I enjoyed the first episode and I knew die hard fans of the original series would tear this apart but I think new eyes will enjoy this remake. Let's be fair, we've grown up and it's hard to let go of our favourites, just like adapting to a new Star Trek captain with its remake, you need to let the past go and see it for what it is. If I was a kid again I think this would be awesome, a big budget on effects, much less laughable than what we were used to. I like that it wasn't trying too hard to be a clone of the original series, it's changed a lot of the plot and even where the robot hails from. Of course I would have loved to see the original one, I adored that machine but times have moved on. I was thoroughly entertained by this show and I hope it keeps the pace up for the rest of the episodes. Acting is superb by all.
