Jeez.. this crap is still on the air!?
To be honest..I actually agree with you and am surprised it still is.

When I'm bored and there's nothing on, I'll turn it to Terranova and won't even be able to watch it..

The idea is cool though.
 
Have to agree. I've pretty much given up on it. Still record it, but its always one of the last shows I watch during the week (even if it comes on Monday.) For me the show would have been much stronger if it wasn't based around a family. But instead of random group that met when they went back in time. Also, the technology REALLY REALLY bothers me cause its sooo absurd. Lack of dinos also.
 
^ I think that would have been better..but I don't think that's the only thing wrong with the show.

I feel like I've seen everything in the show happen 1000000 times before..just kinda stale.

I think this is a pretty decent show. I like the who is the bad guy or good guy story. My only gripe on this is the CGI on the dinosaurs.
 
Been watching this since the first episode....but i don't know why. Its not very good story/development wise. Filled with pointless one-shot episodes. They need to move the story along and focus on a major season/series-spanning plot point/goal rather than the current "a family lost-in-time deals with a different wacky and zany adventure each episode".
 
I know the reviews haven't been great - but I really, really like this show. Sure some of the writing can be absurd, plotwise, but the characters are engaging and you really want to see where they're taking them.

And as for the LOST angle -
they just gave us the entire mythology in Monday's episode - so now we know where we're going. Having a big mystery is good for some shows, but I don't know that it would have worked for this one.
 
My wife says the problem with this show is not enough people are getting eaten by dinosaurs. The fact that entire episodes take place with no one getting eaten is a total waste, she says.

I have to admit the strongest part of the whole series was the first 15 minutes of the first episode.

I will be surprised if this sees a second season.
 
I guess I'm in the minority. I actually look foward to this everyweek. Too bad that it may not see another season though.

I have this on DVR and I still can't watch it. Funny or sad part is that when I do watch I don't care about anything that happens. Usually when I have something on DVR I'll pause it if I have to go get something or if I didn't quite get something I'll rewind it. This show I'll let it play through no pausing. Shoot, I'll be dosing off and feel no need to go back a see what I missed. In the end I'm just happy I can delete it and open more space to DVR something else.
 
Its not the worst thing on TV, but the show does feel a bit meh when I watch it. I've missed two episodes and honesty don't think I missed anything significant.

The last episode was pretty good though, they answered enough questions to make it interesting. Still think the family angle is kind of a bad idea... as a whole they are a boring lot :lol
