It's finally here. It took me ages to make, but I think it's fair to say it's my best edited video so far. God only knows when the next one's due to comes out.
One can definitely see how much you have improved in editing (the Cutter/Leek montage and the Shaun of the Dead reference were my favorites) and critiquing more than just the creatures. I am impressed how much you managed to squeeze into just under 15 minutes. As a non-Brit I also liked the beginning about the producers because I only started to follow the behind the scenes stuff after series 2 was broadcasted.
Thank you, I'm glad you enjoyed it (and caught the SotD reference)! I'm going to try to do more plot and character critique in future, looking back at series 1 I already regret not mentioning a lot of things...
To be fair to the them adding more popular prehistoric animals, most of the episodes still didn't have dinosaurs or very popular creatures. Instead of the classic Woolly mammoth, they picked the more obscured but much larger Columbian mammoth, they added the Eocene crocodillian Pristichampsus which almost no one has heard, they added the odd croc Kaprosuchus which is growing in popularly, is still relativity unknown, and they added and quite a few more. Really, the only big name creatures off the top of my head are Pteranodon, T. rex, Spinosaurus, unnamed species of Terror birds, Giganotosaurus, and Smilodon.
terror birds and giganotosaurus were really only well known to those who grew up with the Walking With series. Also the name Smiliodon isn't really that well known either
Also, theory: What if the Giga from season 3 is a Carcharodontosaurus and the raptors in the series, "morrocoraptor". Morrocoraptor is a poorly known dromaeosaurid from Morroco which is known only from teeth and claws. It would explain why in the African forest we had raptors with spinosaurus in season 4. And also why giganotosaurus heads could be seen at the ending of season 3.
You're seriously trying to rationalize the scientific inaccuracies in a show like Primeval? And what you`re forgetting is an in-universe phenomenon that can actually be used to hand wave any examples of temporal and geographically misplaced wildlife : animals traveling trough anomalies, like the Future Predator entering to live in the Permian in episode 6. And you're also forgetting that in real life there were raptors that coexisted with Giganotosaurus, mainly unenlagiines like Buitreraptor.
Yes they do look the same, which makes it pretty plausible that they were Deinonychus/Utahraptor that went trough an anomaly. The real explanation however is that the makers of the series simply didn't care about accuracy and went "Raptors vs Spinosaurus?! FUCK YEAH!!!" Sumair Ahmer theory doesn't make any more sense, it's just more convoluted and ignoring the obvious explanations.
To be fair I though the raptor was a velociraptor but to be fair I was 12 at the time my knowledge about dinosaurs was limited lol by the way great video keep up the good work can't wait for ep 2
Oh yeah, the review of Season 2 has come. Great review, it was worth the wait. When I fist watxhed it, I was honestly surprised that it took them this long for a Dinosaur to appear, but the Raptors became a series regular after this, so there is that. Can´t wait to see more from you and I have to say that I have never thought of Leek´s and Cutter´s "relationship" in the way you brought it up XD
Wow, Cutter decked a Deinonychus XD I gotta say, while very innacurate, I do love the designs the designs for the Primeval raptors, the striped/counter-shaded look and the blue around the eyes along with the rattle covered back is nice touch and very eye catching, instead of just copycatting Jurassic Park like every other piece of media and making them drab colored, two-legged goannas. And I don't think they have feathers as much as hardened keratinous rattles like the rattleback from The Future Is Wild, I doubt feathers can make rattling sounds.
Dalibor Jovanovic you doubt to much what evolution can do, protofeathers have never really been documented, so who knows if they can actually do that, and feathers would be more likely to fall of then the keratinous ridges (if you don't know what I mean it's in episode 5.3).
And you evidently don't know anything about paleontology. First of protofeathers have been documented in many dinosaur species, we knew of protofeathers on dinosaurs before we knew about penacious feathers on dinosaurs, the former was esentially like fur. And soft fur or feathers can't rattle. The rest of what you said makes no sense. Please don't try to "correct" people when you have no idea what you're talking about. It ain't an insult, it's just helpful advice.
7:00 Well you know that Dromeosaurs like the Dakotaraptors can climb trees to avoid predators or ambush their prey, but they don’t climb on walls like geckos because their claws are designed for climbing trees.
Great review, the wait was worth it!!! This episode is a favorite of mine, but the janitor not dying after having his THROAT CUT OPEN always bothered me when I was young.
