I've looked at the first episode of Planet Dinosaur (by the same team who created Walking with Dinosaurs), and the CGI looks impressive! I also liked the method of showing bits of evidence: what the fossil material looked like, where it was found etc... There was even a simplified oxygen isotope graph in there! There aren't too many obvious errors, apart from stretching the truth a little here and there. It probably wouldn't make for a solid viewing experience if the entire doco was littered with 'probablys', 'maybes' and 'mights', but then the viewers won't know which postulations are backed up with (relatively) solid evidence and which aren't.
Planet Dinosaur appears to have much better CGI and walking mechanics than Dinosaur Revolution. I don't really care much about that stuff normally, but the anthropomorphication of the dinosaurs along with the over-the-top action WAM BAM! voice-over made me like Dinosaur Revolution less and less. Even the female
Who knows? As I continue to watch these shows/docos, my opinions might change...
