Overview
From executive producers Steven Spielberg Peter Chernin, René Echevarria and Brannon Braga comes an epic family adventure 85 million years in the making. Terra Nova follows an ordinary family on an incredible journey back in time to prehistoric Earth as a small part of a daring experiment to save the human race. In the year 2149, the world is dying. The planet is overdeveloped and overcrowded, with the majority of plant and animal life extinct. The future of mankind is in jeopardy, and its only hope for survival is in the distant past. When scientists at the FERMI Particle Accelerator unexpectedly discovered a fracture in time that made it possible to construct a portal into primeval history, the bold notion was born to resettle humanity in the past - a second chance to rebuild civilization and get it right this time.

I would like to write about one moment: when this family had already got to TN, the local commander asked GG why they had given birth to their 3rd child. And he replied, "We decided it was worth it.".. And that makes me really sick. What's "that"? Is giving birth to another child in a dying world where raising the first two is torture? Of course, this series was not mentioned, but obviously, since the child is illegitimate, this birth was without medical help, no registration (as a citizen) for 6-7 years to live in fear that the child will not be able to sit out the check quietly (and he could not), etc. So why "that" I ask again? And after that, they will tell us again how terrible the world of the future is, dictatorships, immoral laws and lawyers. The scriptwriters apparently made an effort to show us a creepy world where they put people in a tiny cell for 6 years for fighting. But didn't they deserve it? Break the law necessary to curb overpopulation and conserve oxygen for the sake of an unreasonable whim?
So in light of all this, GG only disgusts me, and if the series hadn't had 13 episodes, I wouldn't have watched it, because I wouldn't have had the strength to ignore such idiocy any longer...
P.S. their eldest son is a typical (favorite cliche of screenwriters) American teenager who is typically against He's rude to his parents, he goes everywhere, just against everyone - he's just sick of it, but he's so stupid, obviously, like his parents.
