** The ominous fact that this DownerEnding was foreshadowed ''from the first line of the first episode'' when Howard reported that an asteroid due to collide with Earth was going to miss. Nature doesn't kill the dinosaurs like it did in the real world... the ''dinosaurs'' are fated to cause their own demise.

** Even worse when you consider the implication. The dinosaurs in the show live in a society very similar to our own in most regards, which the show uses for satire constantly...And the show ends with their greed destroying themselves and setting civilization back a million years. What does that mean about US?

* The setting itself. No matter how civilized the dinosaurs were, they still lived in a CrapsackWorld, where the oldest and bigger ones mistreated or killed the weakest one with no remorse for petty reasons or because of rules that were laughable nonsense at best, or cruel perversion of an understandable one at worst. They even ate creatures who had shown some degree of sentience. Furthermore, they cared nothing but for themselves, brainwashing spineless and naive dinosaurs and destroying their own land for greed, which would eventually lead to their downfall in the finale.

* The ending, "Changing Nature", is potentially the most foreboding sitcom finale ever made. As WESAYSO's actions have led to the start of the ice age, there's nothing anyone can do but wait to die, and the situation is played DEAD SERIOUS with nary a shred of comedy(sans one quick joke where Stan tries to seduce Charline only for the latter to whack him in the face). The only survivors of this disaster will be the mammals, the cave people, and any animal that made it to the present, all of which are too primal to restart civilization until probably centuries, if not more, pass by.
