My first impression of this series is a continuation of "Lost" + dinosaurs. I watched about 1 hour total of the whole “Lost” series.
I thought the second “Terra Nova” episode showed just how people in the future may be pretty stupid. For example, “Hey those bird-like dinosaurs look just like the ones that attacked my dad and I last night. I bet they are the same one’s who killed the 3 people the day before. Let’s stand here like dumb%*#’$ and admire all 200-300 of them.”
I plan to watch more episodes because I like anything sci-fi. I can only hope the show improves.
