I'm sorry but it seems taste and expectations have been crushed beneath a hailstorm of bad shows, dumb movies and CGI galore in recent years.

Why this show is so highly rated is just baffling.

While the premise is good enough, this show falls apart at any moment. Family problems that really should take a backseat here, considering the problems they constantly have to solve to survive, are constantly brought into the spotlight to disrupt the story, dumb decisions break all immersion and a really really annoying Dr. Smith destroys the rest of un you will have with this...peice of television. Dr. Smith is so erratic and disruptive she doesn't even make a good villain. She is just a totally unbelievable character that just annoys and is used by the "writers" of this "show" to create even more problems, despite the fact that she puts her own survival in danger just to be mean or obnoxious. As I said, this is not a believable character and is just used by the writers as a channel to get more problems into the show for the "family" to solve.

Why this bad show deserves another season is beyond me. The only explanation I can come up with is that next to garbage like Another Life and Nightflyers this somehow gets a pass because it is not as dumb as these shows.
