History YMMV / WalkingWithDinosaurs

** Plateosaurus
** Stegosaurus
** Plesiopleurodon
** Ankylosaurus. Narrowly averted, they have a small introduction early on.
** Quetzalcoatlus
** Deinosuchus
** Titanomyrma
** Woolly Rhinoceros

* EnsembleDarkhorse: The giant sea reptile ''[[StockDinosaursNonDinosaurs Liopleurodon]]''. This show did to him what ''Film/JurassicPark'' did to ''[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Velociraptor]]'': make it stock (as well as exaggerate its size).
** The huge dinosaur ''[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Giganotosaurus]]'' with its memorable predation upon the gigantic [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sauropoda sauropod]] ''[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Argentinosaurus]]'' may be counted as another example. It's interesting both ''Giganotosaurus'' and ''[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Spinosaurus]]'' (the latter became stock after ''Film/JurassicParkIII'') achieved their popularity in the same year (2001).

* ItChangedNowItSucks: Many a dinosaur fan and ''Walking with Dinosaurs'' fan have complained about the 2013 movie humanizing the animals too much.

* MostAnnoyingSound: "[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Anatotitan]]"'s "roar" (it does sound like they're saying the word "roar").

* {{Narm}}: In ''Walking With Monsters''. For all its hunting prowess and deadliness, the famous crested mammal-ancestor ''[[StockDinosaursNonDinosaurs Dimetrodon]]'' looks pretty damn goofy when it's running.

* TheyJustDidntCare: The [=NetFlix=] episode summaries screw up a lot. By which claiming that "Giant of the Skies" centered on ''[[StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Archaeopteryx]]'', promising "mammoth ichthyosaurs" (if by "mammoth" one means "dolphin-sized") and "[[UsefulNotes/PrehistoricLifeNonDinosaurianReptiles marine crocodiles]]" for "Cruel Sea", and claiming that "Death of a Dynasty" was an examination of an unanswered query about the extinction of the dinosaurs, rather than it being a [[DownerEnding plain depiction of]] [[RocksFallEveryoneDies a giant meteorite killing them all]] [[TheMagicGoesAway after a considerable decline from volcanic activity.]]
** ''Chased By Dinosaurs'' has the famous flying reptile ''[[StockDinosaursNonDinosaurs Pteranodon]]'' living in the the earliest part of the Late Cretaceous (it really lived roughly in the middle) and in South America instead of North America. It was [[LiteralMetaphor literally]] in the wrong place at the wrong time.

* SugarWiki/VisualEffectsOfAwesome: Its visual effects are among the most impressive in any TV series ever, period.
** Special mention must go to ''Sea Monsters''. It features pre-historic creatures ''underwater'' and interacting with Nigel.
** The arena spectacular for the sheer spectacle of seeing life-sized dinosaurs live in front of you.
** Although the ''WWD'' movie got mostly negative and mixed reviews, the visuals have impressed mostly everyone, whether it's just the CGI or the 3D effects as well. The bulk of the critics single them (as well as JohnLeguizamo's "spirited way with words") out as the sole saving graces of the film.

** Pretty much every critic and their mothers are attacking the 3D movie. Few people are willing to contest them.

* TheScrappy: Alex the ''Alexornis'' from the 2013 movie is a bizzare example of a ''Reverse'' Scrappy, being one of the only characters who isn't considered annoying and stupid. Being voiced by JohnLeguizamo certainly helped.

** The feature-length WWD film currently in cinemas shouldn't escape mention. While light-hearted and anthropomorphized compared to the original mini-series, a few moments still qualify as rather frightening. [[spoiler: The forest fire, and the death of Bulldust the Pachyrhinosaurus at the hands of the Gorgosaurus pack, both stand out. And the way Pachyrhinosaurus protagonist Patchi, having lost both love interest Juniper and the respect of his brother Scowler, just accepts his fate of being eaten alive by scavenging Troodons and azhdarchids is both downright terrifying and [[TearJerker depressing]]]].

** Gorgon from the 2013 film, mostly for not getting an obnoxious voiceover.

* SugarWiki/AwesomeMusic: Has its own [[AwesomeMusic/WalkingWithDinosaurs sub-page]].

* TheScrappy: Most people dislike Alex the ''Alexornis'' from the 2013 movie, due to him being the designated talkative comic relief.

* SoBadItsGood: Arguably the 2013 movie, with its inept childish dialogue, overthetoply cliché plot and gratitiuous sexism. Others just see it as horrible, though.

** The ''Cryptoclidus'' and baby ''Opthalmosaurus'' in "Cruel Sea". The former is a Jurassic seal and the latter is a Jurassic dolphin.

** And finally, the baby ''Tyrannosaurus Rexes'' from "Death of a Dynasty". Especially [[TheWoobie the runt of the litter]].

* UglyCute: Oh so many.
** The cynodontsfrom "New Blood", and their babies for that matter. They're like little, half-bald puppies.

** Averted, defied, spat upon and ''defiled'' by the upcoming movie, though some things (like a tyrannosaurid having it's teeth punched out of the jaws) are questionable.

** The 2013 installment is not even a documentary, just Spirit with dinosaurs.
