« Pocahontas speaks with a forked tongue | Jewish minority white-skinned privileged male named Harvard's president; racist diversifiers object » Share Share | Twitter | Facebook | 188 Comments | Print | Email February 23, 2018 New Lost in Space has a black Judy Robinson, a Hispanic Major West, and a female Dr. Smith By Ed Straker Netflix is remaking the campy 1960s series Lost in Space. As might be expected, the network is doing everything it can to ethnically cleanse white people and men from the cast, but it's a hard proposition, given that in the original series, the story focused on Professor John Robinson, a white man; his white wife, Maureen Robinson; Major Don West, a white man; Will Robinson, a white boy; and Dr. Zachary Smith, a white man.

The show-runners started by replacing Dr. Smith with a woman, Parker Posey. Yes, Dr. Smith is now a girl (in much the same way that Britain's Dr. Who is now Nurse Who).

Then Major West was replaced with a Hispanic character, played by Ignacio Serricchio. Okay, Major West is Spanish now. Maybe he should be called "Major Oeste."

But the most confusing part is that Judy West is now being played by black actress Taylor Russell.

"Bring back Matt Smith, Karen Gillan, and Billie Piper."

Amen to that! (Although I might add an off-subject person to that list: Jeri Ryan)

Yes indeed! From the era when diversity was comical...If I can ever get the DVD’s back from the great grandkids, I’ll re-watch the show later this year...Think it’s been five years since the last time...

Will there be another Great Vegetable Rebellion?

(Trivis: The giant carrot is being played by the same actor who played Cyrano Jones in Star Trek's "The Trouble With Tribbles". I suspect he's thinking, "Eh. It's a living.")

On a related note, you KNOW they are going to make sure Black Panther cleans up all possible awards at the next Oscars.

The originals should be available somewhere, the newer version holds no interest for me at all.

But will Dr Smith still be trying to get into Will Robinson’s pants?

Even the 60’s show it was obvious that the doctor was a flaming homo who was more interested in Will than he was with Judy or Penny.

The original Dr. Smith was a whiny little bitch, so no great change for him/her.

and a female Dr. Smith

Dr Smith on the original show was a lying weasel, backstabbing low-life. Now that it’s cast as a woman, will those traits disappear and make Dr Smith a brilliant, courageous genius?
