Will Robinson breaks out into tears three times in the first episode. He looks like Macauley Culkin. Where Bill Mumy was a Spock-like kid who never flinched, the current version is a regular diva. He even hugs the robot whenever there is danger.

The robot says the classic "Danger Will Robinson" a few times, but apparently that is as far as his English goes. Kind of lame. The robot is from an alien space ship that was attacking the Earth's main space station. He may or may not recognize the criminal pretending to be Dr. Smith.

Bill Mumy is Dr. Smith in the first episode, until his jacket and passcode is robbed by June Harris who is pretending to be Dr. Smith. Harris is a criminal grifter and a killer, so naturally the Robinson Family trust her with everything, and give her free use of anything she wants.

The kids are pretty generic and annoying. Where the original series focused on the weekly alien adventures, this version gives you the family drama soap opera, which is insanely boring.

The Mother is played by Molly Parker, and she has zero of the charisma of June Lockhart. Parker is overbearing, bossy, and rude. Nothing like the original Mrs. Robinson. The Father is played by Toby Stephens, and he has even less going for him than Molly Parker. Just think 2nd rate generic thug from any movie by Keanu Reeves, Liam Neesom, Jason Strathorn. I keep expecting him to beat up his wife every time she talks down to him.

The pace is insanely slow thanks to the focus being on family dynamics and drama.
