I was going to mention the cameo parts in the movie version by actors from the original series - specifically those who played Mrs Robinson (appeared as Will's school Principal), Judy & Penny (appeared as reporters at news conference) and Major Don West (played the part of the"new" Don West's boss, ie space military forces).

The new movie maybe didn't have the "quirkiness" of the original, and I'm sure wasn't meant to, but then if it DID look like the old TV show people would have criticised it from here to eternity asking why millions of dollars and decades of cinematic progress hadn't been able to produce a sleeker looking movie.

I rather liked it, I'd give it a good 7 out of 10, and I would have liked to see them do a second movie to see what they could come up with.
