DVD Reviews of Dinosaurs - The Complete Third and Fourth SeasonsDVD Review: BRILLIANT SHOW... Where's Baby's Music Video???? Summary: 4 Stars
In all the product info for Season 3/4 of DINOSAURS, including Disney's press releases and their own website, the music video "I'm the Baby Gotta Love Me" is listed as a special added feature... Try to find it. On the actual packaging for the disc, it refers to a featurette called "I'm the Baby, Gotta Love Me" which is a nice bit about the Baby character, but the music video is not included...
I made a call to Disney's DVD department. I was put on hold for a while and then told: "the music video was announced in early publicity as being under consideration as a possible extra, but it was decided to include the featurette instead of the music video." I pointed out that the music video is clearly mentioned on Disney's own website. Their response: "If you'd like a refund or exchange...."
Put on Disc 1 and play an episode called "Little Boy Boo." At the end of the episode is... the music video of Baby Sinclair singing "I'm the Baby." It's a catchy song and the visuals are a lot of fun. This is up to the Henson creative team's usual high standards. However, you can't say the same for the Disney DVD division. There is no chapter stop for the musc video. You have to scan back from the end credits to find it ..
So obviously, there is confusion and miscommunication within Disney's DVD marketing department. They announced the Baby's Music Video as a feature but were quite confused about where it was... or whether it was there at all.
I think the Jim Henson Company's work on DINOSAURS is absolutely brilliant. Smart. clever, thoughtful, great looking and hilarious. Incredibly rich with layers of clever details, DINOSAURS is entertaining on more than one level. The more you watch it, the more you discover. I highly recommend the series itself as top-notch entertainment. I still howl with laughter at the hysterical EXORCIST parody ("The Power of Rice Compels You!") Robby's dalliance in an alternate lifestyle, (to Earl's chagrin - a Vegetarian "Give Peas A Chance") Charlene's falsie tail, The miniseries parody "Nuts To War," TV Commentator Howard Handupme, taking on their own critics in a self-referential bit about a TV show they see, (about which Earl says it's clever and Mom says "it's just puppets!") and the episode about inappropriate language learned on TV, where the baby says "Smoo!" Rarely do you get this much Smart and Funny in the same place with great production values.
Like the Walt Disney company used to, The Jim Henson Company has a reputation for thoughtful attention to detail. The Henson creations deserve better handling than Disney is giving, but then the same could be said of the vintage Disney movie catalog. Disney doesn't do the work justice. I can only hope Disney gets its "smoo" together before they "flark" up another good creation. ; )
Update: interestingly, since I posted this, (like a couple years later) the product description here on Amazon has now been reworked to tell where the Baby's music video is. A little late, but at least (more like at last) someone made the effort to correct the issue.

Description of Dinosaurs - The Complete Third and Fourth SeasonsThey're huge. They?re pre-hysterical. The Sinclairs are back in their final two seasons of Earth-shaking fun as they face the challenges of everyday life in sixty million and three BC. Baby turns two ? and into a total terror. Daddy Earl confronts his "diaperphobia." Charlene?s theory that the world is round lands her in scholastic hot water. Robbie deals with overwhelming pubescent urges, and in the final controversial episode, the family?s jumpin' Jurassic lifestyle gets the big chill. The brainosauraus of Jim Henson, the award-winning comedy series brings state-of-the-art puppetry and audioanimatronics to the screen -- and a whole new meaning to the words "family fun." Add Seasons 3 and 4 to your collection of evolutionary entertainment ? and get ready to rock your funny bones. Includes featurette "I'm the Baby, Gotta Love Me," with music video located at the end of episode five.
