(40,416 posts)Same plot every week.
* Aliens land near lost in space family.
* Robot waves arms and says, "Danger, DANGER!!!"
* Professor colludes with aliens anyway, putting everybody in mortal peril.
* Little boy saves the day, again.
* Family fails to justifiably murder turncoat Professor yet again.
The only worse program: probably My Mother, the Car
(Either that, or Hee Haw)

(45,488 posts)I'll give the reboot a try. Even if it isn't great, it'll be some campy-retro fun.
* The robot was voiced by Dick Tufeld, one of the great voice actors of all time

At least FP was based on Shakespeare's The Tempest.
I couldn't stand the Dr. Smith character. What a simpering idiot!!! I don't think I watched more than a couple episodes. I found the plots formulaic and childish.
Sorry.

(25,372 posts)I watched a few episodes of the original and was quickly bored with it. I liked the first two episodes, but it was just cheesy.
