OK, so I'm in two minds about this show. On the one hand there is much to enjoy... the production quality is pretty good, certain aspects (Robot, Mr Smith) have received a welcome update but some aspects are quite schlocky... It reminds me a little of the ill-fated 'Terra Nova' starring Stephen Lang. Really great visuals but lacking a little depth. I'm going to give the whole season a try as nothing has really zoned me out yet but I'm wondering what others think?
I was lost in space, Juliette. Did Stephens have a new patio that needed paying for after Black Sails folded?
(See what I did there?)
I was enamored with the original tv series. As a departure for the series, the wife took the commanding role. The robot was much different and seemed to have less of a sense for protection for the family as a whole. The daughter and the male second in command character were played down in the film. I enjoyed the film though I yearned for a bit more of the original characterization.
