Something to look forward to in May. Fox is starting a show called Terra Nova.

I first heard about the show a few months back from my husband on Tor.com and it sounds interesting. The basic premise is that a group of people from the future who (once the Earth is completley used up) travel back 85 million years to the Cretaceous Period to recolonize the Earth and start over. Now why this is not the Jurassic Period with all the creatures a brief google search of the Cretaceous Period show that there were Dinosaur like creatures still running around which should make the show more interesting. However, one point I would like to contend is that at 65.5 million years ago there was a substantial extinction event. So I am not sure in the show if they have a choice as to what time period they are going to or if there is some sort of fixed phenomena that makes that the only place to go...... so we will have to see what happens with that. And if you watch the trailer the older guy is the bad guy from Avatar so we will see if they are playing off of that character again. But if you are like me and grew up with the Jurassic Park series then you may welcome a new Dinosaur fix in your viewing schedule. So for now I will say that the show looks interesting and has potential so stay tuned for more info :)
