.... the longer the show went on, the more this initial hope subsided to disappointment. Initially the plot really captured my interest. The opening really made me curious and invested into the story. How did these space settlers end up lightyears away from their intended destination? Where exactly are they? What is this strange robot? There are so many interesting mysteries and open questions begging to be resolved... Initially I also liked the main villain of the show. The writers really achieved to invoke a particular disdain in the viewer for this villain that made me really excited for the moment when the villain's treachery would finally be revealed! So far, the show really looked good! Towards the end of season 1, and particularly the entire 2nd season, the show descended to the bottom of the barrel. For starters, the show follows a pattern that repeats itself endlessly. 1. The family embarks on an adventure 2. they encounter a great danger 3. they narrowly escape death. 4. and finally after the danger has passed, they all hug each other and profess their loves towards one another in tears. It's the same contrived pattern over and over again.... It's one action episode after another, there is nothing to break up or vary the standard flow of events a little bit. What really kills the show though are the unbelievably stupid behaviors and actions by the people involved as well as the laziness of the plot in the way certain details are explained (especially tech related stuff). Do you know the frustrating feeling when it's impossible to understand why someone behaves in a certain way? The feeling when dumb behavior leads to calamity that would have easily been prevented and the only response you can muster is a face palm? That's what this show descends into, one face palm after another until your forehead becomes red. And lastly, the standard "Hollywood-entertainment-feel-good-lines" that are increasingly sprinkled into the story as the show progresses do not help either. Empty professions of love and reassurances do become a bit annoying if exaggerated and used in trivial contexts, and this show is certainly guilty of this. This show really could have been a special dish, instead it's just another big mac from the automatic assembly line that tastes the same like all the other of millions of big macs already out there...
