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.

It was a little better than I expected. :) And if it can settle down and be sensible, and not have Hunter-man bashing dinosaurs with a jeep and jumping out unscathed every week, it might be reasonably okay.

I'll watch it for a bit and see how it goes. And Rex was kinda cute...
