M-Net Snags World’s Most Expensive TV Series Ever: Terra Nova [VIDEO]

M-Net announced yesterday that it has secured the broadcast rights to the most expensive TV series ever made: Steven Spielberg’s “Terra Nova”. And it looks like we won’t be too far behind the US in seeing it.

According to sources, M-Net went out “guns blazing” to get hold of the rights to broadcast one of the years most highly anticipated new shows.

Terra Nova follows the lives of the Shannon family who travel back in time 85 million years from the year 2149, where the Earth is dying due to pollution and overpopulation. The family’s mission is to restart civilisation and create a colony called “Terra Nova”. But things go terribly wrong and they are trapped “in this land of limitless beauty, mystery and terror”.

The show was supposed to air in the US in May, but producers have asked for more time to work on the show that will now air at the end of the year, and early in 2012 over here.
