* AluminumChristmasTrees: Yes, ''Pachyrhinosaurus'' having a keratinous horn was a legitimate theory that has been around ever since Main/The80s, though it was always a controversial interpretation. And while it was waning in popularity in the 2000s, it wasn't until a 2009 study [[note]] A year after the series aired. [[/note]] [https://anatomypubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/full/10.1002/ar.20985 on the cranial anatomy of the animal emphasized how different its skull was from that of a rhino]] (who does sport a keratinous horn) that the idea died for good. Furthermore, the rhino-like horn given to the show's version of ''Pachyrhinosaurus'' was actually quite ''conservative'' compared to [[https://www.storagetwo.com/blog/2016/9/meet-our-resident-dinosaurs-pachyrhinosaurus many other horned depictions]]. Just look at 2019's ''Series/AmazingDinoworld'', which ''really'' had no excuse.

* BileFascination: This is pretty much the only reason why people, especially paleontology fans, would watch this series after the 2000s anymore. See SoBadItsGood below.

** While hardly any of the animals portrayed here are particularly popular, the show’s depiction of ''Allosaurus'' (who, rather tellingly, [[CreatorsPet happens to be George Blasing’s favorite dinosaur]]) is especially loathed, [[CharacterShilling due to constantly being shilled by the show]], [[TooDumbToLive being involved in some of its the dumbest moments]], and its treatment of the smaller ''Ceratosaurus'', who’s only there to be a StrawLoser to ''Allosaurus'' and get slaughtered by it (twice), which doesn’t make ''Allosaurus'' come across as the “ultimate Jurassic badass” but rather as a BarbaricBully.
