I watched Primeval.

As the title says.

I actually *facepalm*ed about five times.

It wasn't quite as blatantly rippy-offy of Torchwood and Doctor Who as I'd expected. They threw some Stargate in too.

But... so much of it... I just sat there going, "Y'wha? Oke, you stoopid, archaeology man."

Ahem. Though it amused me that Cutter's skeleton-identifying skills are better than Owen's. Excuse me while I go snigger about that somewhere.

But I wasn't mightily impressed. Could have been better, could have been worse. I'll probably watch the next episode and see if it now trips itself up utterly and falls flat on its plagiarising little face.

Ooh, that was a bit harsh. Maybe.

Shall do. ^_^ The basic premise (a rift in space-time in the middle of a city, dumping monsters (dinosaurs) randomnly into modern times? Doesn't sound remotely familiar, huh?) has to be a rip-off. But they have tried to be slightly different.

Although they've gone to Jurassic Park instead. *rolls eyes*
