Terra Nova breaks new ground

Terra Nova
Terra Nova ... over produced?

How many executive producers does it take to make a drama? Well, if it's new Steven Spielberg sci-fi epic Terra Nova, it's 12. Yep, that's right. The exec producer credits are almost longer than the cast list. The full lineup is – take deep breath – Spielberg, Peter Chernin, Brannon Braga, René Echevarria, Jon Cassar, Aaron Kaplan, Katherine Pope, Justin Falvey, Darryl Frank, Craig Silverstein and Alex Graves. Phew, Monkey needs a lie down. It's bad news for awards producers. If Terra Nova picks up gongs next awards season, stages are going to have to be reinforced just to accommodate the exec producers.
