(CBS) Last week we plowed through most of the new shows hitting television. This week there are three, starting with the two-hour “Terra Nova” premiere on Fox.

If you haven’t seen the gargantuan trailers floating around the Interwebs, the show stars “Avatar” bad guy Stephen Lang and Jim O’Mara. One of the many executive producers is Steven Spielberg, which makes sense because this is a dinosaur-heavy tale.

Short version: In 2149, Earth is less and less inhabitable. Via time travel, humans are being transported back 85 million years to an unspoiled planet. Expect special effects and…dinosaurs.

Other shows debuting this week are “Hart of Dixie” on Monday, starring Rachel Bilson as a yankee doctor who takes a job south of the Mason-Dixon; “Suburgatory,” a single-camera comedy starring Jeremy Sisto and airing on Wednesday; and “How to be a Gentleman,” starring David Hornsby and the erstwhile Johnny Drama, Kevin Dillon.
