List of Dinosaurs characters

List of Dinosaurs characters

This article lists characters in the television series "Dinosaurs". This includes major and minor characters.

Most of the dinosaur characters are played by a person in a full-body suit, someone who remotely controls the character's face and head, and another actor who provides the voice.

Main characters

The television show centers on the Sinclair family. Earl is the father of the Sinclair family, so the main characters relationships are given relative to him. The voice actor is the person who would be most-recognized, so this person is listed first. Age is given at the beginning of the first season.

upporting characters

The supporting characters appear in several to many of the episodes.

Minor characters

Other regular cast members are listed in the credits. They play other side characters like:

*Louey Phillips, Ethel's deceased husband who is currently awaiting her in the afterlife and who appears to her in the episode "The Last Temptation of Ethel" lecturing her about life and death and warning her of the "no-so-nice" fate that awaits her if she continues to try and sell the afterlife .
*"Aubrey Molehill", briefly thought to be the real son of the Sinclairs, is identical in appearance to Baby except that he is green in color. It was thought that he was switched before hatching from his egg, but at the end of the episode the scientist discovered that the test results had been switched.
*Gary, a gigantic dinosaur that competes for Fran's affections, and whose eye and legs are the only body parts revealed to the viewer, is identified by Fran as a "50-foot-tall "Dilophosaurus"," which in actuality only grow to be 5 feet tall (at the hip), and 20 feet long. However, upon close inspection the suit used for Gary when he looks into a hole in the ceiling is the same one used for Roy; it is more likely that he is a giant "Tyrannosaurus".
*Mr. Pullman, a purple dinosaur who wears large spectacled glasses, and is Robbie's and Charlene's science teacher. Although seemingly frustrated with his job, he is quick to submit to higher authority, particularly when it comes to government censorship.
*There are many reused side characters in a full body suit with an articulated faces/head include an orange/brown "Ceratosaurus", a generic green "Theropod", a purple "Stenonychosaurus", a tan, turtle-faced dinosaur, and two indistinct females.
*Hand Controlled puppets include Howard Handupme, a type of "Pachycephalosaurus"; a blue "Protoceratops", a green "Ceratopsian", a green, wrinkled theropod with an underbite (which was used to portray Ethel's deceased husband), a red theropod with a prominent chin, a brown-striped Ornithomimid.
*Mammals (food to dinosaurs), pterodactyls, and cavemen are also featured.
*Predator, a large green monster featured on the show "Totally Hidden Predator". This monster was originally name the swamp monster, and was last seen eating a dinosaur at the end of the episode "Terrible Twos".
