About Terra Nova

Terra Nova is a Fox science fiction adventure from 2011, executive produced by Steven Spielberg, that ran 13 episodes from September to December. The Shannon family flees a dying 2149 Earth through a time fracture to a Cretaceous colony called Terra Nova. Each episode pairs dinosaur threats with colony politics as Commander Taylor guards the settlement's secrets.

The season builds from arrival and portal rules through Carnotaurus attacks and Sixer rebels toward the fracture truth in the finale. Release order is the viewing order since colony lore stacks week to week. Watch episodes 1 through 13 in sequence for the complete single season run.

Good to know

Watch episodes 1 through 13 in air order, since colony secrets and Sixer plots build toward the finale reveal. The two hour premiere counts as the opening setup, so start there rather than skipping ahead. Dinosaur encounters escalate across the run, making order matter for scale payoff. One 13 episode season in sequence is the complete Terra Nova story after its cancellation.
