When Doctor Who returned in a blaze of ratings and critical glory a couple of years ago, it set off a race to find the next big British genre series to help capitalize on that success. We've had some winners come out of that race (Being Human, Torchwood: Children of Earth) and we've had some disappointments come out of that race (any season of Torchwood that isn't Children of Earth).
Somewhere in the lower to middle half of that is Primeval, as series that isn't quite as frustrating as Torchwood but one that rarely hits the creative peaks that Doctor Who or Being Human does.
