QuoteBeverly Hills, CA â€" June 29, 2016 â€" Netflix, the world’s leading Internet TV network, has ordered a 10-episode first season of the one-hour sci-fi drama, from Legendary TV, based on the beloved 1960’s sci-fi classic from Irwin Allen. Reimagined by feature writing team Matt Sazama and Burk Sharpless (Dracula Untold, Last Witch Hunter), with Zack Estrin (Prison Break) showrunning, the series will premiere worldwide on Netflix in 2018.
I enjoyed the original when I was a child. Though even back then, the campy/fakiness of it was irritating.

The movie, had some terrific SFX, and a nearly perfect cast(including the voice of the original "Robot"), but was completely ruined by a lousy script.

I hope they keep it light, but don't make it stupid.

I was reading Heinlein, van Vogt, Simak, Azimov, etc., back then. "Lust in Space" made me shudder. (Though the hot chick was worth a look.)

Exactly.
I hope it spawns some memes, however. I love the fact that they'll have subtitles so we don't have to add them.
