That's probably the darkest finale to a family sitcom that I've ever seen.

I haven't watched it since I was a kid in the 90s but I remember really liking it. I also liked Flintstones so it was similar enough.

Extremely. The show seems to have a children's aesthetic, yet the dialogue is unquestionably sharp edged, witty and thematically skewed to adults.

No but I remember Dinosaurs

Top tier show, amazing how relevant a lot of its messages are today. I gotta get the NECA figures and put them with the old Palisades Muppets.

Ironically, you are a wax fruits consumer, show-wise.

Well, you didn't know better. And frankly, after all the geo-engineering attempts they made in the final episode, you can't be blamed. Some of their effects make even theoretical effects of atmospheric sulphur pumping look tame.

I remember the War episode when the TV announcer says the combatants will start using sticks, and the dinosaur mother freaked out and say "what if someone gets blind?", while the viewer knows that the war actually much worse than they show on TV.

That show was really ahead of its time. It was pretty anti-conservative. Questioned tradition, patriarchy, pushed environmental themes, mental health, drugs in school, feminism, and a lot of other things.

If they were walking around full-bodied, they were people in costumes. If they stayed in place or had most of their bodies obscured by something they were puppets. The baby was a puppet. Gotta love him!

Thanks. I was wondering if it was available anywhere.

I loved the baby. He was my favorite. But I was also quite young and that shit worked on me.

I imagine the baby was a puppet and the adults were costumes. I also am just going off of what I remember so if im wrong someone can correct me.

They were full foam like costumes with animatronic puppeteering operated by someone off camera for the faces and such. Same kind of setup with the old TMNT movies that were also done by Henson.

The baby and the some of the stationaries were full animatronic/puppet. Not even sure if that one long necked one in the window even had a body.

Yeah, it was a great show. I seem to remember one with Robbie dating a plant eater or something, and it being about bigotry or whatever. May give it a watch since someone said it's all on Disney.

About the only other weirdly dark/depressing sitcom finale that I can think of that would compare to this is Roseanne's (the original, not the sequel/reboot show) where it turns out that the husband has been dead for a while and a lot of the previous episodes were just her writing stories in her book.
