Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Thoughts:
1. Incredible looking show.
2. Interesting to see Will has aged up.
3. I don’t think I saw any Parker Posey. Good.
I’ll watch it.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
I love this show and it's too bad it's only getting 3 seasons. Such good production values. And yeah, Parker Posey was annoying.

I didn't like S1 well enough to watch S2. I gather it must've gotten better.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
S2 was much, much better. The writing was tighter and it made me want to see another season. I don't normally find I hate the first season of a show and it completely redeems itself in the next, but this was a pleasant surprise for me.
I also really like Parker Posey as Dr. Smith. Annoying? No. An interesting twist...for me, yes.

Maybe it was her manipulation of the kids that I hated although that is in-line with the old Dr. Smith.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Posey was almost the only element of S1 that I did like. What ruined it for me was the Perils of Pauline writing. That, and they weren't really even lost in space until the season finale. Maybe I'll give S2 a go. I'm finishing Mare of Easttown tonight and don't have another show on deck at the moment.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Yeah, see what made it annoying for me was just how intensely conniving a character she was, that and the fact she wouldn't stay down when on the out. Those are peeves of mine with TV show writing in general, of characters that are like cats with 9 lives. There was one character on Hell on Wheels that was like that, where the character was seen to perish in a waterfall, and yet miraculously survived. Gretchen Mol's character on Boardwalk Empire was also like that and even stuck around with nothing to do after her character arc was finished. What she had survived should have killed her.Scoop20906 wrote: ↑Sun Oct 10, 2021 6:52 pm Maybe it was her manipulation of the kids that I hated although that is in-line with the old Dr. Smith.
I actually liked Posey's character in LiS much more in the second season as they'd toned her down.
As an aside, holy cow, Boardwalk Empire is 10 years old??

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Every main character on that show has 9 lives. Dr. Smith was hardly the only one.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
No, you're right. It just seems way more obvious in a villain though.

Released today (final season). Here's the trailer - full of spoilers.

We watched the 1st episode this morning during Ethan's treatment. Will sure looks grown up while the other kids look the same.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
That makes sense considering the actor portraying Will Robinson started the role when he was 37.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Final season started a bit slow, but about 3 episodes in it started to kick into high gear. Really enjoying it so far.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
The fam and I just finished the season. We’ve enjoyed it from the beginning and was sad it came to an end but we were happy that they ended strong.

Re: [Netflix] Lost in Space reboot series
Having just slogged thru the first two, that's good to hear. I hope Parker Posey gets back to some serious conniving, too.
