Dinosaurs is an American children's sitcom television series that was originally broadcast on ABC from April 26, 1991 to July 20, 1994, but 7 episodes of Season 4 aired on Syndication from September 7 - October 19, 1994. The show, about the anthropomorphic dinosaurs (portrayed by puppets), was produced by Michael Jacobs Productions and Jim Henson Productions in association with Walt Disney Television and distributed by Buena Vista International, Inc.. The characters were designed by Henson team member Kirk Thatcher.

Why This Show Is Awesome and You Gotta Love It

1. Memorable theme song.
2. The concept of a dinosaur sitcom is a great and interesting one.
3. Likable characters, such as Earl (the main protagonist) and Baby Sinclair (deuteragonist).
4. The voice acting is decent.
5. Pays homage to pop culture. For example, one episode has a Barney parody called "Blarney," and the other known as "Georgie."
6. It ended Jim Henson's career on a high note.
7. Good puppet/animatronic work.
8. It deserves to have a music video for Baby Sinclair called "I'm The Baby, Gotta Love Me".
9. Memorable quotes like “NOT THE MOMMA!”

The Only Bad Quality

1. latest episode, Changing Nature, has an extremely dark and disturbing plot for an all-ages sitcom.
   • The fact that Earl Sinclair (the main character) accidentally brought about the ice age due to his negligence in destroying the beetles that controlled the wax vine population makes this plot too realistic for an all-ages sitcom.

Trivia

1. It is now available to stream on Disney+ on January 29, 2021.
