The five-part series devotes an episode apiece to dinosaurs found in Africa, Europe, North America, South America, and Australia/Antarctica. The exclusion of Asia is one of the series' few shortcomings. The DVD's special features include direct scene access where you can jump between thematic sections, a trivia quiz to see how well you remember the information presented, and spotlighted dinosaurs where you can jump between the specific dinosaurs presented in each episode. Although the visuals in the BBC's Walking with Dinosaurs are more impressive, these are still quite spectacular. In addition, there is so much new and different material presented here that any dinosaur-enthusiast's collection should include both. Expert or novice, kid or grownup, these DVDs will appeal to anyone interested in learning more about what the earth was like When Dinosaurs Ruled. --Tara Chace

thank you.
Very informative
If you are looking for the spectacular computer animated dinosaurs that are found in 'Walking With Dinosaurs', look somewhere else. This set doesn't have them. What it does have, however, is a lot of wonderful, up to date, fact based information on dinosaurs not found anywhere else. It is enough to keep a five year olds' attention, and intelligent enough to pull me into watching it as well.
I have a five year old son who is absolutely ga-ga for dinosaurs, and voraciously watches anything he can find on them, pours over books about them, spends hours putting together and taking apart puzzles of them, colors endless quantities of pictures of them - in short, anything with a dinosaur on the cover he wants. When he saw this, there was nothing for it but to buy it. I have to say I don't regret it for a minute.
To be honest, I purchased this not expecting much. I had read reviews of others and thought it would be inferior to anything else out there, but might keep him occupied for a while. To be fair, the animation is substandard, you can tell that it was made for tv, and the editing isn't the greatest. However, I found myself watching it with him, facinated dispite myself. The information is presented in an easy to listen to maner, with graphs, charts, and animation that(while substandard compared to Walking With Dinosaurs)gives you a feel for the size and weight these creatures must have had. And, being that they were produced in 2000, the information is more up to date than most everything else out there with facinating new discoveries.
True, there is repetion of content from one DVD to the next, but the repetion deals more with the basics of dinosaur evolution and the relevent time periods than repeating information about the individual dinosaurs themselves. While the repetition can be frustrating for adults, it also means that each of the DVDs stands on it's own, and can be watched in any order.
In short, I found this set, while a bit pricey, to be worth it, and am not sorry I got it at all.
Absolute garbage
Don't waste your money. I'm sorry I did.
