What Will Make 'Terra Nova' Awesome?


A massive review of Terra Nova's third episode raises some questions. What will make the show great?

The reviewer suggests characterization and the focusing on the premise set up in the pilot (political instability, group conflict, etc.).

Sadly, that reviewer is wrong.

Characterization is great. I would like more, but that misses the main problem. Delving into group or interpersonal conflicts is the biggest mistake the producers could make.

What then?

Adventure. Yes, let me say it again, ADVENTURE.

Dinosaurs. Guns. Survival. Rescues. Quests. Searches. Races. Adventure is where Terra Nova will find it's greatness.
