Have you seen it?
Well if you were a fan of Jim Henson's work then you should know this show!
OK, Jim Henson died before seeing this, but at least "a" Henson work on it! The show produced by Disney, witch I believe was the best show they ever had! Well compared to what they have now!
The show has a lot of rip offs of other great shows that came out in the 80's like, "The Simpsons", "Rosanne" and I believe it also has a little bit of "Married with Children" in there somewhere!
The show is about a family of dinosaurs known as "The Sinclairs" and focus on the father, Earl Sinclair and his troubles dealing in a modern world that some how takes place before time, but thats the joke! The show gets stolen as soon as it started with it's first episode by a very small character simply known as "Baby"! A wise cracking infant dinosaur, that won't give his father any peace!
The family faces all kinds of problems and obstacles. Such as prejudices, sexism, injustice from the government and... Pot!? Yeah there's a episode where they find a plant that makes them feel good, lazy and happy all the time! I actually love that episodes! Why? Cause it's f*cking funny! ;D
One moment in the episode, Earl gives the strange plant to his boss and he literally becomes a hippie! In fact Earl's boss, B.P. Richfield is one of my favorite characters! Why? Well just because he's a big asshole and he's played by Sherman Hemsley, you know, Mr.Jefferson!
Well on all n' all, this is a pretty great show! I grew up watching it and it did make an impact on a lot of people! Not too rememberable, but if you'll ask someone chances are they'll be like "Oh yeah, that show!" It only lasted 4 seasons and I got both of the box sets that completes the entire show!
It has it's very comical moments and it's not just for kids cause it has some cuss wards like, "damn" or "Hell"! The story lines to a lot of episodes have a mature plot like the episode their dealing with drug issues!
If you get a chance, give the show a watch, it well sure to give a smile on your face! 3 1/2 "NOT THE MOMMA'S" out of 5!
