Terra Nova

Looks decent, will give it a go, not watching a series ATM, (The Office doesn't count)

The idea looks shit.

I don't think Humans can even breath the air 85m years ago for starts, it would have been too rich in oxygen, not mentioning it would be tropical hell 100% of the year, hardly a paradise, never mind the dinosaurs and giant insects, how the fuck are you going to eat? What do you know what is safe to eat? On top of all that, these kind of science fiction genre ALWAYS dismiss diseases that would've easily wiped out all of these human populations within months.

It's the future invading the dinosaurs, I think we can put those things aside.

It's not more rich in oxygen... because if our atmosphere were just a little bit more oxygenated than it is now it would burst into flames.

Aside from that, they didn't have to go back 85 million years ago... They could have gone back any other time, after giant reptiles that want to eat you were gone.

Always the fine details. I'm just thankful for the setting, for that I can ignore a few faults.

Who in the right mind would go back in time before a giant meteor hit the planet.

Honestly most stupid idea ever.

I would.

If you have to build a civilization then we as a human race are fucked.

The mammals survived, I'm sure with the addition of foresight it can be navigated.

if we somehow survived.... Our infrastructure would get fucked forcing us to start over.



Fuck that.

More of a spectacle. That's all that matters.

That's the least of their concerns. The meteorite doesn't hit for another twenty years. More than enough time to build a human civilization advanced enough to shield themselves from the effects of the meteorite.

Meteorite doesn't hit until several million years after they go back, it's not a problem that they would be very concerned about.

Looks great, main plot has potential though I must have missed something because I have got a good grasp of it yet. Still waiting to see a Triceratops but there was a Brontesaurus (I think) and a few predators. Not liking the badman teenage son element at all, adds nothing to the actual story, takes screentime away from much more interesting stuff, and it's rather inevitable that there is a romance bound to come up. At least she's fit. Good premiere anyway, but too much sentimentality.

This really isn't that good. I'm going to see it through, but it's on at 8 for a reason.....the cheesy family plots.

yea but im really interested in finding other shows to watch on my free time

I couldn't get past the first few episodes. Questionable casting choices and the abundance of corny dialogue/themes didn't help.

The atmosphere did actually have more oxygen. And the atmosphere did actually burst into flames during lightning storms.

So from this thread, this show is best swerved?

It's been cancelled.

LOL.

Forgot it existed actually.

Shitty show.

The women & her daughter are hot as fuck

Could be resurrected one another network, but for now it is gone. Guess I'll never know what goes on in the Badlands. That whole family theme killed the show.
