The year's most anticipated new TV show, Terra Nova produced by Steven Spielberg and filmed in Australia about a future family who travels back in time to prehistoric times, will no longer start on 23 May since the production needs more time for the special effects show.
The big-budget prehistoric adventure show would have started with a ''preview'' of the first two episodes on 23 May and then the regular rest of the first full season later in the year in America. That plan has now been scrapped by the American Fox network which will also impact all of the broadcasters around the world who have already signed broadcasting rights for the highly anticipated show or are very interested in it.
Terra Nova's production team says it needs more time to work on the show's elaborate visual effects and that the episodes won't be ready by May. '' Terra Nova is one of the most ambitious television series ever produced,'' says Fox's entertainment president Kevin Reilly in a press statement. ''The cutting-edge visual effects used to create the world of Terra Nova, which is of massive scope and scale, require more time to be realized. This aspect of the series is essential, so we are pushing back the special early preview date to give the visual effects team the time needed for their ground-breaking work.''
