Except Small?

In the Perfect Predators section of the article it states that "The Cretaceous spawned walking death-machines of all sizes...except small". This I find a rather irrelevant statement, as the program does feature Deinonychus, a fairly small dinosaur. I'm going to delete that small part. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.153.113 (talk) 04:48, 28 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Controversy

I think that this article should mention Matt Wedel's hatred of the program, as seen here: [1]. 70.80.215.121 (talk) 00:08, 19 April 2011 (UTC)Adam70.80.215.121 (talk) 00:08, 19 April 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Never mind, I wrote it myself. 70.80.215.121 (talk) 11:57, 22 May 2011 (UTC)Adam70.80.215.121 (talk) 11:57, 22 May 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Errors list

I generally share the negative opinions of this series expressed in this section of the article, but I can't help but think it's entirely too negative. Several things listed as errors are actually hypotheses that have been either challenged or invalidated, such as the running speed of Tyrannosaurus and the social life of Triceratops. The line stating that two Deinonychus would not have attempted to take on a Sauroposeidon is really just an opinion expressed by one detractor of the series: while the objection does make sense, calling it an "error" is extreme.

Also, most of the listed errors have no citations, and the point about the number of claws Triceratops had is listed twice. I'll remove one of the two claw references. Tennesseellum (talk) 02:39, 18 August 2011 (UTC)[reply]

I added a template to that section calling for additional citations. Hopefully more people will pitch in now. Chris 13:40, 23 August 2011 (UTC) — Preceding unsigned comment added by Crw21 (talk • contribs)

Inaccuracies section

In the inaccuracies section, it is stated that T-rex, while smaller than some theropods, was the largest predator in its local environment. That's not saying much! A FOX could be the largest predator in a particular environment! T-rex was 13 feet tall at the hips and approached 42 feet in length, it was one of the largest predators of ALL TIME, not just in its particular environment. Also, the bigger carnivores weren't noticeably larger than T-rex. Slightly larger, but roughly the same size. Besides, is it ever even stated in the program that T-rex is THE largest theropod. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.36.148.242 (talk) 21:01, 25 September 2011 (UTC)[reply]

Premiere Date

Did the show actually premiere on December 13, 2009? Multiple sources I've found, such as this one, claim that the show premiered on December 6. Chris (talk) 01:07, 2 December 2011 (UTC)[reply]
