After crash-landing on an alien planet, the Robinson family fight against all odds to survive and escape, but they're surrounded by hidden dangers.
The first episode of the Lost in Space remake hooked me. The writers took some of the basic premises from the original but created something new with nods to the original. The new series is full of action (almost too much) and lots of suspense.
My favorite change is in the robot. Whoa, it is creepy! It has its own backstory that is covered in the first episode. What I don't understand is how Will can communicate with it but no one else can. It imprinted on Will like a baby duck. Maybe there will be more answers later in the series.
The Robinson family dynamic is much different from the original. Episode one starts off with the crash landing of the Jupiter. Scenes alternate between the present and flashbacks to catch you up on how they ended up on the alien planet. Another great change is with Dr. Z. Smith. In the original series, he was a plant to sabotage the mission. The new Dr. Smith is a woman with a different backstory. We only get a few glimpses of who she is, but one thing is very clear, she is dangerous.
The opening scene is fantastic. Caught me off guard. Once they crash everything goes wrong. The odds of that many near-death experiences happening? Kind of pushing it even for a sci-fi show.
I've seen the first two episodes and plan to continue watching. This one is worth a look if you like sci-fi.
