- TriviaDespite the fossil evidence that suggests that the raptor-like dinosaurs were covered (at least partially) with feathers, this show continues to show them with scales, a rather obsolete image nowadays. The animals in question are only shown to have worn feathers on the back of their heads, on their arms, and along their tails, or, in one case, nowhere. According to the creators, this is due to budget issues and technical limitations, although the episodes that focus on mammals did manage to animate the animals with hair.
- GoofsThe show constantly depicted carnivorous dinosaurs with pronated hands (with their palms facing down or back). These animal's were unable to twist their hands this way. Fossil evidence shows they constantly held them with the palms facing inward. To turn their palms downward, they would have had to twist their whole arms.

Horrible, awesomebros-only quote-on-quote "documentary"
OMG, this is the worst dinosaur documentary I have ever seen! This show should have never been produced because of many, many reasons. The dinosaurs are well beyond inaccurate even during the time the series was made: raptors being featherless, theropods having pronated wrists, every dinosaur being shrink-wrapped even when healthy, etc. Not only that, but some of their "dinosaurs" don't have anything like their real counterparts, for example, their depiction of "Pachyrhinosaurus" is shown with a nasal horn like other ceratopsid, when it didn't in real life, and their "Majungatholus" (which was actually Majungasaurus) is shown with highly-developed theropod arms and long hind legs, which is the complete opposite of the real animal. Not only that, but they depict every carnivore as bloodthirsty monsters killing everything and constantly roaring at the top of their lungs every two seconds, and herbivores as canon fodder (being helpless meatsacks) for the predators to eat, which is false in reality (imagine if elephants are predator fodder for foxes... yeah, I know. This is really dumb.) and seems to only appeal toxic awesomebro people and not actual paleontologists. Ceratosaurus, in particular, is also portrayed as a weakling and bullied every time Allosaurus shows up, and that makes me feel really bad for Ceratosaurus (even its design is inaccurate). Not only that, but nearly every carnivore makes really stupid decisions, for example, in Bloodiest Battle episode (a really cringy title), a group of Allosaurus makes a "smart" decision and try to hunt a fully grown healthy Camarasaurus instead of eating the carrion of Ceratosaurus and young Stegosaurus (or even finish off a weakened adult Stegosaurus), and guess what? They get killed by the massive sauropod, such a dumb idea only a completely insane and incompetent animal would do. And finally, this show literally lies to its audience, like stating that "T-Rex had an infectious bite" or "Dromaeosaurus used hand signals to communicate". Ugh, I believe that this is what led to the "Dinosaur Dark Era" of dino documentaries, with almost no good dinosaur documentary until Prehistoric Planet (the best dinosaur documentary of all time, with Walking with Dinosaurs being the second best in my opinion) on Apple TV premiered. I WILL NEVER RECOMMEND JURASSIC FIGHT CLUB, AND IT NEEDS TO BE COMPLETELY FORGOTTEN.
