** Firstly, aside from the Sinclairs and main four recurring characters (Roy, Monica, Spike, and Mr. Richfield), the show constantly reuses a dozen or so dinosaur animatronics for various random background and one-off characters. The ''Troodon''-like puppet, who usually plays Mr. Pulman (Robby and Charlene's teacher), is used to play both male and female characters.
** In terms of voice actors, Creator/TimCurry, Creator/JasonAlexander, Creator/MichaelDorn, and Creator/GlennShadix all show up as recurring guest voices.

** UsefulNotes/McDonalds had a Happy Meal tie-in with the series. While the final product was a set plastic hinged moveable toys with finger-pumps of the Sinclair family, [[https://www.instagram.com/consumertc/p/CoFSWASuQk1/ concept art]] reveals that [=McDonald's=] had originally planned to have plastic figures with diorama playsets, such as Earl in the living room and Fran in the kitchen. It is unclear if these dioramas would have been made from the Happy Meal boxes or if they would have been wrapped with the figures.

** A video game for the Super Nintendo was in negotiations in 1993. Several games based on television shows were developed during the time, but received poor reviews as they had nothing to do with the shows and were only using the name during this fad. By the time it came to negotiating a deal for Dinosaurs, the fad had worn off and negotiations were dropped, along with a board game too.

* AccidentallyCorrectWriting: Robbie Sinclair sports long, forward-facing spines on his head meant to resemble a mohawk, and the creators freely admitted that he's [[CartoonCreature not based on any particular dinosaur]]. Flashforward to 2019, and we describe the small sauropod ''Bajadasaurus'', [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bajadasaurus#/media/File:Skeletal_reconstruction_of_Bajadasaurus.png which sported a row of long, forward-facing spines on its neck]], which look oddly similar to Robbie's hairdo. [[note]] Though some have argued that the spines of ''Bajadasaurus'' and the related ''Amargasaurus'' supported a fleshy sail or display structure of some sort. [[/note]]

* The only puppet that still exists intact is Baby Sinclair, aside from a somewhat degraded unisaur head. The latex used to make the puppets degrades quickly in light, so most of them disintegrated rather fast. Many of the animatronic skulls were kept, with some being used as props in the ''Film/FiveNightsAtFreddys'' movie that the Jim Henson Creature Shop built animatronic suits for.

* DuelingDubs: A rather odd case happens in Latin America: There's two dubs, one done in Mexico, used in that country and the rest of the region, and another one done in Venezuela, used exclusively there. The reasons for the existance of the Venezuelan dub was because two of the main national TV networks, Venevision and RCTV, were fighting for the rights of the show. At the end, RCTV won the bid, but they were forced to dub the show by themselves in Venezuela, since Disney, for some unexplained reason, didn't sell them the Mexican-dubbed version.

* CommonKnowledge: A number of retrospectives on this show definitively state that Robbie is a ''Hypsilophodon'' and Charlene is a ''Protoceratops''. While they do resemble those species, WordOfGod is that Robbie and Charlene weren't based on any specific real dinosaur species.
