This is what happens when science is made into entertainment.
i think this show did a disservice to evolutionary biology and paleontology everywhere. because it is 100% speculation. fiction, passed off as fact.
and yet when you watch it, it looks and feels just like the "walking with dinosaurs," which is actually based on realy studies, and is backed up by a lot of evidence. very very little speculation is used, and the only fictionalization is the individualized plots and "characters."
basically, it makes the other legit shows look bad.
