Shows Like Lost In Space That Sci-Fi Fans Need To Watch – Looper

One thing that sets "Lost in Space" apart is that it manages to balance the actual grim stakes of nearly dying in space a lot with a fundamental wholesomeness, or a sort of resolute positivity. It is as fantastical as the original series, but has a more modern warmth and humanity instead of the more cheesy '60s vibe. If you want a show that will take you further and make you cry actual tears, Cartoon Network's "Steven Universe" might actually be your best bet.

An '80s-inspired universe where galactic warriors called "Gems" protect the Earth from invasion, it tells the story of a half-human half-Gem named Steven that has a great destiny to fulfill. It's funny, beautifully drawn, and has the occasional musical number. It's purely entertaining for kids, while also telling a layered, fascinating story about family, identity, trauma, and many other things. By the time the story wraps up, somehow the bright colors and unexpected depth of empathy you feel for the characters makes you feel like Andy giving his toys away at the end of "Toy Story 3."
