This is the kind of hate post I can get behind.


The Terra Nova comment is an inside joke for LONG time board members. I had a weekly hate thread on Terra Nova as it aired.

I enjoyed the show for what it was.

My wife and I are enjoying it enough, but it was definitely a bunch of "ok now who is this" to start.

It was terrible. Plain and simple. The wall with HUGE gaps that mid sized meat eaters could easily get through and kill everyone. The motorcycle rides in at night in the jungle like there were roads. It was terrible. By episode 7 almost everyone on the movie board had stopped watching it.

Finally started it. Looking pretty good. Far superior to that rings of power crap, on many fronts.

* I am a bit confused at the backstory of the Atlanteans . The cut scene made it seem like it was only 22 years after the fall of Atlantis instead of 22 years after the scene of the baby being pulled from the river.

So basically, the race of Atlanteans is somewhere between elves and Numenorians .

And they just rolled up to Britain, like it was Middle Earth or something and established Gondor with nobody noticing?

But the first two episodes are totally disjointed and incomprehensible. Not even a shred of exposition explaining for even a second what the hell is going on and who any of these people are. Just all over the place. I rarely give up on shows and I like Arthurian stuff, but this is truly hard to watch


Just finished the third episode now think I’m going to need a primer to explain just what the hell is going on.

The Atlantis survivors found themselves in England and existed for how many hundreds (thousands) of years? This is a civilization which predates Rome and possibly exceeded them in technology, but somehow escaped discovery?

I’m no Arthurian expert, but they really are weighing down too much of the story with this Atlantis crap.
