* TheCretaceousIsAlwaysDoomed: Also averted. Even though its very end is portrayed (65 mya), also earlier epochs of the Cretaceous are encountered in the time-travel -- ex. 100 mya and 70 mya.

None


* EvilEggEater: Averted. The ''Oviraptor''s do steal the ''Protoceratops'' eggs only by mere hunger, and the main host even says to them jokingly "Well... good meal!"

Added DiffLines:

* ApocalypseHow: It is invoked in the forth episode. The infamous Cold War had ended a few years before the program, and in TheEighties some even hypothized the terrifying scenario of a "nuclear winter" if the nuclear superpowers would have use their atomic bombs in a "mad atomic war", as said by the main host.

* TheTunguskaEvent: It's described in the same episode above before the hit of the Asteroid, and is compared with the K/T Extinction Event by the main host. The Tunguska one was hugely less-devastating than the one at the end of the Cretaceous, but in year 1908 burned and destroyed trees for 1.000s of square kilometers, in "a totally isolated and almost-uninhabited land of Siberia", the Tunguska region indeed. In a nearby region of Siberia placed more westernly, a small bolid hit as recently as in 2013 causing much damage (but luckily no victims), and is known as the [[http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chelyabinsk_meteor Chelyabinsk Meteor]] from the eponymous Russian city near the Urals.
