I’ve seen a lot of stuff with J Lo in it and never once did I come away thinking she was someone who could play a serious sci fi role.
This trailer kinda affirms that, a lot.

I did come away from this thinking she could do well as a cheerfully out of touch middle-aged mom who is pretty sure she's a dork, but isn't 100% convinced she is.
I guess if the trailer just makes me focus on someone pretending to be the character, it was probably miscast. The rest of the trailer also looks like expensive B-movie half-assery a la Red Notice, so I'm not going to get too worked up over it, though.
The whole thing, unfortunately, just doesn't look particularly good. Usually Sci-Fi shows are either complete trash or get cancelled after a couple seasons (typically when the plot thickens).
She is a strong actress, I really liked her in Shades of Blue. But yeah, she can't really play in sci fi.... It's just green screens and computers.
:/
I was excited by the thumbnail and it was all downhill from there.
Halfway through I thought it had hit rock bottom but it kept going downhill.
Netflix has really gone downhill.
Looks like cgi all over... Like a cartoon.
AI writers are already planting the seeds of "You should trust AI. AI keeps you alive."
Deranged nutjobs are already infesting the fediverse with moronic conspiracy bullshit.
Seems like a fence swing. I'm intrigued.
Besides J.Lo and the CGI special effects and pedestrian plot, it looks almost interesting.
