Casting has begun on next years (if I remember right it's out sometime next year...or 2018 ) Lost In Space reboot on Netflix. Dr. Smith....is being played by Parker Posey... yes that's right. Dr. Smith is a woman now... *blinks* :teek:

Oh the pain! Just kidding, I love Parker Posey so that sounds cool.

I hope the robot is a legit looking robot and they don't cheap out and make it a fleshy android.

With Lost In Space being on Netflix, I have a feeling its gonna be dark, The TV Show and movie were lighthearted.

Lost in Space without Jonathan Harris...isn't Lost in Space anymore as far as I'm concerned. Many people don't realize just how involved he was with the show.

Interesting take...

But, it is a bit of a Man Fest in that ship, so I can see why they'd do it. It's...what, just the mom and two daughters?

I did actually watch the first season of Lost in Space, but got bored in the second. Ironically, when it went to color, when it should have been a little more exciting?

I'm hoping they can get some of the original cast members involved... at the very least Bill Mumy, who was Will Robinson - Interesting Note: he and Harris were the only two surviving members of the original show's cast who didn't appear in the 1998 film version.

Raza Jaffrey (never heard of him) has been cast in the Lost In Space reboot as a new character named Victor.

Victor is described as "Well groomed, educated and officious, with a sense of entitlement, Victor has been a career builder and politician from a young age. There is arrogance and impatience about him. All this masks the underlying fear that he’ll one day be found out — that he isn’t quite good enough." :roll:

Finished season 2. Not bad but... man, those were some non-committal deaths in the last episode. Also a pretty flat cliffhanger to leave things on. And shouldn't we have the alien monkey pet by now?

I saw the trailer for this and thought it looked good but I didn't really get that captured by the first 2 eps, I know you have to give something a bit longer than that so I will get back to it, around other things I want to watch. I liked it as a child and watched the re-runs on TV but I'm not like a hard core fan or anything.

The series reboot didn't catch on with my family and, that does say something since my dad was a fan of the older series. With the exception of the alien monkey, my Pops even liked the movie.

I've yet to see the rebooted LiS.

[Andrew NDB]

It's worth watching, for sure. For what they're going for budget-wise I'd urge them to shrink their episodes to like... eh, maybe 8 per season, but it's pretty cool. Season 2 played with some big sci-fi stuff.

Unfortunately, with not really any answers. Two seasons in, we don't know anything about the robots or who made them.

Trailer for the final season. Are they ever going to introduce the alien monkey, or has that ship sailed?
