Based on an idea by Jim Henson, Dinosaurs is a live-action series which employs Jim Henson Productions’ puppetry and audio animatronics from Henson’s fabled Creature Shop. Combined with smart writing and hilarious characters, Jim Henson Productions’ ground-breaking puppet technology created a show which won an Emmy Award for Outstanding Art Direction (1991), the coveted Parents Choice Award for Television (1992), Parents Choice Gold Seal Award (1992), the Environmental Media Award (1991, 1993), Genesis Award (1991), the New York Film Festival Silver Medal for Family Programming Award (1992) and the Chicago International Film Festival Silver Hugo Award (1993).

Dinosaurs’ vocal cast features all-time TV favorites Sherman Helmsley (TV’s “The Jeffersons”) and Sally Struthers (TV’s “All In The Family”), with a guest star list that includes Jason Alexander, Michael Richards and Julia Louis-Dreyfus (all of TV’s “Seinfeld” fame), Tim Curry (“Valiant”) and legendary comedian Buddy Hackett (“The Love Bug”).

BONUS FEATURES

• PRE-HYSTERICAL TIMES: THE MAKING OF ‘DINOSAURS’
This featurette is a never-before-seen look at how Jim Henson’s Creature Shop brought Dinosaurs to life.

• THE ART OF DINOSAURS
Character Designer Kirk Thatcher takes viewers through his original designs for Dinosaurs.

Dinosaurs chronicles the story of the highly-evolved and hysterically funny Sinclair family, whose daily adventures may be the most comic in pre-history. Earl Sinclair (Stuart Pankin) is a bombastic, middle-aged Megalosaurus. A blue-collar dinosaur, Earl has worked as a tree pusher for 24 years. Fran (Jessica Walter) is Earl’s even-tempered Allosaurus wife. Their two adolescent children are Robbie (Jason Willinger), the 14-year-old with unconventional beliefs, and Charlene (Sally Struthers), the 12-year old, two-ton epitome of a material girl who never finishes talking or shopping. Completing the family are Baby (Kevin Clash), the attention-grabbing newborn, and Grandma Ethyl (Florence Stanley), Fran’s mother who opposes Earl on everything. They’re joined by Roy Hess (Sam McMurray), Earl’s best friend, co-worker and a confirmed bachelor Tyrannosaurus, and B.P. Richfield (Sherman Hemsley), Earl’s ferocious Triceratops boss.

Dinosaurs is a production of Michael Jacobs Productions and Jim Henson Productions in association with Walt Disney Television. Executive Producer Michael Jacobs, Co-Executive Producer Brian Henson, Supervising Producer Bob Young. Produced by Mark Brull, Co-Producer Jeff McCracken, Co-Producer Kirk R. Thatcher. Associate Producer Kim Rozenfeld.

Es una pena que no tenga audio en español... esperemos que este sea uno de los sets que lleguen a México, sin embargo han salido muchísimos sets por parte de Buenavista que hasta la fecha no han salido en R4 que la verdad lo dudo (y peor aún, no se dice nada de los subtítulos :x )

NO LA MAMA!!! (y ojalá Disney Latino "NO LA MAME" con no traer esta serie a México)
