Terra Nova

[X5N]

Anybody else watch it?

I think the concept is great, but the actual show itself is just mediocre, yet I somehow keep watching it.

I also can't help but complain about how unimaginative the writers were about gender norms more than a century in the future, but I'm not entirely sure if my criticisms are at all well-founded. And anyways, I figure since it's a show on a major network, they're of course going to be less concerned about well-thought-out writing.

I hate the idea...

Killing a butterfly in the past

[Commissar Rykov]

I have just started watching it from Episode 1 onward. It is an interesting idea but something is lacking with the story and writing and I can't put my finger on it. I do like most of the characters but there is just something bland about it. It doesn't help that the writing seems to be extremely predictable at times as well. Like you I keep watching but there is something that just bugs me about it. If it wasn't different then most of the other crap on TV I probably wouldn't bother.

I watch it and find it to be enjoyable. It is weird because there is that extra something missing and nobody can figure out what it is. I didn't watch last night's episode because the Bears were on, but I heard it was pretty good.

[Dogs On Acid]

I like the concept, but the acting and writing is so bloody corny.

[TheGodlessUtopian]

I have heard that the show, while possessing a somewhat interesting story, is mostly crap.

[Tablo]

I haven't seen it. I think the whole idea behind the show is nonsensical, but was going to give it a chance since it sounded different. Now I'm not even going to bother.

Killing a butterfly in the past
If you had seen the pilot you would know they are in a parallel universe (or similar) in the past so killing anything doesn't effect anything in the present in the current world. This was even mentioned in the first two episodes as part of the script.
