Terra Nova is an American science fiction drama television series that is scheduled to air on Fox in 2011 as a fall series, executive produced by Steven Spielberg and showrunner Brannon Braga, among others.
PLOT: The show begins in the year 2149, a time when all life on planet Earth is threatened with extinction. In an effort to save the human race, scientists develop a portal allowing travel 85 million years back in time to prehistoric Earth. The Shannon family (father Jim, his wife Elisabeth, and their three children Josh, Maddy and Zoe) join the tenth pilgrimage of settlers to Terra Nova, the first human colony on the other side of the temporal doorway. However, they are unaware that the colony is in the middle of a group of carnivorous dinosaurs.
The two-hour premiere episode required more than 250 sets, reportedly costing $16 million, with some of the sets to reused over the course of the season.
