DRAGONS: A FANTASY MADE REAL (Animal Planet, TV-G)

For those of us who geeked out debating the science of the Enterprise's food replicators and "Back to the Future Part II's" hoverboards comes this special imagining dragons as real animals.

"Scientists" conduct a CGI-autopsy of a "dragon fossil" to learn how they flew, breathed fire and survived the meteor that killed the dinosaurs. So detailed is this reptilian "War of the Worlds" as it deconstructs the social order of dragons through the ages that narrator Patrick Stewart has to remind us after every commercial break that this isn't real.

Honestly, we're not so sure anymore.
