I agree, the three hours seemed rather lacking in information, and I already
commented on the unrealistic puppetlike animation. The follow up program
shown last night "Triumph of the Beasts" and "The beasts within Us", were
much more to my liking with the scientists explaining behind the scenes what
they were trying to depict with the animations,...and why.

Personally, Captain Sisco puts me to sleep! It must be his
m..o..n..o..t..o..n..u..s voice. I have not yet been able to view "Walking
with Dinosaurs" in it`s entirety without falling asleep! (no kidding!)
