Terra Nova















~ We all have a chance, We all have a choice, We just are too tired & too coward to take it. Because it’s not something to happen in a blink of an eye and most of the time we ‘Loose Faith’, ‘Loose Hope’ & eventually ‘Loose Ourselves’. ~

The new T.V. Series that has hit the T.V. screens Created By Kelly Marcel & Craig Silverstein, Presented Along By Steven Spielberg And Many Others.

The Show starts in the future dated 2149, though it carries some really advanced technology, The real focus is on how our earth has turned into a destroyed planet where even breathing the air around us could kill us.


It’s All dark nothing Blue, Green Or White can be seen everything around is Brown & Black. Everyone has to wear this pollution free mask to go out in the open air (And not many can afford it). To control the consumption of the left out air there are these population control patrol, where they take in count of every single person in a family and only a no. of people are allowed in a family or they are trying to stop from any more increase in the population, have to wait and see what exactly they are portraying if just come across the firs episode which is been divided into 2 parts, Genesis 1 & Genesis 2.  


To the turn of events the scientists discover a rift in space-time that allows people to travel 85 million years back in time to the late Cretaceous period of a prehistoric Earth where Dinosaurs lived and to man known knowledge is when it all started, but in an alternative timeline (thus avoiding paradoxes caused by reverse-flow time travel), offering a chance to save humanity, To try and restart again this time in the right way.

Although the story carries such a huge package it all starts & revolves around one The Shannon Family - father Jim, his wife Elisabeth, and their three children Josh, Maddy, and Zoe. The father Jim was a cop before he got arrested for having a 3rd child and the other reason being that he interfered the search of his house when the cop’s came t know that the family were having a 3rd child, the cops comes in and tears the their small home apart at last finding the child hiding in the air vent, seeing this Jim steps in and shouts to leaver her kid alone and throws a punch at the cop, thus landing him in prison.

The real story starts though after two years, the Mother Elisabeth comes to know they have been chosen to go to Terra Nova as she’s a doctor and could be a great help but the rule they broke of having a 3rd child stays as she has to leave the third child behind, it’s either that or no one goes at all. Once you’ve gone through the portal there’s no coming back, Out of desperation she plans out a break out for her husband and lay out a perfect plan hoping that he would escape. ‘watch the show for more on that’.

Now to the more interesting part (as for me) the claim here is Human’s have not handled their chance given wisely or correctly, so their plan and only other way out is to go back everything started for the mankind.

There are certain pointers I’d like to point:

  1. Time Portal: They never showed how they arrived with the process; one needs some solid evidence to be able to go into 85 Billion years back. They just can’t say and play a time portal and get on with it. It should be a little more precise. (if this was 10 years back I would have gone with it).
  2. When they go back into 85 Billion years where it is believed with a mere proof, the Dinosaurs period, those where the times the Mankind started and as we know it was also the most hostile time for mankind. So to be able to portrait that should be tricky & interesting.
  3. This could be a real head turner if they can bring out a right sketch on how Man appeared, if they fail to do that, than I’m afraid it would be another show with a twist and in my case it would be very disappointing. Cause I’m hoping they do more than just that.                                                                                                                        

“It’s Not about Doing Justice to a Random Story; It’s about Doing Justice to Our Story, Real Story’

  1. Time portal, Time travelling all this could be very tricky you never know what’s in store for us while you are playing with your Past, Present, & the Future. I’m really looking forward to on what they have to say on every history we ever crossed and where this story is gonna take us. What route if we had taken we could have prolonged even longer and better.

“Change Shouldn’t Be Forced Or Made Because Of Something, It Should Be Profound. That’s The Only Way You’ll Know That You Wont Go Back To Your Old State.”

  1. Thinking about coming face to face with a stone age man, I’mean if that’s the case here or they are trying a totally different approach, You know I’m not 100% fully down when it comes to taking on something that has been already done, like a new version of an old movie, it will be interesting in fresh colors but what’s the point & fun. But in this case they are going so much back in time not many new even existed. So it would be very interesting to see those “facts about our past” in action.
  2. The first episode has been divided into Genesis 1 & Genesis 2. You know as a fan and a critic they did not completely sell the concept to me, having said that it’s not an easy thing to do with so much to tell in so little time but that’s the whole point of T.V series, you can prolong or shorten it as much as you like the restrictions are limited compared to movies but the challenges are equally and at times more in T.V shows.
  3. The biggest reason I’m looking forward in this series is how truly Mankind will act if they are given a second chance based on our growth up until now.

With high hopes and long reasons, I wish all the very best for their success & I hope they do justice to our Humanity.

Take Care,
