The first season of a reimagined Lost In Space series premieres on the Netflix streaming service. As with the 1960s series, the new show follows the exploits of the Robinson family as they are stranded on an alien planet with a shifty passenger known only as Dr. Smith, though the story is generally given a more serious, mysterious tone than the light-hearted family-hour viewing of the original show. Molly Parker, Toby Stephens, Maxwell Jenkins, Mina Sundwall, and Parker Posey star. The new series gains enough of a following for Netflix to quickly green-light a second season, which will not premiere until late 2019.
