TV Top Picks This Week
Don’t Miss: “Lost in Space” — Danger, Will Robinson? By now it’s clear: In TV, everything old is new again. And so we have a “modern reimagining” of the campy 1960s science fiction series. Set 30 years in the future, colonization in space is now a reality, and the Robinson family is among those selected to make a new life for themselves in a better world. But when the colonists are abruptly torn off course en route to their new home they must work together to survive in a dangerous alien environment. Toby Stephens and Molly Parker lead the cast. (Friday, Netflix).
