Terra Nova #4 Officieel gecancelled!

TERRA NOVA follows an ordinary family embarking on an incredible journey back in time to prehistoric Earth as a small part of a massive experiment to save the human race.
In the year 2149 the world is dying. The planet is overdeveloped, overcrowded and overpolluted. With the majority of plant and animal life extinct, devotion to science has brought mankind to the brink of destruction, but has also provided its only hope for salvation. Knowing there is no way to reverse the damage to the planet, a coalition of scientists has managed to open up a fracture in the space-time continuum, creating a portal to prehistoric Earth.

Production
The series is based on an idea by British writer Kelly Marcel. Alex Graves signed on to direct the pilot. Brannon Braga serves as showrunner.
The two-hour pilot was filmed in Australia over 26 days in late November to December 2010. The shoot was plagued by torrential rain and additional material had to be shot in 2011, with a total estimated cost between $10 to $20 million to be amortized over the season.
More than 250 sets were constructed. An episode takes eight to nine days to shoot, like most television dramas, but six weeks in post-production, twice the television average.
The average episode budget is about $4 million. Fox Entertainment president Kevin Reilly stated, "This thing is going to be huge. It's going to take an enormous production commitment."

Ratings
After numerous production delays, an initial investment of tens of millions of dollars and a relentless marketing campaign, Fox's prehistoric drama debuted Monday to an audience that were dino-lite.
Per preliminary Nielsen data from Fox, the two-hour drama for the family drama averaged 9 million viewers and a 3.0 rating with chompers under 50.
On the positive tip, that's about double what Fox drew with the nearly as hyped (albeit far less expensive) Lone Star, which debuted (and died) on Monday night a year ago this month.
Compared to expectations, the number, has to be considered a disappointment: ABC's Revenge and Pan Am, along with CBS's Person of Interest, all earned higher premiere week ratings among new dramas. bron



Deel 1: Terra Nova = Jurassic Park als TV-serie
Deel 2: Terra Nova #2 Dawson's Creek mét Dino's!
Deel 3: Terra Nova #3 Waar de serie steeds beter wordt!

De grote vraag blijft vooralsnog of er een 2e seizoen gaat komen
