It's interesting how many people give it a review of 2 and 1. Mind boggling really. Many of these people have watched only one episode or the origional show and were expecting the same thing. Well, I didn't watch the show, and came in with the excpectation to see a 7 star show. But it was not 7 star. It was more like an 8 - 8.5 star show. I gave it 10 to counter the really unnecessarily bad reviews. The fact that even "Arrow" and "The Flash" scored higher than this show, indicates that something is off here. And based on the reviews we can see what.

The show definetly isn't perfect. But it is GOOD. Yes, the first episode throws them into danger right away, before making us care for the characters, and this was a mistake. BUT, as the episodes progress we start to reallly care for the characters. And the story feels mostly logical, some things are left unexplained and don't connect too well, but it doesn't need to. A story is not a computer program, it does not have to have clear connections between things, or else it couldn't do things it wanted, sometimes we need to let a story not be the most logical, so it can serve itself. We do not want simulations, they are boring. We want thought expirements, and this is what we got here. And don't get the impression that the show's logic is really flawed. The main (no spoiler - trust me) "logical flaw" is that the family gets into trouble all the time due to the planet, and it has to doesn't it? or else what would we be watching?

Overall, the acting is good, the effects are good, and the story is good. It makes you connect to the characters, isn't afraid to explore some philosophy, contains some pretty accurate science, and leaves a taste for more.
