1 | ''Tyrannosaurus Sex'' is an hour-long SpeculativeDocumentary special that aired on the Creator/DiscoveryChannel in early 2010 (specifically on Valentine's Day, quite fittingly), and used the latest developments of scientific research to educate viewers about dinosaurs and their dicks. |

5 | Relying on {{CGI}} technology to bring its amorous prehistoric giants to life, the program focused on the romantic relationships of the famed ''Tyrannosaurus'', tangled the topic of what most definitely was a difficult feat for ''Stegosaurus'' to accomplish, and threw in gigantic [[UsefulNotes/PrehistoricLifeDinosaurs titanosaurs]] for good measure (because size matters). |

8 | !!Tropes that appear in this work: |
9 | * AquaticSauropods: At one point brings this up when discussing how sauropods were thought to have mate, complete ith a shot of two of them doing it underwater... but this is only to visually represent it as an outdated idea, and interviewee [[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gregory_M._Erickson Greg Erickson]] refutes this notion entirely, stating they could support themselves on land just fine. |
10 | * ArtisticLicensePaleontology: |
11 | ** ''Tyrannosaurus'' with an incorrect arm-posture and looking more like the Jurassic Park kind. |
12 | ** Chances are that ''Titanosaurus'' never existed as a genus. They probably meant ''Alamosaurus''. |
13 | ** The Stegosaurus has too short a neck and too mammalian a head. |
14 | * DomesticAbuse: The female ''T. rex'' tries to kill her partner. |
15 | * NotMakingThisUpDisclaimer: Used in articles promoting the program. |
16 | * PunBasedTitle: Rex and Sex rhyme. |
17 | * SexyDiscretionShot: Avoided. Dinosaurs are depicted mounting, and their genitals are illustrated. |
18 | * ShoutOut: The male ''Titanosaurs'' have spotted paterning like the Titanosaurs in ''Series/PrehistoricPark''. |
19 | * SpeculativeDocumentary: The genitals and behavior of the dinos are covered. |
