Overview

Terra Nova once again proves to be one of the better shows to come out on television, partly because it's filled with dinosaurs, guns and family comedy. Honestly, this show, with its prehistoric setting and continual use of futuristic technology, packed quite a blast and definitely delivered. One of its few problems was, however, that Fox decided to cancel it. 

Platypus Rating = 4

Wow, the second show to get a 4. But this one really does deserve it. Beautiful sets and and superb acting really bring out the family adventure theme this show revolves around. Of course, the inclusion of Stephen Lang guaranteed some explosive action and we were certainly not disappointed. What really made this show stand out was the superior graphical rendering of the dinosaurs included in the film. They were realistic, sharp and infinitely better than those shown elsewhere.

Favorite Episode

It's funny, but all of them really. All the episodes in the season were interconnected, well developed and had a great sense of continuity and promise - something a lot of other shows seriously lack. But if I had to choose, the season finale episode rockets to the top with its action-packed exploration of new themes and startling discoveries. A must watch for all science nerds, family enthusiasts and of course, dinosaur lovers!

One Response so far.

  1. Awesome review! I still wish they hadn't cancelled season 2.
