"DAMN these pheremone molecules are unstable!"
If this show survives, I hope they hire some Eureka writers. They need them. Badly.
Well, look at you. All dressed up in big sister's clothes.

Boxed Set, Vol. V: Just a Hint of Denial and a Dash of Retcon
A topic for the discussion of Doctor Who, Arrow, and The Flash. Beware possible invasions of iZombie, Sleepy Hollow, or pretty much any other "genre" (read: sci fi, superhero, or fantasy) show that captures our fancy. Expect adult content and discussion of the Big Gay Sex.
Marvel superheroes are discussed over at the MCU thread.
Whitefont all unaired in the U.S. ep discussion, identifying it as such, and including the show and ep title in blackfont.
Blackfont is allowed after the show has aired on the east coast.
This is NOT a general TV discussion thread.

Matt,
that's a good thought.
Are you going to tell me there is nothing else in that fucking warehouse that could have taken out that bomb?

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Apparently someone asked Eddie on Twitter:
"Question: "Why didn't H.G. just put the shield around the bomb?" Answer: "Because it wasn't in the script." xox

Terra Nova:
The "moss on the north side of the trees" bit made me grind my teeth.
Oh God, that made me do the same thing. Not just because it's stupid in and of itself, but so indicative of "they just don't care" on the part of the writers and producers, that they couldn't be bothered to research even a tiny bit about wilderness survival.
BTW, their characters are in a fracking jungle, which is going to have a whole 'nother set of survival rules that you could exploit for story potential.

"And to be clear, I am the hell. And the high water."
I guarantee that if I were in a real life version of Terra Nova, I would be dead within 7 days due to an insect bite.
Have insects or smaller creatures come up as a possible hazard?

So ... having set up their little walled settlement on the hatching grounds, does this mean they're literally walking on eggshells?

I know the paleontologists used to think that dinosaur eggs were leathery... but as you said.
I suspect we'll see a story where one of the kids hides a dinosaur egg and hijinks ensue.
