Soap opera in the past, with dinosaurs. I don't understand why they canceled it.
Anything like Land of the Lost? It had it all.

No, it doesn't have fantasy elements. It's simply a (at times very shlockishly written, but enjoyable) drama series set mostly in the Cretaceous. The premise is that humanity has done fucked up earth for good this time, and some kind of LHC gejiggermachine creates a wormhole into Dinosaur age (in an alternative timeline I suppose) -- which is when the gov'ment decides to have a settlement there to let humanity have a fresh start. If they had tried a bit harder to write compelling stories, it could have gone places instead of being cancelled after one season ... I mean, it's every Dinosaur loving Scifi fan's wet dream. Spielberg was involved, but also Brannon F. Braga, I guess the latter cancelled out the former.

Primeval (British original) remains the best tunneling to the Dinosaur age series, although it also has severe inconsistencies and weaknesses (such as the most tedious myth arcs)

and because it's British, it's also funny:
