** The central idea of pack hunting tyrannosauroids is also a heavily discussed topic, and does indeed make many experts cry, because it's more sensationalist than scientific. There's little evidence that tyrannosaurs were pack hunters, and even less for ''Tarbosaurus'' itself. And no, finding different individuals at the same place, that all died at the same time, is not concrete evidence.

** Incorrect use of StockFootage means ''Saltasaurus'' becomes ''Nemegtosaurus'' (close enough), ''Aucasaurus'' a tyrannosaur (a totally different kind of dinosaur), ''Nothronychus'' a ''Therizinosaurus'' (again, not much of a difference), and the most baffling of all, ''Triceratops'' animation is used for ''Protoceratops''. The animals are way different: ''Protoceratops'' was a much more primitive and smaller ceratopsian that lacked the horns ''Triceratops'' is so famous for; not only that, the editors had access to copious amounts of ''Protoceratops'' stock footage anyway, yet still refrained from using it.

* KingOfTheDinosaurs: Averted; the focus is on ''Tarbosaurus'' instead of ''Tyrannosaurus''.

* FeatheredFiend: Various feathered dinosaurs that appear in StockFootage shots. Some people argue that perhaps even tyrannosaurs were coated, but this show went the conservative way, giving them scales.

* DumbDino: One Talking head thinks T. rex if not most of its kind were too dumb for complex social behaviour, lt alone pack hunting.

* SeldomSeenSpecies: Possibly the only time ''Tarbosaurus'' has gotten star billing in a documentary.

** Anatomically iffy dinosaurs. The adult ''Tarbosaurus'' looks like a cross between the ''Series/WalkingWithDinosaurs'' and ''Series/AnimalArmageddon'' ''T. rex'' (both of which were already pretty badly designed), while the "''Parasaurolophus''" could pass for a {{CGI}} hand-puppet.

A 2011 TVDocumentary and tie-in book from the Creator/DiscoveryChannel, presented by renowned paleontologist and tyrannosaur-enthusiast Phil Currie. The main theme is finding evidence to support Currie's theory of pack-hunting tyrannosaurs. Interestingly, it focuses on ''Tarbosaurus'' rather than ''TyrannosaurusRex''.

* TyrannosaurusRex: {{Subversion}} -- The main focus is on its relative ''Tarbosaurus''.

Compare to ''ValleyOfTheTRex'', an older Discovery docu that proposes the exact opposite idea, that tyrannosaurs were scavengers.

* StockFootage: From ''Series/WhenDinosaursRoamedAmerica'', ''Series/ClashOfTheDinosaurs'', ''Series/DinosaurPlanet'', and various modern-day nature documentaries. However a lot of new animation also gets repeated.
