Really poor writing-so many loopholes in the plot. Sunken ship-no problem- the robot has super duper hot hands and can dry it out in minutes!!

I wouldn't say Dad is an idiot. He's a military guy who neglected his family and now he's suddenly stuck living with them after his wife pretty much ran the household for (apparently) over a decade in his absence. I was disappointed in Will's timidity too. He seems substantially more immature than the original. The original was a bit of a Mary Sue though and I think the show was meant to be seen through the eyes of an adolescent boy. This show definitely is not targeted primarily to 12 or 13 year old boys like the original was.
