Dino-Cember 02: Earl Sinclair

Why have I become interested in a 1990s Jim Henson puppet sitcom starring Dinosaurs?

I am now thinking of an alternate ending to that bummer of a finale; maybe where the dinos have to leave their world to a different one unaffected by the deep freeze.

My mind is currently on Monster Hunter, since it already got portals to other places, and Mr Richfield would be harvested for rare carves the second he tried to eat another sapient creature.

Real-Life Variations of a Theme Park (or Why Your Christmas Vacays must be HQ)

CW: TV show spoilers, stories of scams.

Perhaps you have watched the 1994 unaired episode of Dinosaurs, “Variations on a Theme Park.”

The head of the Sinclair household, Earl, notices myriad co-workers working themselves (literally) to death, thus, through a news report, rejoices over the announcement that employers have given their employees like him up to 2 weeks of vacation. Earl wanted to watch TV all the fortnight, but his wife Fran announces that they will be staying at a cabin in a swamp as a family.

But travel plans change for the Sinclairs - when WESAYSO CEO Mr. Richfield hands Earl a brochure of Wesaysoland and he gives it to Baby Sinclair, who pleads (via throwing a tantrum, of course) with Fran to take the family there instead of the cabin.

After Earl trades cash for redeemable currency for non-food items, the family arrives at the park, to find that it’s under construction. His eldest son, Robbie, has a sour experience with the teacups ride (which spins slowly) and his sister, Charlene, is merely tipped over at the rocket ride (which turns out to be a cardboard box).

The family is forced to spend the next 13 days in their hotel, doing off-the-grid activities (because the toilet, the refrigerator, the phone, and even the lighting all have usage fees).

Just when you think that the events in this 90s show are all fictional, some ignorant people experienced the same way the Sinclairs did in real life. That particularly includes Brits, who had lived the unaired episode IN REAL LIFE in the forms of trips to Lapland New Forest and Winter Wonderland Milton Keynes.

My digital artwork of the nativity billboard in C__pland New Forest.

The Sinclairs in and outside the Chilterns coughed up their hard-earned quid to experience Winter Wonderland when it opened December 14, 2013. They expected what the social media and websites herald - an ice rink, a meet-and-greet with Santa, and dog sleds.

Through those ads (and, presumably, tantrums from kids who saw them), they found something else. The park was erected on a muddy field with mobile carnival rides. The ice rink was tarped up and the dogs were chained. Santa’s grotto sporadically opened, much to the disdain of parents who paid premiums for a photo op.

The fake Santas were the worst -  they were young, slim men who wore red jumpsuits, loose beards and bad accents.

Winter Wonderland Milton Keynes was a foil of a similar park, Lapland New Forest, which opened and closed in 2008. Like the former, their website promised an ice rink, a tunnel of lights, and a photo op with Santa (or, Father Christmas, for that matter). It even promised appearances by Mickey and Minnie Mouse and Goofy Goof, skating on the said rink!

But families, who coughed up their hard-earned quid, saw things that had further tempered their already high expectations upon arrival.

The nativity scene was merely a mural on a billboard. The tunnel of lights is just a tree-lined passageway with a smattering of lights, Santa - whose photo op queue lasted up to 2 hours - was caught smoking, and the ice rink was inoperable.

Like Milton Keynes’s Stinky (sic) Wonderland, according to one of the patrons, Lapland New Forest was erected on a muddy field with shabby carnival rides.

Britons weren't the only ones making their own real-life takes of "Variations of a Theme Park" from Dinosaurs. Remember the "P-Weak Kids," fellow Aussies? (I wanna make the post as PG-rated as I can here.)

Their skits on The Late Show lampooned theme parks such as Warner Bros. Movie World, Universal Studios, and Disney's Hollywood Studios stateside at Walt Disney World in FL (as P-Weak Movie World); Frontierland in any flagship Disneyland park, including Magic Kingdom, also in FL (as P-Weak Western World); or SeaWorld (P-Weak Marine World).

If Santa’s Winter Village at The Ice Skating Edge in Noarlunga, South Australia, would’ve had an alternate name, it would be called P-Weak Winter World.

Opened and THEN closed in 2020, at the nadir of the COVID-19 pandemic, Santa’s Winter Village cost children 4 and older $38.50 AUD and a family of 4 $120 AUD to take pics in front of a cardboard gingerbread cottage adorned with plastic plates. The replica of The Polar Express was cheaply made, hoisted by a scooter.

