Anyone enjoying Lost in Space Reboot

[TheSword]

It’s been out a few years now and up to season 3.

I’ve only just discovered it, and I must say I’m quite a fan. Don’t want to add spoilers but it feels like a series that is full of adventure. The worlds are pretty well detailed and interesting. There are lots of NPCs… I mean supporting characters. The primary antagonists are pretty intimidating.

It’s also funny. Particularly Don and Dr Zoe Smith (who is a glorious reinvention of doctor Zachery Smith and a far more 3d character)

They pass a hell of a lot of Knowledge checks and are already on the receiving end of whatever awful circumstances befall anyone… so kinda like the typical adventuring party.

I’d cheerfully recommend it. Here’s the season 1 trailer.

sorry, nope. We dropped it after 4-6 episodes if I recall. too much dumb people syndrome.

I liked the first season. Unfortunately, it is in my queue of things I watch on my own, as my wife isn't really a fan. And, with covid-time, my wife and I are usually watching stuff together, so that queue doesn't get any shorter.

I quite enjoyed it, even though I was raised on the original. I thought that it was a much better take than the 1998 movie and managed to tell a new, and interesting story while using the same basic framework.

I liked the first season, then at some point I lost interest when things were getting more and more fantastical.

I don't watch it, not so much into science fiction. But my Dad, my Dad enjoys it a lot.

My wife and I loved this show. We rewatched season 1 when 2 came out, then rewatched both when 3 dropped. Every character had flaws, but every one also had redeeming qualities. And the situations were always changing so they're not always alone, not always on a planet, or not always safe. It had just the right amount of reasonable threat to keep the narrative moving forward and maintaining the tension every episode.

It's better than it needs to be. They've thought ab out the sicence and environments of distant worlds with a realism that has never been attempted in Star Trek, which is both unnecessary and appreiated. The season 1 episode involving the ic e is very satisfying, and in spite of the campy/family sf fun, the chance to see 90s-indy-darling Parker Posey again is very satisfying.

the casting of the parents is great (both quality substantial actors, committing more than they need to). I enjoyed it.

We watched 4 or 5 episodes but didn't continue. I think there were too many shows at the same time. Maybe it's time to start watching it again.

I enjoyed the first season yet I haven't bothered to return to the others.
