I dislike the series, mainly because I can't relate with the characters as they were presented/acted and I don't like the serialized format. The premise is good, I think it is very realistic despite the scientific flaws (?!) . About the PC, I think that it is intended for a new world, a new public, a new family and new points of view. I agree that put John Robinson as a dummy male was too much, but in the original series nobody remembers that Maureen is a botanist, but then it's the 60s. If you want to explore space, don't expect it will be an easy task, that is what the series shows.
