Dinosaur Planet (2003– )
3/10
Too much like a Disney programme
17 October 2011
Before you start going for my throat, let me point out that this is my opinion and mine only. If you agree, fine, if you don't, fine too.

Now, I had the distinct displeasure of seeing two parts this week in a re-run on UK TV.

The first impression was that the dinosaurs look more like cuddly toys, come plastic bathtub Godzilla look-a-likes. In other words, awful.

There is hardly any interaction of the animals with their environment and personally, I don't like the idea of humanised dinosaurs (ie. giving them names and attach human emotions to such animals).

If you are 10 years old, yes, watch it, you might like it. If you've already grown up, grab a book and save the time doing something useful.

As far as a comparison with 'Walking with Dinosaurs' is concerned, I think it beats the hell out of this programme, never mind any inaccuracies.
