((Including arguing with the tv that until you are NOT being chased by the two story tall carnivore, the EXACT species is probably a point of discussion that can wait till later. Especially if you don't know enough about dinosaurs for pinning down the species to be in any way relevant to not being eaten by said dinosaur. Otherwise you're kinda debating the trivia of whether or not it's a Siberan or a Bengal tiger gnawing on your shin bones. <br /><br /> On the other hand, I think I'd rather sit through Terra Nova (and eyeroll at the shallow tropey characters) than EVER sit through something like Desperate Housewives.Nightgaunthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05280124926584473312noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2695225246655247904.post-1495485616630379492011-11-01T11:53:59.374+00:002011-11-01T11:53:59.374+00:00I heard rumblings that this show was horrible, so ...I heard rumblings that this show was horrible, so I never watched it. Sad though, cause I'd like to see some more Sci-Fi on the air. Have you watched American Horror Story or do you get it there? It has some redeeming value - creep-factor mainly. It isn't a terribly well plotted out show, I'll admit that, but if you want something unusual and a bit unsettling, it does a decent job. I miss X Files.Lindsay N.
