All five members of the prehistoric Sinclair family are here: Earl, Fran, Robbie, Charlene, and Baby Sinclair. Their Pop figures have been unveiled in a new tweet from the official Funko account on Twitter, and one look at the image will have you literally hearing, “Not the mama!” in your mind. You can take a look at the reveal tweet below.
Dinosaursran on ABC from 1991 to 1993, ultimately lasting four seasons and airing 65 total episodes. Developed for television by Michael Jacobs and Bob Young, the series was conceived by the late Jim Henson before his death, with theMuppetscreator envisioning a sitcom about a family of dinosaurs. Though Henson passed away before the series premiered, Henson team member Kirk Thatcher would design dinosaur characters. The series featured the voice talents of Stuart Pankin (Earl), Jessica Walter (Fran), Jason Willinger (Robbie), Sally Struthers (Charlene), and Kevin Clash (Baby Sinclair). Chris Meloni, Sherman Helmsley, Florence Stanley, Sam McMurray, and Suzie Plakson also starred.
Set in Pangaea and picking up in the year 60,000,003 B.C.,Dinosaursfollows the Sinclairs - a group of literal dinosaurs who are otherwise like your normal sitcom family. At the height of the show’s popularity, Baby Sinclair had become one of pop culture’s most recognizable figures with his “Not the mama!” catch phrase brandished on countless forms of merchandise. Although the series was a lot of fun and thinking about it can bring back lots of nostalgic memories, the show is also known for having one of the darkest series finales to any sitcom, ever. For those curious, the show ends with Earl inadvertently creating a nuclear winter, killing all life on the planet and explaining how the dinosaurs went extinct.
