OFFICIAL SERIES SUMMARY FROM FOX:

From executive producers Steven Spielberg, Peter Chernin, Brannon Braga, René Echevarria and Aaron Kaplan comes an epic family adventure 85 million years in the making.
TERRA NOVA follows an ordinary family on an incredible journey back in time to prehistoric Earth as a small part of a daring experiment to save the human race. In the year 2149, the world is dying. The planet is overdeveloped and overcrowded, with the majority of plant and animal life extinct. The future of mankind is in doubt, and its only hope for survival is in the distant past.

When scientists at the FERMI Particle Accelerator unexpectedly discovered a fracture in time that made it possible to construct a portal into primeval history, the bold notion was born to resettle humanity in the past – a second chance to rebuild civilization and get it right this time.

The series centers on the Shannon family as they join the Tenth Pilgrimage of settlers to Terra Nova, the first colony established in this beautiful yet forbidding land. JIM SHANNON (Jason O’Mara), a devoted father with a checkered past, guides his family through this new world of limitless beauty, mystery and terror. Jim’s wife, ELISABETH SHANNON (Shelley Conn), is a trauma surgeon and the newest addition to TERRA NOVA’s medical team. JOSH SHANNON (Landon Liboiron) is their 17-year-old son who is angry to leave life as he knows it behind; upon arriving at the settlement, he finds himself instantly drawn to the beautiful and rule-breaking SKYE (Allison Miller). MADDY SHANNON (Naomi Scott), Josh’s endearingly awkward 15-year-old sister, hopes TERRA NOVA will give her a new chance to reinvent herself. Although Elisabeth’s medical training secured the family a spot on the pilgrimage, a secret involving their five-year-old daughter, ZOE (Alana Mansour), soon endangers their place in this utopia.

Upon the Shannon’s arrival, they are introduced to COMMANDER NATHANIEL TAYLOR (Stephen Lang), the charismatic and heroic first pioneer and leader of the settlement. Taylor, along with his right-hand man, GUZMAN (Mido Hamada), warn the travelers that while Terra Nova is a place of new opportunities and fresh beginnings, all is not as idyllic as it initially appears. Along with blue skies, towering waterfalls and lush vegetation, the surrounding terrain is teeming with danger – and not just of the man-eating dinosaur variety. There is also a splinter colony of renegades led by the battle-hardened MIRA (Christine Adams), who is vehemently opposed to Taylor and his leadership.

Even more threatening than what lies outside the protective walls of the colony is the chilling possibility that something sinister is happening inside Terra Nova. The Shannons will come to suspect that not everyone on this mission has the same idea of how to best save mankind; in fact, there may be forces intent on destroying this new world before it even begins.

TERRA NOVA is produced by 20th Century Fox Television, Chernin Entertainment DreamWorks Television and Kapital Entertainment. Steven Spielberg, Peter Chernin, Brannon Braga, René Echevarria, Jon Cassar, Aaron Kaplan, Katherine Pope, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank, Craig Silverstein and Kelly Marcel serve as executive producers. Alex Graves serves as executive producer and directed the series preview.

When the trailer first started I was like "Am I watching avatar again" then I realized this is an actually serious show and was like "eh, I'll give it 6 episodes".

What a dumb idea!!!!!!!! All of these people will go extinct when the dinosaurs get wiped out....they're all going to die with them.

You would think that the scientists, engineers, and thinkers who developed time travel in 2149 would have thought about going pack to a post-dinosaur earth!

Oh well, just another excuse to have animals killing people.

This looks terrible. Why would you take 2000 people to a time when dinosaurs ruled the world, and expect them to survive, let alone "reboot humanity".

The Back to the Future fan in me thinks that this doesn't make any sense because by altering the past, they're probably changing things significantly enough that they may never be born, meaning they could never go back in time creating a paradox that could destroy the entire space time continuum! Great Scott!

I actually think this might another be decent sci-fi show, save for the fuzzy logic. At least it's not another cop show...oh wait, FOX is pumping out one of those too.

The set up of the show is that a rift or portal to the past is found, and it leads 85 million years in the past. They're not choosing to go there, it's that era or nothing. So they go back and bring back all sorts of future technology designed to keep them alive in a hostile environment. And they've also got long-term plans to build what future generations may need to stay alive during global altering events.

I personally think it sounds intriguing.

I agree with you, though I've learned to be a bit cautious when it comes to FOX and sci-fi.

Then humans will contaminate the past with present day culture and then breed with dinosaurs.

That´ll explain the "Dinosaurs" sitcom. "Not the mama!".

If you wanted to make a new Jurassic Park, Spielberg, then why didn't you just make a new Jurassic Park? Why make a TV show that reflects all of the bad things happening in the mainstream media? I mean, come on! Really? Can you say crap? Because I can. CRAP!!! And I can also see it when I see it. This, my friends, is IT... CRAP... Complete and utter crap pouring out of the a**es of the fat cats in office. When will the little people matter? ...(cricket... cricket...) That's what I thought: NEVER!!! We are just dollar signs in their niave, ever-reflective eyes. I hate what Hollywood has become(especially when we've seen what it could be; a window to the impossibly awesome dreams of the masses). But no, let's continue to make crap that the little people will continue to eat, like lemmings to the sea!!! I know a lot of you will criticize what I am typing right now, but atleast I'm trying to synthesize somewhat of a voice here and say that THIS IS WRONG!!! Spielberg used to mean something, something good. What has happened to our world where a genius like him is, acceptably, able to make crap and millions at the same time. I HATE IT!!! Why do I even give you [frick]s the money that I work so hard for? Oh, that's right... I don't matter. You're already rich. Well, have fun, douchebags, I will no longer have any part in it. I am, as of now, hanging up my fan-cape. I have given up hope. I hope the rest of you fans find what you are looking for in these terds that you allow to be called entertaining. Signing out: MearlBrown1... GOODBYE, CBM.