7:35 As a kid I always wondered how the baby raptor got in the locker it was one of those mysteries along with the trex from the lost world Jurassic Park Somehow lock itself back in it's crate after eating everyone on board
Really looking forward to this review, as I must confess this is my favorite series so far (haven't seen past series 3 though, but out of the first 3 series, it is, in my opinion, the best). I can't wait to see you tear it apart, if this episode is any indication :D
I do hope you continue your review of this series. It's quite fun and I enjoy hearing your take on these episodes, especially given events and creatures later.
As far as I can tell, at least one of them is based on Utahraptor, making more accurate that the rest which are based on Deinoncys (tell me how it's correctly spelled), but it's there one thing missing, feathers. Otherwise it's more accurate that the rest.
Actually, as I was talking the Uathraptor model from the Isle. But, I'm not so about the JP one. It's a mix of all 3 (It has Velociraptor' name, the skeletal design is from Deinonychus, and the height is from Uathraptor. So, basically it's a Fakoraptor).
6:00 I think the whole Connor brain freeze thing can be disputed by the fact that in this timeline he's probably been doing it for at least a year, so he's a little more used to being chased by creatures.
Awesome! The review was worth the wait! Also, you should have used the clever girl scene when the baby raptor jumped out of the locker, because how could it have figured out which locker the person was going to open, opened the locker, and lock it again from the inside?
1. Thank the Lord you're back! 2. I want to hear your input on some of the creatures that I'm writing, as I am VERY sure that you'd find it interesting. 3. Will you talk about the dinosaur themed seasons of Power Rangers anytime soon? 3.5. Or, at the VERY LEAST, use footage from those seasons?
Edaphosaurus the creatures that I'm writing are Deviants. A Deviant refers to any animal that's more distinctive, specialized, successful, and harder to kill than a normal animal in a given ecosystem. They can come from either Earth or alien planets. Do you think they could exist? If so, what examples from the real world or popular media would you consider to be Deviants?
Glad You're Back Edaph. Just for fun I've been working on rewriting the Primeval episodes for greater accuracy, and you have been very helpful. BTW, for this episode I changed the raptor to Dakotaraptor and had an appearance by Thescalosaurus (One thing I liked about Season 1 was that there was always more than one type of animal).
13:07 Actually, there is a brief scene in 5.5 where Matt explains that every million years or so, the Earth's magnetic poles reverse and the anomalies come into existence to prevent the planet destroying itself, with the cycle culminating in Convergence.
Just a Quick Thing: my Personal Headcanon is that any living thing entering an anomaly slightly destabalizes it, given the number of times it closes JUST after a creature or human uses it.
5:10 would the show of even had the budget to put good feathers on the models? Isn't this why Hesperornis didn't have them? Edit: the baby raptor not having feathers could be like birds not having them.
Well I know that all Dromeosaurs DO have feathers today. I know that Primeval was just a fictional TV show, and, like the Jurassic Park Franchise, it has inaccuracies.
I have a theory on the Permian change thing. So when the Baby Future Predator the fossil was found by Claudia’s dad or mom or ancestor or something and that changed it how.

animalman57 giganotosaurus isn't even a big name animal to general public only to paleo nerds really.
terror birds and giganotosaurus were really only well known to those who grew up with the Walking With series. Also the name Smiliodon isn't really that well known either
OMG OMG OMG
When I saw the notification for this, I had a heart attack!
SAAAAME
Sumair Ahmer I didn't get a notification, but the same thing happened to me when I looked at my subscriptions.
I hope you're ok?!
@@melvinspiegelman6188 why ?
In 1 month, this video will be 2 years old. Hope the next episode review comes soon!

Got that from kingrexy? I AM KINGREXY XD I got it from you in that chat we had on my primeval deinonychus (or morrocoraptor? >:D) drawing.
7:49 Of the JW:E Deinonychus:
‘At least I didn’t think this badboy was a goddamn Guanlong’.
You’re welcome, guys
Rahonavis70m at least a keritwn or fleshy crest is plausible, but that outdarlted skull..
Darn it that's cheating!
If it’s any consolation, it took forever to find that
Rahonavis70m It’s a shot at Bestinslot. I call fowl play. (Geddit, because Deinonychus is a mainaraptorian!)
I remember when this episode came out and little me was so happy to see the raptors
To be fair I though the raptor was a velociraptor but to be fair I was 12 at the time my knowledge about dinosaurs was limited lol by the way great video keep up the good work can't wait for ep 2
Yessss!
