I'm shocked the usual auto-hate for a remake isn't running rampant in here! I watched the original series over and over when I was kid and it was in constant syndication. I always really liked the first few episodes, and never got why it went so campy. I read something somewhere that the episodes beyond the pilot were basically based off of Penny's diaries, hence them seeming more innocent and silly... that may have been fan fiction I stumbled on in the early AOL days, not anything official.
I loved the look/tech of the remake movie, but the cutesy CG pet and their decision to make it about being lost in time instead of space annoyed me.
I'm totally willing to give this a shot. This is actually the third attempt at a reboot not counting the remake movie. ABC commissioned a pilot but never shot it, and there was another reboot film in the works 2010-2011. I'm glad something finally happened.
