The 1990s classic animated series Dinosaurs followed the lives of the Sinclairs, a dinosaur family consisting of parents Fran (Jessica Walter), Earl (Stuart Pankin), and their children Baby Sinclair, Robbie (Leif Tilden), and Charlene (Sally Struthers).
The Jim Henson Company production was known for its social satire and periodic cynicism – in fact, the sarcasm is what made the show so appealing to many viewers. The show did appeal to all ages, however, thanks in large part to precocious Baby Sinclair (performed by Sesame Street Elmo puppeteer, Kevin Clash).
The show was developed by Jim Henson shortly before his death and continues to have a loyal fan base, even though it has been off the air for nearly 30 years. Twitter is abuzz with fan reactions to the show’s imminent Disney+ debut — it was taken off of Hulu a couple of years ago, so viewers have been waiting quite some time to be able to watch Baby Sinclair and his hilarious family on a streaming platform again!

Can’t wait for dinosaurs to be on Disney+ already. Been sad ever since it was removed from Hulu.
