Do you think they will show a mating pair of Brontosaurases in action?   I'm sure it will cause some groundquaking.

I think I detected a few plot holes in the first episode but will not discuss as to not spoil anything.

Jurassic Park revisited. This series won't last.

Watched it the other night and thought it was ok.  DVR is set to record the rest of the series so I'll wait till the 3rd or 4th episode before condemning it completely.

I've watched eps 1 and 2..

I'm fairly easily entertained and I'll give TN a double thumbs down.

They need Ian Malcolm to go and tell them how his chaos theory calculations prove correct and that they are going to fail epically and get eaten up by dinosaurs one by one.

My GF is a huge fan of dinosaurs (always wanted to be a paleontologist as a kid but settled on chemistry once she realized how little they tend to make) so she's been looking forward to this show for a long time.  I have to say that we're both pretty disappointed.  I'll probably watch the next few episodes as it's not painful to watch but it isn't quite what they hyped it up to be either.. but if things don't pick up by then it may turn into one of those "I'll see it if it just happens to be on when I turn on the TV" kind of shows.

Two and a half men on the other hand I kind of like.  Personally I thought that show would become horrible without a bi-winning personality but it's nice to know that I was wrong!  Just goes to show how important good writing is!  I felt they did a very nice job transitioning things over without losing the show's 'spirit'.

Its OK but I just watched the first episode last night and am still not sure exactly what the heck happened. I am going to give it two or three more to actually decide if its good enough to keep watching.

When people say the they watched the first episode is that the two hour premiere where the "cop guy" escapes from jail... or the one with the flying dinosaurs, where the "cop guy" keeps getting interruptted trying to get some from his wife?

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.
