Netflix has become more and more known for its original series and movies rather than those they carry. If you are as big a fan as I am of some of Netflix's original series like "Black Mirror," "A Series of Unfortunate Events," "Frontier" and "Stranger Things," then strap in for their most recent series, "Lost in Space."

Just to get something to preface this article, I hate outer space. It freaks me out, honestly. I can watch horror movies for hours on end, but when it comes to something happening in space, I'm out. When it came to watching this show however, I did not feel the same way.

Netflix's "Lost in Space" is a modern adaption of an older classic version of the science fiction TV show. The original series ran from 1965-1968 with a total of three seasons. With the classic version having high ratings and a large following, Netflix had their work cut out for them.

"Lost in Space" follows the Robinson family. In just the first episode, they start to run into problems; what's a better introduction to a show than immediate danger and tragedy?

The Robinson family runs into problems when their ship crash lands onto an alien planet that appears to be completely covered in ice. Unfortunately for them, the water into which their ship crashed freezes in just minutes with their ship and daughter under the surface.

The Robinson family must also face struggles with their ships fuel, unfamiliar dangers and a peculiar doctor.

They must fight for survival through every second of the series to protect themselves and each other.

Flashbacks were a big topic throughout the series, which are said to return if Netflix releases another season. As with most TV shows and movies, flashbacks are a sign that something typically tragic happened in the past, causing the events of the present.

If flashbacks are said to return with another season, it can only be assumed that the Robinson family has some dark secrets to share.

Now that we've got danger lurking around every corner and flashbacks popping up every so often, you probably think the show is full of action and they don't need to add anything. Well, the writers of the show would disagree with you because they decided to throw in a robot just for fun. Now, if there was anything about this show that would have caused it to flop, it would have been this. Luckily, the robot was implemented in a non-corny way and works well when compared to the classic series.

An aspect of the show that made it truly something special was the reality of how a family operates and communicates. The Robinsons aren't the perfect family and that came across in every episode. We see the Robinsons fight and argue, but also love one another unconditionally.

If you are ready to blast off into space with the Robsinson family, head over to Netflix and check out "Lost in Space."
