These are good times for sci-fi fans. With the knowledge of our universe expanding and time and space showing an elasticity that, in the past, we could only barely have dreamed, the imaginations of today’s sci-fi writers are fertile with theoretical possibility — regardless of plausibility, of course. Fans of Primeval will get a rich sampling of those possibilities when the series returns to BBC America for Season 5 this Saturday, Nov. 12.

The opening of Primeval‘s new season finds the rips in time — anomalies — opening up across the UK with greater frequency and with further-reaching consequences, allowing ever-more dangerous creatures from the past and the future to mingle in time, and putting all of humanity at risk.

1. Sounds interesting

I've never heard of it but found it on Netflix and just added it to my INstant Queue. I like a good Sci-Fi show.

2. crap! this has been on for 4 years already? eom

[left is right]

3. yes, 4 seasons but

remember that BBC shows’s seasons are mostly 8-13 weeks. If you can find a source it will be easy to catch up

4. They've been doing a marathon of past episodes, the new one isn't marked as "new" on the DVR

The season premiere isn't listed as "New" on the DVR,
so I wasn't sure if this was really the new season or not,
and had to look it up.

It also makes it harder to program the DVR,
you can't just tell it to record new episodes only.

5. My DirecTv DVR let's me pick "First Run" or all

I think the plot is making an interesting twist.

6. Abbie's hair reminded me of the old tv show "UFO"

except she didn't have a purple anti-static hair-net on.

9. The other bits of her

remind me of somebody too. :rofl:

7. On Time-Warner, it doesn't show up as "New"

so there's no way to know whether an episode is a re-run or new.
This episode was great!

8. This is the last season

i.e the end. We had it in the UK earlier this year.

Its good.

:hi:

edit to add : just checked and they might make another season in 2013. :shrug:
