Animal Armageddon/YMMV


 * Crowning Music of Awesome: See here (skip to 1:30)
 * Nightmare Fuel: Arguably.
 * Several of the Badass creatures, not to mention the extinctions that wipe them out.
 * Special Effects Failure: One of the most common complaints people have against the series. The animal restorations are ugly as sin, and the graphics in general look as if they had been taken from a video game. The animals themselves come from a prehistoric Uncanny Valley. Walking With Dinosaurs this ain't.
 * Tear Jerker: Several of the creature's sad fates in the face of extinction definitely qualify.
 * One episode has one of the last two Tyrannosaurus Rexes kill and eat the other, his brother, then it cuts to him some days later, trying desperately to stay on his feet, knowing if he falls, he's never getting up again. Anybody else flash back to the horse from The Neverending Story?
 * I believe it was his mate, not his brother.
 * Uncanny Valley: Goes hand in hand with the Special Effects Failure.
 * Visual Effects of Awesome: The recreations of Earth itself and the scenes without any living things. Also, the show's rendition of Quetzalcoatlus is very nice.
