Episode 1-6
This is mostly about the opening narration during the credits and scenes from prior episodes, but also used once or twice in episode six -- the term "beyond imagination"...kind of sells short whatever imaginations we the viewers (or at least they the characters) have, doesn't it?
just a thought.
Episode 1 & 2
I think I know what they mean by pieces that don't fit the fossil record...its not invented for this show, actually: there's a Cretaceous jawbone from a Permian-era animal (one of those with tusks and beaks), and there's always the Coelocanths' vanishing from the fossil record for 65 million years.
...just a thought.
Episode 2
When Abby and Connor were getting scared in the woods, I thought it was one of those swamp amphibians.
Episode 3
Abby's probably counting her blessings that mosasaurs don't crawl like sea turtles. Sliding like orcas is enough. :)
"I'm human." sounds like a good reason.
(though I'm wondering - it was 8 years for Nick...how long was it for Helen?)
Episode 4
She ran across a Utahraptor in the Jurassic? I thought they were Cretaceous North America....or is she just mocking him?
Actually, some of the first-hand accounts of live dodos comments on them being quite aggressive little birds during the nesting season - the things bite all too well.
Episode 5
Based on the skull shape, I thought they were Eudimorphodons...though I'm not sure they share the Jurassic with Pteradon. Anomalies bridged there?
Well, Nick'd be the first authentic human fossil from that early...I think scientists found a human skeleton in coal, named it for being a victim of the Great Flood -- and it turned out to be a giant salamander.
(so yeah, Cutter'd be in good company) :)
When Connor was standing by the pond, I thought Abby was going to shove him in.
