody who is looking for competently written scjence fiction, I recommend The Expanse on SyFy. If you can make it through the first four episodes, which are a bit slow and dry as characters and situations are introduced, you'll be rewarded with a riveting space opera.

i watched a few episodes recently. Could not feel any enthusiam for the show at all. Am now watching Eureka on Amazon Prime. Very funny , with lots of plausible disasters on the SF kind.

One show I give a big A+, if you have a strong stomach and nerves of steel, and don't mind a LOT of casual profanity, sex and full body nudity, is the British TV sci-fi comedy-drama series on Netflix, Misfits.

The acting is TOP notch, beyond good. Way beyond.
The writing is sharp, innovative, and the plots so outrageously over the top I quiver in pure joy over titles of episodes..like, "the attack of the white rabbit," and "zombie cheerleaders," etc.

It's about five juvenile offenders sentenced to work in a community service program, where they obtain supernatural powers after a strange electrical storm. The storm gives many random people besides the kids sudden strange powers, which gives puts them into bizarre situations.

Not only do they get these superhuman powers, but there is a guy who has the power to take powers from people, which he does for money, and exchange them for other, or better powers. The kids keep finishing their sentences at the community service center, but more young people with weird powers are sentenced to work there also.

Everyone is so casual and off-hand about horrific events; dark humor .."I'm sorry-we had to kill another probation officer." "Right. I'll get the shovel."

What did you expect? The producer makes TV series for inbred hillbilly conspiracy nuts about such fresh and new topics as ancient aliens, is Hitler alive, Oak Island, and so on.

The thing is, said producer has failed a couple of times before to try to get Lost in Space back as a franchise. The 1997 theatrical movie and the Warner Brothers version ("The Robinsons" ) were embarrassingly bad. He also did a music video, trying to sexualize the show. It was crap too.

And yet fans of the real Lost in Space feel they have something to gain by kissing his ass, so they overlook all the flaws and praise that crap to high heaven. Try to tell the truth to them, and they foam at the mouth.

Sycophants: gotta love 'em!

I tried several times to watch it, shuddered in horror, then tried again, thinking it couldn't have been THAT bad..after all, the premise showed promise, but even after several gos at it, I gave up, as my gag reflex was too strong.
I still think it's a great idea-just needs better writing, casting, etc. Or at least a rewrite.
The CGI is good quality.
I really wanted the show to be good.

Hollywood movie industry,is so lazy.they won't read any books,just remake old shows,and movies over and over.

Sooo, not a big rave?
