My watching of this is hampered by my wife's rewatch of Dallas... from the beginning... I haven't even seen the first episode yet!

Wow. Dallas! Have fun! ;)

I liked the 3rd better than the second. My wife saw the beginning of this one before i did and she said you will like the beginning of this.[spoiler]And yes I loved that the guy got eaten by the dinosaur!! I loved it and said thats AWESOME! The wife said "I knew you would like that." Is there something wrong with me?? [/spoiler]

Seen the first hour of the initial two-parter now and quite enjoyed it. Obviously, it's all setup so far so I'll let you know what I think once I get deeper into story.

Can't you pop Man From Atlantis on and tell her it's Dallas!

I thought this weeks episode was pretty good, enjoying this series quite a bit
[spoiler]The stuff with Taylors past was interesting, hopefully it comes into play a bit more, as seemed pretty intense[/spoiler]

Finally watched last Monday's episode and..well, I'm giving up on it. I just can't make myself like this show.

I'm still on the edge, going to see what tonight brings...

Not sure how we relate to your schedule but I've just watched last Mondays episode (it had birds in it) and I think I'm quite charmed by this one.

I'm moving onto tonight's show now. I'll see what I think after that but I think this is a keeper for me, so far (and if I get much further in I'll probably watch to the end whether I like it or not).

From this description, sounds like you're one week behind.

Yeah, just realised that a part of the current episode corresponds to something you said about last weeks episode over there.

An ok episode this week with the little girl. Overall the show is just kind of average so far to me. I keep thinking of how these people are in this exotic new location, and the problems they seem to deal with for the most part are kind of petty and small. Where's the exploration and adventure aspect? I know it's dangerous out there, but I want to see more of that and learn what's out there. Anyway, I'll keep watching but I think the series might be on borrowed time.

Bryancd · October 19, 2011, 07:39:08 PM

Agree, Rico. And the Sixes are way too Lord of the Flies/Road Warrior. It's really hard to believe just because they split with Tera Nova they become savages with painted faces. WTF?

Dangelus · October 20, 2011, 12:24:13 AM

Yeah. I agree with all these points. Distinctly average so far. Watchable, but average.

I get a funny vibe from it like I'm watching a show from te 1990's also. Weird.

Hopefully they will crank it up a notch in the next few episodes but I too have the feeling this will not get renewed at the moment.

Bryancd · October 20, 2011, 07:34:57 AM

Yeah, I think the biggest shame here is that the show isn't bad...it's boring. How they can take this premise and make it dull is beyond me.
