Quite good

It is quite a unique approach - trying to convert Jurassic Park into a pseudo-documentary, and on the whole it does work quite well.

For a start, more animals are "met", than in the aforementioned film, and whilst that had multi-million dollar special effects, the ones in this series are still pretty good.

Whilst it can be slow at times, and some of the dialog can be a bit stilted and a bit cheesy, Nigel does make the program interesting and describes the animals in an interesting way.

I do have some technical problems with it though, mainly : They assume that the vegetation that we have now would be suitable. It also seems they wont have enough for all the animals (from the ground views that we've had).

The pens are made out of wood - and don't look terribly strong either. After all, if a T-Rex can cause havoc with metallic cages, what would 2 T-Rex's do with wooden pens ? Perhaps in the last episode, everyone & everything gets eaten :) Nigel doesn't have any weapons, which is a bit stupid...

Who owns the park, and where does the money come from - there are no visitors... Perhaps its InGen ?!
