I saw a T-Rex! Yesterday was the big Walking With Dinosaurs show! It was awesome! And it sucked! [More:]
The dinosaurs themselves were absolutely amazing. They were incredibly impressive. The "show" part of the show, however, was abyssmal. The script was cringe-worthy. The staging was awful. The set pieces in the center of the stage meant that at any given point in time, half the audience couldn't see anything.

But no one cared, because we saw brachiosauruses who reached all the way up to the top of the stadium. When the tyrannosaurus came out, we whooped and hollered like he was the headliner at a rock concert. And the smile on my daughter's face was so full of joy and awe that I got choked up whenever I looked at her.

It's the worst show you should ever make an effort to see.

I love those parenting payback moments.

My daughter REALLY wants to see it! Any UK tour coming?

I don't know, chuck. The North American tour just started and it's supposed to last two years, so it may be awhile before it makes it over there.

Yeah.

I just learned about the show in a recent Newsweek article: 'The T. Rex Tour.'

Bummer, the show isn't coming to Florida.

I watched the pilot and (15 minutes) of the series finale of 'John Of Cincinnati' || Minor forgery--why isn't there more of it?
