I know. You all missed this.
Below are just a few notes that went through my head while watching the first episode. After that I started paying attention to the show.
Here are the following things I have learned:
- Few people (at least that I know) have actually seen lost in space. And I am not just talking about the old TV show, I am also talking about the movie! (See below) I know, the movie isn’t the greatest, but I really enjoyed watching it. The characters (okay, the kids and the pilot) had a lot of personality. And, honestly, the movie Penny and Judy are far better than the current renditions. Penny just… there isn’t much to her character in this version.
- They made the main protagonist a female. Just, you know, a note. Not saying either one was better, I think they both get the creepy vibe across, but the original doctor actually could pull off the whole “I am normal and not crazy” thing better. Just saying.
- We lost the pilot. I know, he is still there, physically, but the character is different. Though the chicken makes me smile EVERY TIME, but I don’t get why they are trying to make him a bit of a bad guy. Honestly, this is my least favorite version of Don. And, I wish they would have gone the novel route and made him a scientist.
- The parents are pretty good. So far.
- I have mixed feelings about the robot.
I will try to post another update when I finish watching this series. I will say that there are some beautiful shots of the world, and that this is a very different concept from the original or remake.

And let’s all split up now to do things, because magnesium.
