12	[[AC: Walking with Dinosaurs]]
13	* At the end of the first episode, the narrator talks about the ''Coelophysis'' leading to bigger animals. Cue ''Plateosaurus'' coming in bellowing, as if to tell the ''Coelophysis'' "Make way for the new hotness, Gramps!"
14	* During the first attack of the ''Allosaurus'', one of the baby ''Diplodocus'' [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=C0r5P-PzIPU makes a sound]] (at around 0:50 in the video) that almost sounds like [[ThisIsGonnaSuck "Uh-oh..."]]
15	* To quote Branagh on a [[{{Gasshole}} gassholish]] ''[[UsefulNotes/StockDinosaursTrueDinosaurs Diplodocus]]'':
16	-->''"The activity in its gut produces a lot of excess gas."''
17	* The [[OhCrap reaction]] from the ''Ornitholestes'' when he finds out that his former prey, the baby ''Diplodocus'', are [[AttackOfThe50FootWhatever all grown up]]. Special mention goes to the way one of them turns to look at him and bellows as if to say, "Who's the big guy '''''now''''', punk!?"
18	* In "Cruel Sea", a baby ''Opthalmosaurus'' nudges an ammonite to no avail; the narrator says he hasn't learned how hard their shells are yet.
19	* In "Giant of the Skies", we have a moment featuring an unfortunate ''Tapejara'' who ends up perched next to a massive blowhole. If you look closely, you can even see him shaking water off of his wings when he gets splashed!
20	* The ''Leallynasaura's'' defense mechanism. She kicks up dead leaves to fend off an egg-stealing mammal. Special mention goes to the unfortunate mammal's response; it was live acted by a real mammal (a coati) and so this means the filmmakers had to ''actually'' throw leaves at the poor little thing!
21	* A snake starts keeping an eye on the baby ''T. rex'' at one point. And then they get too close for comfort. The narrator's response?
22	-->''"The snake does not like what it can see."''
23	** Even funnier; the snake is not a CGI animated model--that was a ''real'' snake they used. One can only imagine what the poor thing must have been thinking while being harassed by weird-looking puppets.
24	* There's something darkly amusing about what happens to the ''Tyrannosaurus'' when the shockwaves from the meteor impact arrive at the very end. As the wind picks up, the two babies fly off-screen so quickly that it almost invites a slide whistle sound effect, followed by the limp body of the adult being thrown by the shockwaves as well.

26	[[AC: The 2013 Movie]]
27	* One of the Azhdarchids [[ForgotICouldFly forgets it can fly]] and almost falls off a cliff. And the other two just sit there, as if to say "You can FLY you idiot!".
28	* Alex gives a lecture about the ''Gorgosaurus'', but he has to cut it short because he can't stop laughing about its tiny arms.
29	* Patchi and Alex argue about the "dive" the former had done in the river...which was actually him and Scowler falling in during the Gorgosaurus attack. Heck, they even rewind the scene a bit!
30	* When Patchi leads the herd off the icy lake, he starts pushing trees down, saying at one point, "Take that, random tree!"
31	* The ''Troodon'' gets a hilarious OhCrap look when Patchi stops him from stealing the eggs.
32	* Patchi and Alex, on Bulldust.
33	-->'''Patchi:''' Classic Dad. He was a man of few words.
34	-->'''Alex:''' Actually, he was a man of one word.
35	-->'''Bulldust:''' ''(Stamps his foot and gives a very loud, very un-anthropomorphized roar.)''
36	-->'''Alex:''' That one.
37	* Patchi: "She likes me! And my hole!"
38	* Also, Alex: "Ah, young love, so beautiful, so precious-" NOM "Gotcha!"
39	** John's played-up accent and deadpan delivery make this even more hilarious.
40	* "[[{{Irony}} Someday, these mammals will go extinct, and we'll have the last laugh]]." How wrong you are, Patchi.
41	* Gorgon glaring at Patchi after the latter calls him "Tiny Arms".
42	* In an oddly humorous way, the last time we see Scowler is when he’s awkwardly standing behind Patchi and Juniper after [[spoiler:the former of the two declares dominance once and for all over him ]] and leads the herd away. ''He doesn’t even follow after them.''

44	[[AC: Other]]
45	* The "Making of..." programs are chock full of gags, spliced in between the more serious scenes of TalkingHeads. Also the end credits. Oh, the end credits. Not really laugh-out-loud funny, more amusing. Like the production crew filming the animals as if they were actors, or the Earth tremors at the end of the Cretaceous turning out not to be the results of the meteor impact, but a random dromaeosaur construction-worker jackhammering the place.
46	** TheStinger, featuring a ''Utahraptor'' being interviewed while smoking a cigarette and saying, in a really posh British accent, that he found the [[MediumAwareness animators to be the most difficult to work with]].
47	-->'''Utahraptor''': "Chase this dinosaur!" "Chase that dinosaur!" You'd swear we couldn't act! It's so degrading!
48	** The "[[NoAnimalsWereHarmed No dinosaurs were harmed]]" sign, accompanied by a pre-rendered dinosaur licking its privates [[AllAnimalsAreDogs like a dog]], then realizing it's being filmed.
49	** In one of the title gags, an animator gets annoyed at a living dinosaur model that he's trying to scan for the 3D rendering and tells it to stand still. It immediately runs off and jumps all over the place.
50	** The ''T. Rex'' chasing a ''Didelphodon'', only for about a hundred ''Didelphodons'' to start chasing after it.
51	** They figured out how the ''Ornithocheirus'' should walk by getting a crew member to use brooms as crutches.
52	** At the end of the Making of... for "The Ballad of Big Al", the scientist lays flowers on Al's grave, and walks off over the hill. This is followed by Al tromping out after her, and out of sight, she screams.
53	* In the Arena Spectacular, the Narrator makes a whole lot of build up to the ''Tyrannosaurus rex's'' grand entrance. Cue a ''baby'' ''Tyrannosaurus'' running in and squealing adorably. Of course, [[MamaBear his 7-ton mumsy]] shows up immediately after...
