Is anybody tuning in out of curiosity? Is anybody eagerly anticipating its premiere tonight? Will this show be more like Jurassic Park Or Land Of The Lost?!?

it is too busy a nite for us; if they repeat it on Saturdays or make it available on demand we might check it out.

Same here Rob, I am a bit curious, but certainly not excited for it.

Yes, I watched the two-hour pilot. I thought it was pretty good. I like the characters, and the plot held my interest. The CG dinosaurs were convincing, albeit on a TV budget (you'd expect no less from Steven Spielberg). The problem is those far-out concepts are always a crapshoot; sometimes they work, sometimes they don't. I hope it's a hit. We'll have to wait and see.

Wow! A rip in the time-space continuum and a one way portal! It was so much better than I was expecting. I was really surprised at how much I enjoyed it and i am now excited and looking forward to the series. I thought the CG dinosaurs were VERY convincing in HD and on a big screen...almost felt like I was watching a theatrical movie...intense action with the Slashers. I found myself on the edge of my seat a few times during the airing...lots of suspense and unanswered questions. When the show first started I honestly wasn't expecting too much from it and was prepared for the worst, but was pleasantly surprised. Sure there were a few (why would they be stupid enough to do that?) moments....but over-all the episode was very well done. The characters are likeable and the plot lines show promise. Just hope they don't make it into a "save us from the dinosaurs" episode each and every week.
The visuals with the CG effects were stunning, even breathtaking on the wide screen. Good show! Thought it was alot of fun, action and adventure. Definitely looking forward to future episodes.

I would LOVE to see this show on a big screen (if I could afford one)!
