I might check it out eventually. I enjoyed the first two episodes but I got busy and didn't watch the rest. I just don't want to watch it, like it, and know there isn't more left.

There is no hard SciFi left to watch. I am happy to hear that at least Falling Skies was renewed for a second season.

SGA had five seasons, SGU had two (ridiculous), Terra Nova had one. Chances are not being given for shows which might have had a glorious future a decade ago. The first season of SG-1 wasn't particularly intelligent, either. On the other hand shows like Heroes (which had a great first season, get three(!) more seasons, each of which turned increasingly more retarded.

I don't care how ****ty a show is, there will be a bunch of people who watch it and like it anyway (and they seem to be the most vocal ones on the net).
Quite a few good shows took a season or so to actually become good. If you are paying people next to nothing to make a show you can limp for a year and see how it goes. If you are paying a mint for CGA and/or actors the show better be good pretty fast or the plug is pulled. The bottom line is are the networks making money or not.

Terra Nova has ****ty characters, and a ****ty plot. It was far from inspiring. In fact i'd say it was the opposite of inspiring. if they wanted to make it inspiring, they would have explored the world of 85 million years ago, and attempted to make mankind triumph in this vast wilderness.
instead, they gave is typical cut characters with typical whiny problems. it wasn't inspiring because everyone's seen it before.
You can't count shows on channels like Sci-Fi because you can't count on people having cable, or thinking/knowing to watch there.
Eureka has had a good run. Sure I'd love for it to continue a lot longer, but I'd say that Eureka was "inspiring" & fun during its run. the new BSG the same. They lasted for as long as they did because they were well done, and even on a sideline network, were about to pull enough weight.
Plain and simple, what it comes down to is that Terra Nova was mishandled by FOX, who changed the layout and premise of the show, and made it into the garbage it turned out to be.
The end.

Unfortunately I saw this coming. I wasn't overly impressed with the show it was predictable and a bit trite IMO. Everything back in a nice little box with a bow by the end of the ep... and the cutesy family bugged me. It wasn't dark or edgy enough for today's viewers IMO...it was a disappointment...cuz it could've been so much more.Originally posted by jelgateThis brings much pain but SQ is right

Crappy programming may be the norm due to America's viewing habits today but that doesn't mean channels should have to go to their level to get viewers; for shame...Back from the grave.
