Here are some highlights of U.S. national television programming
concerning dinosaurs, other prehistoric animals and evolution, all
times Eastern (check local listings as coverage of the activity of a
certain executive zipper may preempt normal programming):

Thursday, September 17

Discovery Channel, 8:00pm
Jurassic Survivors
My TV guide announces that turtles, lizards, snakes, crocodiles and
"even birds" are dinosaur relatives.  I wonder: will this be an
interesting review of prehistoric relatives of modern reptiles or a
documentary on reptiles masquerading as someting else to cash in on
dinomania?

Thursday, September 17/Friday, September 18
Discovery Channel, Midnight
Jurassic Survivors

Saturday, September 19

Cinemax, 9:00pm
Super Mario Brothers
What this is, God only knows.  Apparently a movie based on a video
game (as all cinematic classics indeed are) about plumbers who save a
princess from a "dinosaur world in the sewer."  Strangely enough, Bob
Hoskins is in it.

Sunday, September 20

Discovery Channel, 9:00am
Bonehead Detectives of the Paleoworld
Children's show about Paleontology.  This episode: "Who's the
Baddest?" -- search for the "most savage dinosaur."  

Helping to spread the disinformation,
