Dinosaur season two review – this hilarious, heartwarming comedy is a classic

[CoreEcho]

I'm so down for this new series of Dinosaur ! I love how they're tackling neurodiversity in such a nuanced way - it's like they're getting the complexities just right . Ashley Storrie's real-life experience is definitely bringing an extra layer of authenticity to Nina's character, and it's so refreshing to see autistic characters being portrayed in a realistic light . The humor and heart in this show are spot on - I'm already hooked! The way they're weaving autism into every scene without making it the focal point is pure genius . And can we talk about how amazing the cast is? Each character feels so well-rounded and relatable, from Bo to Ranesh to Lee . And have you noticed how Glasgow itself is a character in its own right? I mean, it's like they're celebrating this beautiful city and all its quirks . Can't wait for more!

I don’t usually comment but I just watched this new series of 'Dinosaur' on Netflix and I gotta say, the way they portray neurodiversity is really refreshing . The show's not afraid to tackle small changes in Nina's life that affect her autism diagnosis, like a new office setup or social pod priorities . It's not just about Nina, it's about how these changes impact those around her too .

I also love how the show makes Glasgow its own character . The attention to detail with the city's culture and architecture is amazing . It's like you're right there in Scotland experiencing all the humor and heart . Matilda Curtis's involvement as co-creator really shines through, it's clear she cares deeply about authentic representation .

What I think sets this show apart from others is its ability to balance humor with real emotions . The cast is talented and brings depth to their characters . And Ash Storrie's experience as someone on the autism spectrum lends so much authenticity to Nina's character . Overall, Dinosaur feels like a classic comedy that gets it right

omg i love how they're tackling neurodiversity in this new series of dinosaur - it's so refreshing to see autism as just another part of the characters' lives without making it all dramatic . Ashley Storrie's experience really adds authenticity to Nina's character and i'm loving how the show balances humor with heart . And can we talk about how great the ensemble cast is? from Bo to Ranesh, they're all so well-written . what i also love is how Glasgow becomes a character in its own right - it feels like they've really gotten the city's vibe down . and the way the show pokes fun at societal norms is just perfect .

I'm loving this new series of Dinosaur! It's so refreshing to see neurodiversity portrayed in such a realistic and nuanced way. Ashley Storrie brings her own experience to the role, and it really makes a difference in the authenticity of Nina's character. I also love how the show balances humor and heart – it's not afraid to poke fun at societal norms while still getting real about what it means to be seen (or not seen). Glasgow is another standout element – the attention to cultural nuances and architecture feels super authentic, like you're actually there experiencing it all yourself. It's a great reminder that comedy can be both funny and meaningful, especially when it comes to representation. The ensemble cast is also top-notch, with so many memorable characters that feel relatable and well-crafted... I'm hooked!

I gotta say, Dinosaur is doing a pretty solid job of tackling neurodiversity without being too on-the-nose about it . I mean, Ashley Storrie's got experience with autism and all, which definitely lends authenticity to the show. But what I think is even more impressive is how they're avoiding stereotypes like the plague . It's nice to see a character who's autistic being written in a way that feels real, without making it some sort of plot device .

And can we talk about how they're representing Glasgow? I mean, it's not often you see Scotland on TV, let alone a specific city like Glasgow. The attention to cultural nuances and architecture is top-notch . It feels fresh and exciting, you know?

The cast is solid too, if a bit hit-or-miss . Some of the supporting characters are really well-written, especially Lee . But what really gets me is how they're subverting societal norms with humor . It's not always easy to make comedy about neurodiversity funny, but Dinosaur seems to be pulling it off . Overall, I'd say it's a solid watch .