Patrons and even some netizens who hadn't EVEN been to Santa’s Winter Village dubbed it the Fyre Festival Of Kids Santa Events, after the event in the Bahamas hosted by con artist Billy McFarland and rapper Ja Rule in the spring of 2017 THAT DIDN'T HAPPEN.

But longtime The Late Show hounds called it other aliases. Twitter user Steel Sheep was wont to call it "P-Weak World: the Christmas Spectacular."

"We have arranged with the team at The Ice Skating Edge to close Santa’s Winter Village today, stop selling tickets to the event and arrange refunds for those who have been disappointed by the event,” a spokesperson of the rink wrote in a Facebook-posted statement.

"We’ve listened to your feedback and, we agree, Santa’s Winter Village does not meet the expectations of our customers, the broader community or our team at Colonnades and we apologize for the disappointment and inconvenience this has caused our customers."

Lesson learned: if you want to take your kids out to somewhere fun for Christmas, do it early in December. And the place has to be of high quality, good, clean fun. As for theme parks, I strongly suggest reputable ones that open in the holiday season.

"(Lapland New Forest owner Henry Mears) and the rest of the Lapland gang should give all their disgruntled customers an all-expenses-paid trip to a real amusement park," Amy Sondova concluded on She is Beloved, "That’s right, I’m talking (Walt Disney World) - because despite what Lapland’s tag line says, Disney World is where your dreams really do come true."

But if you really can’t go to a reputable amusement park that hosts those Yuletide offerings, just remember to take those wise words of wisdom to heart:

Oh, there's no place like home for the holidays 'Cause no matter how far away you roam If you want to be happy in a million ways For the holidays You can't beat home, sweet home 

And simply taking a staycation for Christmas surely beats a real-life variation on a theme park any year.

And let’s end this post with a moment of silence for the Osborne Family Spectacle of Dancing Lights at DHS, taken 12/10/2015.

So there was an r/dinosaurs thread (now deleted) where people where airing grievances about the design of Trish from Goodbye Volcano High

People were saying how it's a terrible design for a Triceratops without specifying what makes it bad, and there was one or two comments that said her design looked "LGBT" without specifying what that meant or why that would be a bad design element

I don't mind Trish's design or really any of the Goodbye Volcano High character designs. A good character design should fit the story and the character, and Trish is a girl who attends high school and hangs out with her friends and plays guitar. And her design seems to fit those things very well

But all this talk about anthropomorphic dinosaurs got me thinking if there were any other examples to compare her to. And I could only think of two examples of anthropomorphic Triceratops that wear clothes

B.P. Richfield from Jim Henson's Dinosaurs (identified as a Triceratops in the show but the frill looks like Styracosaurus, another ceratopsian)

And Craig from Dinosaur Office (seen here wearing a sweater from the Thanksgiving episode, though most episodes he wears a collar and tie only)

And while both these characters are rounder and more spiky-looking than Trish, they are also both men with office jobs who are well beyond their high school years.

#character design #triceratops #paleontology #goodbye volcano high #dinosaur office #jim henson dinosaurs #I guess technically Baby Bop from Barney is a triceratops who wears shoes but honestly she's such an abstraction of a dinosaur to me #Baby Bop's like a malformed hippo or something I swear #anthropomorphic #anthro #dinosaurs

acabo de ver família dinossauros q série

como a disney lançou essa série é inacreditável, isso ter passado no Brasil durante ditadura militar me surpreende

com certeza é um marco na minha vida e o início de um interesse por robótica(?) e as produções Jim Henson

pretendo fazer mais fanposts sobre, se for preciso serei eu qm criará edits, gifs, posts extremamente longos e detalhados

Preciso de mais Família Dinossauro

MAIS DOS SILVA SAUROS

inclusive a localização da série é maravilhosa e eleva o texto de uma forma incrível, claro q por outro lado muitas piadas no cenário e nas legendas da tv são perdidas para qm n sabe inglês

há tmb a maior perda na tradução, WeSaySo q vira NosDizemosQueSim (ou ÉIssoAí em um ep) e perde muito do impacto e contexto do nome original, por muitas vezes o nome da impresa n consegue trasmitir o impacto do original

ainda assim é uma dublagem digna de sua época
