I guess I should have guessed from the title but this is more of a remake of 'Lost' than it is 'Lost in Space'. The more characters that the show adds, the clumsier it becomes after a spectacular introduction - just like 'Lost'. The planet looks great but the dialogue is laughably awful. Dr Smith's antics are almost unwatchable in terms of there being no motive with which viewers can sympathise with her perspective. Maureen Robinson does the best one can with a script lacking in originality and verbose exposition. John and Judy Robinson aren't terrible - the remainder of the cast come across as though they are rehearsing. If it does get picked up for a second season, stop trying to be 'Lost' and look to the original in terms of ideas: a family viewers care about endeavouring to do the best they can in an alien environment - not replacing the black smoke monster with a robot and polar bears with mediocre CGI.
