What Season 1 of Dinosaurs

The Sinclairs are a family of anthropomorphic dinosaurs living in 60,000,003 BC in Pangea, with a life very much like that of the American middle class in the 1990s. They have TV sets and home appliances. Earl pushes trees for the Wesayso company alongside his friend Roy Hess, under the watchful eye of his boss, Bradley P. Richfield. At home, he's joined by his wife Fran, their three kids, and his mother-in-law Ethyl. The series follows their everyday worries, from Earl's job to raising the kids. Fran feels neglected after the birth of their third child, and Robbie rebels against the tradition of the howl.
