I started watching it and got hooked quickly, seemed very interesting(I don't know the original series)but somewhere around the episode 4 realized from now on everything will evolve around Dr. Smith sneaky ways. It started to be a little ridiculous how nobody is suspicious of her and everything just works out in her favor. Seriously all those smart people on board and not one can feel her out from day one by the way she talks to them. I don't know the original show but the idea of Dr. Smith and her story being prolonged that long reminds me of evil characters in soap operas. Don't know if I want to keep watching it now. They should have got rid of that character rather quickly and just keep on what they were doing from the beginning.
