After too many irritating delays, Terra Nova premieres this coming Monday at 8/7c on Fox. Finally! Although they didn’t follow the lead of shows like New Girl and The Secret Circle by loading their first hour on iTunes for a free preview, here’s the next best thing: five key scenes from the premiere.

Don’t worry; as trailers go these aren’t TOO spoilery (though of course they are, a bit):

We’ve seen the first hour, we like it, and are really looking forward to hour 2, which fortunately is airing right after hour 1 on Monday. Now THAT’s the kind of wait we appreciate!

Terra Nova, starring Jason O’Mara, Shelley Conn, Stephen Lang, and Landon Liboiron, premieres Monday, September 26 at 8/7c on Fox.
