    Another mediocrity Netflix lets go of the audience. The series is more drama like superhero movie. It's ok.
    But who picked up these lousy actors? How can you portray your role as boring and bad?
    No money for proper scriptwriters?

    The little kid does not know acting, very bad acting- I couldn’t finish the series, and I’m a fan of Netflix and sci fi movies and tv shows, I like to feel what I’m watching, but I just couldn’t continue watching with such bad acting by the little kid, wow I’m surprised the people filming this didn’t tell him or replaced him
    Clearly he is not ready for acting

    There might not be much, narratively, that is new to adult viewers – but is there ever? Still, it is a fresh twist and the evocation of incorruptible Spielbergian innocence that is maintained by centring the show on such young protagonists is restorative to the ageing, battered soul, even if the head cries out that it could have been compressed into six episodes to no detriment and probably quite some benefit.

    Overall, Raising Dion makes for an exciting children’s show about tapping into your power in order to make the world a better place. With more focus and a little more nerve, the show could make incredible leaps and bounds.

    None of this is breaking the mold in a big way, but “Raising Dion” isn’t aiming for original artistry at all costs. It wants to entertain, please, and maybe ever-so-slightly inform. Even with all the overt manipulations, this Netflix drama feels good-intentioned.
