Lost in Space - New Netflix series

[Streetrod]

I grew up watching and loving the original series but was disappointed when the film came out apart from the robot which was cool.

Can Netflix do a successful reboot, here’s hoping

Looks good.

cool beans - something else to look forward to

Toby Stephens as the lead... so it should be good. He was excellent in Black Sails.

Will they dump all the episodes in one go, or drip feed them in the conventional manner?

YouTube clip end frame said all episodes April 13th.

One of my favourite shows from my childhood, I was truly terrified of some episodes aged around 7 or 8 IIRC.

Thanks for the heads up on this one!

It will be really interesting to see the re-imagined Jupiter 2 and robot. Let’s hope the ship is still a saucer shape as this I think was an iconic designs, plus who will they get to play Doctor Smith????

In the trailer the ship does appear to be a saucer shape (at least on the bottom half).

And Doctor Smith is being played by.... actress Parker Posey.

Well, I guess it can only get better from the disappointing first episode.

I did not think it lived up to the promise of the trailer.

All episodes up today.

Just starting ep1, anyone watching?

[Sparky137]

Yes, see above!!!

Giving episode two a try to see if its any better than episode one.

If not I'll give the rest a miss.

[Sparky137]

Ok, better than episode one but still not great.

Watched the first one earlier. We liked it, good family viewing.

No real member of the original series or film.

[irocfan]

it's a slow burner but I'm enjoying it

[Wobbegong]

We’re loving it. Didn’t expect much after the poor effort with Star Trek, but this is good

[Otter Smacker]

Just watched the first episode to which I very much enjoyed.

[wjb]

Watched two episodes, it's keeping us entertained.

Never watched the original series or any previous films so coming in blind.

So far so good.

Bill Mumy, who played the original Will Robinson, has a cameo as the real Dr Smith.

I’m really enjoying this series, as is the entire family

[BossHogg]

Half way through the second episode, I'm enjoying it.
