The Dinosaurs!, American television miniseries produced by PBS in 1992, featuring some of the then-modern theories about dinosaurs and how they lived.
The program features the age of dinosaurs, from the appearing of the early forms like Herrerasaurus, to the Tyrannosaurus and Ceratopsians of the late Cretaceous. The possibilities whether dinosaurs were active, warm-blooded animals, had parental care, and the theory that they are the ancestors to birds are featured. What caused their extinction are also discussed.
Some animated depictions were made to give an impression about how the dinosaurs might or could have looked like and how they might or would have behaved. Those animations have been featured in other media since. Some of them have been available to see in public computers at Swedish Museum of Natural History. Many of the animations have also been uploaded on YouTube.
The Dinosaurs, formed in 1982, was a Bay Area supergroup to emerge from the psychedelic music era of San Francisco. The core group consisted of Peter Albin of Big Brother and the Holding Company, John Cipollina of Quicksilver Messenger Service, Spencer Dryden of Jefferson Airplane, Robert Hunter of the Grateful Dead, Barry Melton of Country Joe and The Fish and keyboardist Merl Saunders from the Saunders-Garcia Band. Over time Papa John Creach of Hot Tuna, Jack Casady of Jefferson Airplane, Nicky Hopkins, Dave Getz, Country Joe McDonald and other prominent San Francisco musicians would guest star with the group. In the 1990s David LaFlamme of It's a Beautiful Day and Jerry Miller of Moby Grape also toured with this group.
The Dinosaurs became active in 1982, with Albin, Dryden, Cipollina, Melton, and Hunter at its center. Hunter would later leave the group (in 1985) before the end of its "classic" run, though he would return to record a track for their only album, released in 1988. By 1987, Merl Saunders had more or less taken Hunter's place in the band. The original group presumably ran its course up through 1989, at which point the group broke up (John Cippolina died just two weeks after the band's final concert, during which he had to sit in a wheelchair due to health issues). Unfortunately, the rest of the band's history (up through the 1990s and beyond) is poorly documented. In fact, their entire history is poorly documented, save for concerts on the audio archive. In 1988, the band released its only studio album, Dinosaurs. In 2005 the band released a retrospective album on the Evangeline label, entitled Friends of Extinction.

Meteors came hurtling to Earth and stopped life as they knew it for the dinosaurs. Complete and instantaneous extinction is no longer the theory. What did the extinction look like? See how a T-Rex survives impact as some animals did, only to succumb to the aftermath of the meteor's damage.

Resolute steps sound
A man is aware of them
He's proud of his life
All spent betraying himself
With no remorse hides
His heart from his own mind
Fateful omissions
And now back home again
Cold breath
Twilight
Come near
Sad eyes
Can't you hear them?
They are trying to show
Some reflections
Of you dressed by guilt
The sudden dance
Shakes down the shrine
And steals your mind
Unfair judge, look around
It’s you, your love
Our faith so sworn
The spells you’ve never cast
It’s time right now
Dance with us
Put your pride away!
We are the dancers
You must free us from this shifty cage!
Cage - help - free
About to fall
To rise your eyes
A light ray shines
The steps freeze
No way out from here
A new day dawns
To teach new lies
