Dinosaur

It's so refreshing to see a show where it's about a character who is autistic, rather than just being about autism. Atypical was great, but very centred around autism - Dinosaur you can watch and forget it's about that.

Here's hoping we see the sorts of personalities filter down into other people's writing so seeing them becomes the new normal.

The show is funny - one of the characters is a little too far as a parody. But most are normal people you might expect to meet. Combined with British/Scottish humor they have it pretty spot on.

Great sound track with the iconic Glasgow Camera Obscura. :)

I really look forward to seeing where they take it if it gets a second season.

Adored this show, it has honest represention of nerodiverse characters which you don't see often on TV. It is quite different to anything I have viewed before which was surprising and delightful. The central character has autism , but it shows so many more layers to her personality . It is brilliantly funny, with unmistakable Scottish humour. I especially liked the side relationship between Nina and her brother, which is mainly about them insulting each other affectionately. The series was short and subtely sweet and leaves you wanting more. Highly talented comedy cast and Glasgow also looking gorgeous.

I came across this by chance on BBC I Player and was curious to watch it. I'm glad I did as it's fast become one of my comfort TV programmes to watch when I need a laugh and gentle viewing. It's a Joy to watch.

It won't have you belly laughing, but that's not a bad thing for me. Its soothing, comforting viewing to me and I feel a lot of people can relate to Nina who aren't Autistic who are rocked by sudden changes to their life's, which aren't always a bad thing.

Really hope the BBC commission more homegrown comedies such as Dinosaur:not everything has to be loud, in your face, controversial comedy, sometimes heartwarming and comforting shows are very much needed.

Very corky characters who all demonstrate positive personal growth through a roller coaster of silly encounters and happenstances. Nina's character is brilliant, she conveys a person with autism so well. All the little things she did through the series just had me chuckling at how often I do the same. It was fun to feel seen in a television show and relate so well to the main character. I hope they continue to make more seasons of the show. I know that's rare these days with so many single season streaming shows but this one really deserves multiple seasons! If nothing else, all the actors deserve more gigs after this.

Is it me? I really just didn't get this television programme. I kind of like that important issues are being raised by the writers but then they make the comedy sound so out of date in a really cringey way. There was literally nothing here that made me laugh out loud. If I'm watching a comedy show I expect a couple of belly laughs at least but they didn't come. A few smiles yes but my overall experience was not a good one. I was a bit disappointed because I really wanted to like the show after seeing trailers for it but I just didnt enjoy it. But it's a new show so it could get better as it progresses but I don't think I'll be watchin it again. Some of the actors were good so that's a plus.
