100% of the time TVShowsonDVD.com is reliable. I trust their work, and I do not think this is any different. I am so excitef to something of this. I almost bought some old Blockbuster tapes, as I was getting desperate.
If I may hijack this thread for a moment, this show reminds me of a little story...
I work in the News Dept of an ABC affiliate. When Dinosaurs was debuting, our station decided to do a little preview of it in our news. Right after the first news block we hit the tease for it. At the bottom of the screen was the text, "Coming up... Prehistoric Hijinks!"
Unfortunately the tapes got mixed up and we were showing video of Rodney King getting beaten on by the cops.
I love this show. Recently I introduced it (on tape) to my daughter, and she loved it. Those VHS tapes are looking yucky on my HDTV-ready set, though. DVDs will be most welcome!!! At times, Dinosaurs rivals Simpsons for its biting satire.
Awww, shucks. Thanks, RyanAn, but I only wish it was true. Fans of Family Ties and Birds of Prey know all too well that we aren't 100% reliable. Thanks for the vote of confidence, though!
This is a must buy. Dinosaurs was a hilarous series. It was also surprisingly political. Not liberal or conservative though. On one hand it seems to be pro environment on the other hand it mocks big government and family planning programs. It used these talking dinosaurs to create an excellent parody on modern family life. TVshowsonDVD is normally accurate so I can't wait to pick the show up.
This show never got it's proper credit. It came after the success of The Simpsons but before South Park & Family Guy. There was also a large number of Simpsons "knock-offs" around that time and Dinosaurs perhaps suffered because of this. It got knocked around the schedule way too much. Now I hope it gets it's due on DVD the same way that Family Guy did. I doubt we'll ever see new episodes but the entire series on disc would be great. I just hope it happens before we're all extinct.
