A new one from our friends at BBCAmerica. Once you get past the fact that all these things are happening in the UK (sh'yeah right, like the UK is the place for rips in the space/time continuum?) and everyone speaks with funny accents, its entertaining.

I've seen the first two episodes and I'm liking it. OK OK I've said that about Germicho look where that got me. Itunes had Episode 1 as a free download and I put it on my kid's Ipod and it has pulled us both in.

From the BBC America Website

When evolutionary zoologist Nick Cutter (Douglas Henshall) discovers prehistoric creatures alive and well in the present-day, the natural world is turned on its head, and humanity faces a threat to its very existence. Unexplained anomalies are ripping holes in the fabric of time, allowing creatures from the very earliest stages of Earth's development to roam the modern world.

Episode 1 had dinosaurs and episode 2 had huge venomous spiders and millipedes from the past. Plus there's the whole "Where's Cutter's wife" storyline going on also.

Preview for the 3rd episode this Saturday at 9 pm.

"The arrival of a vicious sea creature (a Mosasaur) at a local swimming pool means bad news all around, particularly for a pair of young lifeguards flouting the heavy-petting ban. The young man becomes the Mosasaur's next meal while his girlfriend is charged with his murder. When the boy's regurgitated body is found in a nearby reservoir, Cutter realizes they've got another prehistoric killer on their hands."

C'mon Fooner...Can I get you sucked into this one?

Gee, we can't get this wonderful show *sobs uncontrollably*, so it appears I can't
"Sing Along with Mitch" (that's your real name, isn't it, bystander?).

Now, inquiring minds want to know, does this Moses-saur beat his victims to death with stone tablets? According to the synopsis it is evident he has a terrible gastointestinal problem, and cannot digest boys. Why bother?


And whatever happened to the locusts and honey?

You're actually missing a good one! I like this show. Something new to deal with each week. My kids are even watching it. Family entertainment at its best.

Too much smog out there. It's affecting your memory.
