Yeah me too. Honestly I didn't like it too much, like Crichton already had the idea to make Jurassic Park, or maybe conceived of the story when durecting Westworld ("but what if it was DINOSAUR PARK instead of ol timey western") but maybe realized that it would've been silly men in Dinosuits, and waited until he was confident that special effects caught up with his brilliant mind, but then again I hadn't considered the timeline between the two. Speaking of "Timeline.." uh let's not actually.

The dialogue is definitely heavy-handed, but it still manages to work. You get some pretty clear foreshadowing in episode one, and it still manages to draw your interest. Mine, anyways.
