This is an exciting and visually stunning series; it had me enraptured within minutes of the opening credits and I never wanted the episodes to end. Those giving only 1 or 2 stars really need to check their perspective. No, it does not religiously follow the original story line. No, the robot isn't campy. And no, the Robinson's are not a happy, trouble-free family. This series is a "remake" - expect some changes, sit back, relax, and enjoy the story. If we always feel the need to deconstruct such amazing creations, we'd never be able to enjoy other great movies such as Star Wars, Narnia, or Lord of the Rings. Get over it!
