The most memorable episode for me was when Baby got sick and while the doctors kept pushing newer and newer drugs, the microbes just enjoyed each like a party cocktail. It was the mother-in-law who had been suggesting an old wives' tale remedy of moldy bread that actually worked. Later in life, I would realize that this was a reference to penicillin.

@C-AntiquusUn 7 месяцев назад

my most memorable one is where they have a civil war between the two legged dinos and the four legged dinos and when robbie gets drafted he asks why they arent using guns and is told because they havent been invented, that one the one where earl sells his soul for a mug with the face of some dino with a captains hat and a pipe i think its supposed to be a parody of the honeymooners character and baby tries to swipe it mission impossible style

The Gregorian calendar makes no sense; it would be like counting down to Robin Hood's birthday. Ideally, we should be counting up from the day the Earth formed; I suggest the moment when Thea made contact with primordial Earth, as that's the moment when the _real_ Earth began. But, as we can't pinpoint that moment, the Holocene calendar makes sense from a human history point of view.

One fun tidbit I’m surprised this video didn’t mention: some character names are references to oil and petroleum companies. The Sinclair family (Sinclair Oil Company, who also use a dinosaur as their mascot), Earl’s best friend Roy Hess (Hess Corporation), and Earl’s boss BP Richfield (BP=British Petroleum, and Richfield referring to a field rich in oil deposits, as well as referencing the character’s wealth…very clever name :D )

@dbnydnvn In my opinion, that would have made for an adequate but forgettable ending. I think it was a good lesson for children that not all endings in life are happy ones, and that sometimes things go wrong that their parents and teachers are just as powerless as they are to put right. Every generation has its Pearl Harbor / Challenger / 9-11-01 moment when we have to acknowledge that even for children, the real world can't always be Disney. I especially like that the show didn't actually show the fate of the dinosaurs, but still made it abundantly clear in terms that most children could understand that things were not going to end well.

Then Fran came up with the idea of actually offering people solutions to their problems, so she ended up replacing him, and one bit of hilarious environmental storytelling was that when Frank was hosting the show had a large "FRANK" on the background, but when Fran replaced him they just removed the "K" at the end, leaving the name off-center, which is exactly the sort of cost-cutting half measure actual TV executives would do in real life.

Out of all the characters Robbie, the teenage son, was the one that was consistently able to recognize things ingrained in their society that would lead to disaster in the long term, and he was the one that fought the hardest for change. His younger sister wasn't as vocal on things like environmental issues, but she had her moments too, especially for the finale. The sad and relevant irony is that since they were kids with their whole lives ahead of them, they were the ones that got hit the hardest when the adults that had ignored them all along the way ruined the planet for everyone.

I'm not exactly sure how this runs alongside the origin story you provided here but I can tell you when I was around ten years old my father worked for Landmark Entertainment Group (They did the Captain Power tv show and lots of theme park attractions and their company president Gary Goddard directed the MOTU movie). In the lobby of their office I saw a large model and characters on a miniature stage of a kitchen which appeared to be a show that looked very similar to DINOSAURS but with an Aliens theme. When I asked about it, they said that this show was pitched as an alien sitcom with the same technology using live actors in suits with animatronic faces but was rejected and instead made into the show DINOSAURS. It was really interesting seeing what the show could have been in an alternate universe.

I loved this show. I did watch the finale as a kid. I thought it was weird and different, which is what I always liked about it anyway. As an aside, I found out a few years ago that there are several adult jokes hidden in the show. For example, when the Baby curses the word he says is "smoo." I happened to date someone who was from Australia who clued me in to the fact that smoo is an Australian slang term for, as she put it, "lady bits." I never would have known that if not for her so I imagine it flew over a lot of people's heads like it did mine. But Jim Henson productions are kind of infamous for sneaking in adult themes and references and such so it's not surprising. As an adult it's a new way to appreciate the show

I still remember when the Simpsons referenced Dinosaurs and Bart said, "It's like they saw our lives and put it right up on screen." The Simpsons had the same attitude to Family Guy and American Dad.

I love this show, so much of it is still relevant and hilarious. One of the few TV shows I have on disc so I can watch it whenever, regardless of streaming status.

Dinosaurs is a classic

We called it Tuesday's Dinosaurs. My whole family watched it every week, including my mother. Being that my brother and I were smartasses, we all enjoyed the baby's smartassness and his insistence on saying "Not the mama!"

Imagine being a kid, seeing this final episode, asking their parents what's gonna happen, and the parents either coddling their child with a made up narrative that it all works out and the dinosaurs are fine, or having parents who truth bomb their kids with cold hard facts

I demand an extended cut. What happened between 245,000,000 BC and 1955!?

The Ice Age, mankind going from domesticated cavemen to a species that will end up doing what the Sinclairs have done but worse than an Ice Age. Because in the end, *we learned absoulately nothing*

Dinosaurs is an amazing show with phenomenal animatronics and suits, something unique and special that we'll never see again. The final episode is unforgettable and perfect for the tone of the series. Now I own all of the episodes on DVD, I hope they consider a Blu-Ray release.

I'm a little confused if you go by this that means the show had to endings. There was an episode about an archaeologist finding the Sinclair family as fossils and they had all died sitting around watching television. That episode ended with the Sinclair family zombie fight watching a television show called box full of puppies if I remember the episode correctly. They hinted at watching television had made the dinosaurs go extinct I was under the impression that was the last episode of the series I didn't know there was a second episode of a totally separate Extinction event. I should also point out that there was literally a program in the late 90s that talked about Jim Henson Studios being bought by Disney after Jim Henson died and that it was a property of Disney Studios it was like a half an hour program talking about the history of Jim Henson Studios and Jim Henson himself and his death. They talked about stuff like the original Kermit the Frog being made out of a jacket. This is the first I heard that the Disney deal didn't go through for Henson Studios. When I Google it I get told that the Jim Henson Studios are owned by Walt Disney Corporation.

The intro was frigging jazzy too. Also evoked a lot of hippy New Orleans music.

I was in my late teens when this aired, I remembered thinking it was pretty funny. Now I know why the finale didn't stick out in my mind - who airs the finale and then 7 more episodes? That kind of killed the impact of the episode.

As a child I liked the brontosaurus, which has been renamed to apatasaurus. But, I used to show dinosaur books to my son, from there, learned how cool the ankylosaurus was (I was pronouncing it as ankliosaurus myself). I was surprised when you agreed that was yours. AKA, the bone crusher!