Don't forget that Steven owes Connor an iPod when he dies.
Reminder :
Connor asked Stephen for his iPod if he dies.....
S 1 ep 3
You asked for it
Your sarcastic funny comments are brilliant, been waiting for this for ages XD
Finally I love you so mutch!!!!!!!!!!
Look who's back back, back again again, look who's back back, tell a friend
Pls do
These reviews are the best thing on this channel 💯
5:09 the slushy has got to be really, really good to be worth risking your life to drink.
Yay it's back
You honestly seem like a hilarious guy, and I'd love to see more Primeval episode reviews! You've earnt yourself a subscribe!
Oh yeah, the review of Season 2 has come.
Great review, it was worth the wait.

Can´t wait to see more from you and I have to say that I have never thought of Leek´s and Cutter´s "relationship" in the way you brought it up XD
Then again, they'd been calling the synapsids/anapsids/mosasaurs/pterosaurs "Dinosaurs" for ages...
Wow, Cutter decked a Deinonychus XD
I gotta say, while very innacurate, I do love the designs the designs for the Primeval raptors, the striped/counter-shaded look and the blue around the eyes along with the rattle covered back is nice touch and very eye catching, instead of just copycatting Jurassic Park like every other piece of media and making them drab colored, two-legged goannas.

Exactly
Great review, the wait was worth it!!!
This episode is a favorite of mine, but the janitor not dying after having his THROAT CUT OPEN always bothered me when I was young.
It's one thing the janitor surviving, it's another the team not caring about what happened to him!
Cutter was more fixated on his Cretaceous era theropod fetish than the health of a man who got injured by said creature.
It’s great to see you back in action edapho
But the question is will we ever get episode 2?
Come on edaphosaurus, your reviews are quite spectacular, you need to review more of it!
Season 1vs 2 may be argued
but your primeval episodes have improved
7:35 As a kid I always wondered how the baby raptor got in the locker it was one of those mysteries along with the trex from the lost world Jurassic Park Somehow lock itself back in it's crate after eating everyone on board
Memes, dinosaurs, sarcasm, I’m in heaven!
Really looking forward to this review, as I must confess this is my favorite series so far (haven't seen past series 3 though, but out of the first 3 series, it is, in my opinion, the best). I can't wait to see you tear it apart, if this episode is any indication :D
also, I only just realized there was not one non-avian dinosaur in the entire first series. huh
I do hope you continue your review of this series. It's quite fun and I enjoy hearing your take on these episodes, especially given events and creatures later.
I really like your Primeval reviews,hope you continue making them in the future.
This is awesome mate.
Never stop with the Nigel Marvin jokes, those are amazing!
Just found your channel
Loved it!
keep up your great work!
Thank you!
10:06 I read on the website that the males have a higher metabolism than the females. Maybe that could be it?
Maybe, not sure that makes any scientific sense though
Edaphosaurus from what I read, it meant that they can metabolize the tranquilizer fluid in less time.
Was hoping you would do this. Love primeval and your reviews.
As far as I can tell, at least one of them is based on Utahraptor, making more accurate that the rest which are based on Deinoncys (tell me how it's correctly spelled), but it's there one thing missing, feathers. Otherwise it's more accurate that the rest.
People said that the "Big one" in JP was a Utahraptor and the others were Deinonychus, it's possible that's what you were thinking of?
Edaphosaurus A finaly the episode of my favorite family of dinosaurs and yea the raptors are not realistic but they look cool to the averge tv wacher.
Actually, as I was talking the Uathraptor model from the Isle. But, I'm not so about the JP one. It's a mix of all 3 (It has Velociraptor' name, the skeletal design is from Deinonychus, and the height is from Uathraptor. So, basically it's a Fakoraptor).
YES I'm so happy this is here
YES!!!!!!!!
6:00 I think the whole Connor brain freeze thing can be disputed by the fact that in this timeline he's probably been doing it for at least a year, so he's a little more used to being chased by creatures.
The glorious return!
4 years later I don’t care KEEP REVIEWING PRIMEVAL
Finally!!!!!!!!!!!
FINALLY
I wish you continued this series
Best bloody design in the show.
YES!! It's finally here!😁
You're a fake genus.
Awesome! The review was worth the wait! Also, you should have used the clever girl scene when the baby raptor jumped out of the locker, because how could it have figured out which locker the person was going to open, opened the locker, and lock it again from the inside?
True, then again there's plenty more raptor episodes to go...
