I hope you brought me back a souvenir. - Primeval 4x01 and 4x02 Reviews

Primeval is back! And it's as awesome as ever!

 I loved the scenes with Connor and Abby in the Cretaceous. Seeing them fighting for their lives, keeping each other sane and alive... Abby teaching Connor how to fight. And I very much love the Cretaceous look - dirty clothes, messy hair, and so on - especially on Connor. Damn Andrew just looks very hot and badass in that outfit. 

 It's just sad that Danny didn't make it back to the present with them. I really liked him. And the poor guy is now stuck somewhere else, all alone. 

 I'm glad that Lester and Becker are still on the A.R.C. team. (How did Sarah die, by the way?) I always loved Lester, Ben Miller is just brilliant. And Becker keeps on growing on me - besides, Ben Mansfield is really hot (I only noticed this last night). 

 Highlights: Abby/Becker/Connor hug ("I hope you brought me back a souvenir.") and later on the Abby/Lester hug. So he does care for them after all (not that I ever doubted that). 

 I already love Jess, the new girl on the team. Looks like she's Connor's replacement, she seems to be really good with computers and stuff. And she's terribly cute. Female geekiness, I approve. 

 Matt... is he supposed to replace Danny? I don't like him. I don't trust him either. Who's the old guy he's always running to? 

 And is Philipp Burton, that famous scientist guy Lester's boss now? I don't like him either. He's almost as bad as that Christine Johnson woman last season. 

 But, really, guys, how cute was the ending of the episode? Half-naked Connor between white bedsheets, and then still half-naked (no, that's not important at all) Connor and Abby being all cutesy on the balcony, watching the sun rise? It's great to see them as a proper couple now, finally. 
Connor: Are you keeping watch? 
Abby: It still feels as though one of us has to keep guard. 
Connor: Yeah. Why don’t I take the next shift? Get some rest. 
Abby: I’m happy here with you. 


 Second episode was great as well. I loved how Connor, after becoming jobless goes to investigate on his own. I loved even more that Jess probably knew what he was up to and still told him he could use the computer at her place. (How awesome is that flat? - made me love her even more)

 It was also great to see Duncan again. And to see that Connor's geeky side is still there. I like badass Connor, but I also always loved the nerd from series 1, so it's great to have a combination of both. 

 I still don't like and don't trust Matt. When will Danny come back? 

 And Jess has a crush on Becker, how cute is that? And he brought her back chocolate (the chocolate that she requested from Matt when he followed Abby to the docks - bad bad guy - and he forgot - even worse) and even remembered that she doesn't like chocolate with oranges in it - he so does like her too!!! 

 Highlight: Connor/Becker high-five :) 

 I also very much adored the ending: Jess, Connor and Abby being roommates now. How awesome is that? (I wanna move in with them, too) Can't wait for next weekend.


Here, have a little video of yummy Ben Mansfield:


  He called Andrew "Pottsy". I died of cute.
