And may I just say, that the fourth episode, "Giant of the Skies", is
perhaps one of the best shows that focus on an animal's lifestyle. The
Tapejara are plain bizarre, but semi-comical in their attempts at finding
love, and the shot of the Iguanodon beach trek as the hero, Ornithocheirus,
soars above is worth buying the series for alone.
But a question - will Discovery Channel also be screening the "Making Of"
special, which is very clever and informative in its own right? Plus, it
has hilarious "outtakes".
