The Dinosaurs is now streaming

Netflix Top 10 TV Show Charts, 8th March 2026
Netflix’s Top 10 Series in the UK, 8th March 2026

Finally, The Dinosaurs have been unleashed! The four-part series is now available to stream exclusively on Netflix.

It’s been fantastic to see such an incredibly positive response so far, and the series currently tops Netflix’s TV Show charts, beating even long-standing audience favourites such as Formula 1: Drive to Survive and Bridgerton.

Reviews have also been incredibly encouraging, with a perfect Rotten Tomatoes score of 100%, and critics praising the series for its spectacular CGI and engaging narrative.

Of course, I’m particularly pleased to see that there’s been a lot of love for the final episode as well!

The final episode of The Dinosaurs is where this documentary truly shines; it may be the first one I’ve seen that actually manages to convey the massive scale of destruction and devastation that the asteroid caused, and how its impact changed the world for millennia. It’s all at once awe-inspiring and chilling, showing its true cost and turning it into a personal touchstone that will stay with you long after the credits roll. And that alone makes it worth the watch; The Dinosaurs covers the scope of hundreds of millions of years with ease, yet still pulls at your emotions and love for these fascinating creatures from days long gone by.

A massive thanks to everyone who has taken the time to watch our show.
