I'm going to be realistic here; when I turned on the television to watch Terra Nova on September 26, I honestly did not think I would like it. After all, science fiction is just not my favorite genre by a long shot. But Terra Nova features one of my favorite actors, so I decided to tune in out of loyalty.
I was pleasantly surprised.
Terra Nova, the tale of a group of people who travel 85 million years back in time to save humanity, has something for everyone. It has astounding special effects and first-rate gadgets for the science fiction fans out there, and dinosaurs out the wazoo for lovers of all things prehistoric. But if you took out the special effects and dinosaurs, Terra Nova still has all the makings of a hit TV show. It features romance, drama, and witty one-liners you'll find yourself quoting days after an episode airs.
It also features an entertaining cast of characters portrayed by several talented actors: police officer-turned-security officer Jim Shannon (Jason O'Mara); his doctor wife Elisabeth (Shelley Conn); their children, Josh, Maddie, and Zoe (Landon Liboiron, Naomi Scott, and the painfully adorable Alana Mansour, respectively); Skye (Allison Miller), an orphaned resident and possible love interest to Josh; and tough-as-nails Commander Taylor (the ever-fabulous Stephen Lang).
Even if you think you won't like Terra Nova, just tune in on FX one Monday evening at 9 p.m. It just might turn out to be your new obsession.

Short Review: Stephen Lang. Nuff said.
I did this review for journalism and the teacher actually read it out loud to the class and then put it on the blog and told people to read it over the announcements.