True, I just thought that joke would have been good for that scene...
Finally!!!!!!👍👍👍👍👍
1. Thank the Lord you're back!
2. I want to hear your input on some of the creatures that I'm writing, as I am VERY sure that you'd find it interesting.
3. Will you talk about the dinosaur themed seasons of Power Rangers anytime soon?
3.5. Or, at the VERY LEAST, use footage from those seasons?
1 - Thanks
2 - What sort of creatures
3 - Very unlikely I'm afraid

Yes Finally
Its been a long wait, but boy I'm glad you're back.
Hi I’m just wondering when are you gonna do the episode 2 review
guys, killing the animals could change the past! Proceeds to kill the majority of creatures they come across.
At a guess, the raptor is probably an Achillobator, the size and habitat seem accurate enough.
GIVE THE PEOPLE WHAT THEY WANT AND DESERVE 💯💯💯💯
A gift from the gods
It annoys me so much that Claudia never returns, not mention we never figure out how or why she vanished.
i've watched all your primeval videos in a row and i am looking forward to a follow up
Ive waited this for so long
It's been 3 years
Episode 2 review
W h e n
Yeeees😎
Please have more of these I love them and primeval xx
superb video, I can't wait for the next one - and i'm buzzing for when you review Season Shite (5)
Please carry on with these I love them. Please do more primeval
How realistic is the feather rattling, at least?
Not very, ostriches sort of just flap their feathers rather than rattling them like porcupine quills
Great video man, keep it up
Yes
12:59 So......Is some one going to put that thing on ther wall or something?
NERD Incorporated so would I I even had a whole daydream about it
NERD Incorporated or make a mask with it
13:07 Actually, there is a brief scene in 5.5 where Matt explains that every million years or so, the Earth's magnetic poles reverse and the anomalies come into existence to prevent the planet destroying itself, with the cycle culminating in Convergence.
Plz more love this
Entirely white cast? In england? A country thats majority white wow how'd that happen?
9:48 You have to apreciate a good "schaun of the death" reference
RUclips Cancer and I always appreciate it when people appreciate my references!
y e s
Almost a year later and theres no episode 2 series 2 review...oh well ...
Those raptors look like drumasaurs.
Just a Quick Thing: my Personal Headcanon is that any living thing entering an anomaly slightly destabalizes it, given the number of times it closes JUST after a creature or human uses it.
Pigmanpower that or they are powered entirely by plot convenience...
@@EdaphosaurusThat's the most likely reason honestly, I just thought of this as a decent in universe reason.
Is it possible that you can review more Primeval episodes because those were very fun
wooo new vid
When is the episode 2 review going to come
YES YES YES YES YES YES YES FINALLY
5:10 would the show of even had the budget to put good feathers on the models? Isn't this why Hesperornis didn't have them?
Edit: the baby raptor not having feathers could be like birds not having them.
theferretman21 good point, then again they managed with the dodos
Edaphosaurus forgot their were dodos.
Well I know that all Dromeosaurs DO have feathers today. I know that Primeval was just a fictional TV show, and, like the Jurassic Park Franchise, it has inaccuracies.
This is true, but I'd be failing my duty as a cynical, pedantic critic if I didn't bring them up :P
Are you gonna do all of season 2? Because that’d be great
I have a theory on the Permian change thing. So when the Baby Future Predator the fossil was found by Claudia’s dad or mom or ancestor or something and that changed it how.
0:31 That line is the one, that makes my blood boil! 😤😡
RIP :'(
Aye, where's the other episodes? Have you ditched us?
*Punches*
Don't do that again.
Yay
I subbed for more of these
nice intro
Are you able to more Primeval episodes
Great vdeo edapho
YES
ITS HERE WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO YEAH
Are you going to make more episodes for primeval season two
He had the raptor in there to take to the creature prison.
The way i explained this episode to my friends was that cutter punched a raptor in the face whilst closing an elevator door
That scene was cool
Finally
Where’s the rest your a great reviewer
Connor didn't even drink the slushie! So either it was cut, or he was making a joke
He threw it at the raptor
@@TSP107 yeah I know, but there was no short of him drinking it
0:36 prehistoric park season two. Make It Happen!
1:44 just how hard would that be to do?
Raptor claws are apparently quite fragile, and certainly wouldn't do well going into a hard object at speed
Edaphosaurus what exactly is the upper limit of Raptor claw strength, and how much is required to pierce that bowling ball? Any thoughts?
