Walking With DinosaursWalking with Dinosaurs is a 1999 six-part television series produced by the BBC and narrated by Kenneth Branagh (UK version, BBC) and Avery Brooks (US version, Discovery Channel). The series used computer-generated imagery and animatronics to recreate the life in the Mesozoic, and showed dinosaurs in a way that was only shown before in Jurassic Park, six years earlier. The series was a commercial and scientific success. Dinosaur paleontologists, like Peter Dodson, Peter Larson and James Farlow were scientific advisors. Their influence in the filming process is shown in Walking with Dinosaurs - The Making Of. In a list of the 100 Greatest British Television Programmes drawn up by the British Film Institute in 2000, voted on by industry professionals, Walking With Dinosaurs was placed 72nd. In the same vein, a follow-up to the series was Walking with Beasts, set in the Cenozoic period. This series featured extinct mammals and birds like Indricotherium and Gastornis. The third installment was Walking with Cavemen, a documentary about our ancestors. When Dinosaurs Roamed America (produced by Discovery Channel) is yet another dinosaur CGI documentary.
