The writing is terrible. What purpose does the subplot involving the youngest daughter playing Commander Taylor in the school play serve? None whatsoever. This is the problem with the show. It's boring.
The real story would be the first pilgrimage. How Taylor tamed the area. That's the excitement. That's where the drama is.
In this episode, we find a corpse. Taylor has killed his mentor. This guy came to Terra Nova to takeover command. Again, this is a prime source for drama. What the writers give us though is Taylor draws his gun and shoots the guy dead. That's it. Done. End of conflict.
That's how they've resolved the majority of problems that have cropped up in the show. A quick ending that doesn't contain any imagination nor creativity.
The show is actually getting worse each week.
