Terra Nova The Complete Series
SCORE: 70
I received Terra Nova The Complete Series as a birthday gift. My mother had told me about this show so I was curious to see it. It starts in the future - 2149. Earth has been depleted of its resources. Humanity is on the brink of extinction. The only hope is to time travel back to the time of dinosaurs. Yeah I know its a bit of the liberal doom and gloom. One of their: “I told you so,” fantasies.
This family is separated because they had a third child. The law of the land is only two kids per couple. The husband gets thrown in jail. They break him out, and travel back in time as a family. They get a chance to start over and finally be together. This is the part of the show I love.
Terra Nova The Complete Series is intelligent by showing humans bring back all of the same issues and problems we currently have. Various characters break parts of the Ten Commandments in multiple episodes. There are two groups in the past. The main Terra Nova colony and the Sixers. The Sixers are plants from the sixth pilgrimage to try and overthrow the leader Commander Taylor.
The characters in Terra Nova The Complete Series come across a variety of issues and problems in the thirteen episodes. The worst is the commanders son (Lucas) who is a genius. Lucas is on a quest to make the time portal go both ways. That way capitalists from the future can strip mine the past.
There is lying,
stealing, cheating, deceiving, violence, gore, and bad language in Terra
Nova The Complete Series. This is not a show for kids. The theme of
family and fighting for it is the shows redeeming grace.
