I see nothing wrong with the premise per se. Those comparing it to Lost seem to me to be making the same argument for why VOY would just be Lost In Space (which it most certainly was not).
But at present it really is a sketchy notion. To judge it properly one needs to flesh it out, to indicate a direction it might head towards. Two big questions come to mind.
1. What is this planet like? Is it seemingly barren and hostile like Dune? Is there an abandoned high tech city like Stargate Atlantis? A once mighty civilization with atavistic remnants hovering nearby a la Land of the Lost? Were its natives godlike but now vanished for some mysterious reason like Forbidden Planet? All over the place but extremely alien, so much so we have trouble understanding them and vice versa the way Earth 2 did it? Did someone else try to colonize this place but failed and leave signs/clues of what happened before?
2. Who are the characters? Some hint of this would help, a lot.
