A show with the basic premise of a fight for survival only works if as a viewer you're actually rooting for the main characters to survive. The worst thing about this show is that they don't all die. The main driver of the plot is stupidity,A show with the basic premise of a fight for survival only works if as a viewer you're actually rooting for the main characters to survive. The worst thing about this show is that they don't all die. The main driver of the plot is stupidity, and behaviour that makes you think the writers had never met another human being before. Throw in a couple morality lessons for kindergarteners and i guess you can call it "philosophical" discussions, and you have your standard lazily made modern tv show. It gets a three mainly for the production values, great look and effects. The story is paint by numbers and does nothing really exciting or interesting, but it also isn't awful. What really ruins it are the main characters which are somewhere between uninteresting and completely insufferable. Even a solid cast couldn't polish this turd. The only redeeming, interesting characters are Judy and Don but it's not nearly enough.
If as a viewer you can't really buy these people being capable of surviving, and more importantly don't want them to survive, it makes for a pretty much complete failure of a show.
And this is coming from someone who never watched the original.… Expand

Great production and CG, it’s great movie if your 8 year old nephew comes over to watch a movie together. It’s too kiddy for me, none of the characters ever die so how fun is that ? And not realistic. Hollywood shoving the female power downGreat production and CG, it’s great movie if your 8 year old nephew comes over to watch a movie together. It’s too kiddy for me, none of the characters ever die so how fun is that ? And not realistic. Hollywood shoving the female power down our throats by making Dr. Smith a woman!!! And Judy is played by a black girl. Why do they keep doing this. All we needed was a transgender and gay love affair to complete this,
Not interesting enough for adults, great for kids. Feels super Disney ish… Expand

Seasons 2 of this show is one of the worst examples of 'contrived danger' I have ever seen in a series. Maybe it's part of the 'formula' that the family needs to be in constant, neverending, cascading, chainlinked dangerous situations againSeasons 2 of this show is one of the worst examples of 'contrived danger' I have ever seen in a series. Maybe it's part of the 'formula' that the family needs to be in constant, neverending, cascading, chainlinked dangerous situations again and again and again and again but my god it's so insufferably predictable it actually breaks the immersion of the show and makes it an absolute chore to watch.

If you watch this show with the mindset for each and every new event of 'and how will THIS event cause the family to be in danger?' you will literally never be disappointed because something will be along in under fifteen seconds to show you how it will put the family in danger.

If you attempt to watch season 2 while being in possession of pattern recognition, the show quickly become tired, stale, predictable, and utterly banal. Wow the family is in danger! But don't worry, something will come along and they'll be out of the danger in a minute or so and then something new will come along to put them back into danger. But don't worry, something will come along and they'll be out of the danger in a minute or so and then something new will come along and put them back into danger. But don't worry! Something will come along and put them back in danger--

And I'm sure you get the point.

Spare yourself from this insufferably formulaic hogwash.… Expand

honestly, I’m starting to see second season practically today. but, I think I saw enough material to predict the dramatic fall into the oblivion, that the total lack of fantasy and the horrible predictability of the writers, manage to crushhonestly, I’m starting to see second season practically today. but, I think I saw enough material to predict the dramatic fall into the oblivion, that the total lack of fantasy and the horrible predictability of the writers, manage to crush into. a real cruise towards a script so poor that you’re almost unable to recognise the series. if not for the characters. after neither a whole hour of first episode, you’re starting to feel the compelling need to go fast forward or even to switch to another series. and I waited more than an entire year, anxiously, to peel the second season slowly and tastefully. this is not the case. author’s confidence is important. and when you switch a spaceship into a sailboat, you’re the first crying in your sleep. and anyway, where the fuzz is the robot, the only friendly figure that could keep alive and far from the steel lung? no sign of the robot, til now.… Expand

The problem with this show is the plot generally relies on most of the characters being stupid which makes them annoying and makes it frustrating to watch. Clearly it has a big budget, and could be good, it just needs to be more intelligent.

If you like Hollywood's WOKE agenda you'll love this piece of garbage. Dr. Smith is now a woman. Judy is now black. And Will is a wimpy, unintelligent (probably gay) character. After enjoying the masterpiece of the 60s, this was unwatchable.If you like Hollywood's WOKE agenda you'll love this piece of garbage. Dr. Smith is now a woman. Judy is now black.

None of the characters are likeable, and none of them have any chemistry.… Expand

Season 1 was alright, season 2 was just bad, season 3 was abysmal. The ONLY thing this show had going for it was the special effects and graphics. But the story itself became blatantly predictable. I lost count of the number of "close calls"Season 1 was alright, season 2 was just bad, season 3 was abysmal. The ONLY thing this show had going for it was the special effects and graphics. But the story itself became blatantly predictable. I lost count of the number of "close calls" just for "narrow" escapes. The corny heartfelt speeches, storytelling, and acting became nauseating almost as much as Will's perverted obsession with his robot. The music definitely didn't help. "The Robinson family sticks together" into the spiraling black hole… Expand
