Radically-changed circumstances, realignment of loyalties, new "mystery" (well, I have to put it in quotes--does anybody here not anticipate what they'll find in the "bad lands"? Geez, it's a time travel story, three guesses where that ship's prow came from.)

And yet, as has happened all too many times, especially at Fox, the series is officially being considered for cancellation, and the oddsmakers call it a toss-up. They wouldn't be the first series cancelled on the eve of it finally coming together. Especially at Fox.

With the first season in the can, I have 78.7 gigabytes of Terra Nova DVR'd from the local Fox station (back in the analog days, that would be a pathetic statement. In the HDTV era, it means I have a very high-quality high-bandwidth 720p stream...primo stuff, better than if I'd downloaded from Amazon). Without a second season it's junk and I'll erase it. But with the twisty premise for a second season, if it's produced it might be worth keeping.

We called it pretty good, months ago, didn't we Frank?
