If not for Dr. Smith this couldve been half decent And dont get me wrong, I dont mind a good villain or a good troublemaker in a show, they can make great stories and drama/problems for the main character(s). Like Janice from Sopranos, an annoying, hypocritical person who brought constant problems but she was written excellent, you understood her motivation and could predict her responses to an extent because of that.
Dr. Smith on the other hand, at least in this incarnation of Lost in Space, is (extremely) poorly written, her actions are an end in themselves and is nothing but an annoyance and detractor from anything good about the show and hold back the pace. She does bad things only to do them and make problem. Theres nothing beyond that, they made her a troublemaker and thats it, no logic beyond,not really anyway,.
Sure, they tried some terrible inconsistent backstory but it was, again, an end in itself with no logic nor was linked to character "evolution" on the show.
So all in all, I love sci-fi, I liked this show for the most part however Dr. Smith ruins it. I actually skipped forward a lot, sometimes I just paused and stopped wathing for a while and resumed in the evening because how stupid and annoying that character was.
So please, either get some better writers or learn to write better characters because arguably Dr.Smith in this show is one the of worst and most poorly written character Ive seen in any show, ever. Shes not even a character,just an animated medium with no personality created for making drama and trouble.
