I expected this series to get great IMDB review ratings, but was shocked to see so many reviews giving it between 1 to 2 stars. We must not be watching the same series. The Lost in Space I'm watching is well written, with excellent casting for each of the roles, the acting is very good, the special effects are top notch, and the episodes are suspenseful. It must be costing Netflix a small fortune to produce this reboot of a campy classic show from the 60s.

Yes, portions of the storyline are hard to believe such as the type of fuel used by the Jupiters; however, overall, my wife and I have enjoyed each episode looking forward to the next one. My wife has never been a sci-fi fan, but is just as interested in the show as I am. Maybe, you have to be at least partially of a "techy geek" to enjoy it. I do work in the IT industry and everyone of my IT colleagues that have watched at least one episode have given it a thumbs up.

Looking forward to the 2nd season, but it's probably not going to come to fruition if the series doesn't get better reviews than what I'm seeing on IMDB.
