There were always hints that the lighthearted sitcom was actually darker than it seemed, but the ending, my god... how many kids were traumatized by that? Lots of kids watched Dinosaurs.
As an adult, It makes me so happy that they "went there" though. But I also still remember being sad. The pan away to the snowy, doomed landscape. Man.
Had to watch it again.
Oh yeah, that show had some amazing environmental messages in it for something people thought was just silly comedy. All the Dinosaurs had last names of oil companies. Earl's job was literally helping to deforest the planet. They also covered things like gender roles and even sexual harassment. It was an amazingly progressive show with a strong political message that a lot of people entirely missed because "not da mama!"
Also Ferngully. Though that was maybe pretty hard to miss.
Here is an alternative Piped link(s):
