Production


The series was commissioned in 2022 by BBC Three, BBC Scotland, and Hulu. It was produced by Two Brothers in association with All3Media and created by Matilda Curtis and Ashley Storrie from an original idea by Curtis. It had Niamh McKeown as director and Brian Coffey as producer. In May 2023, American streaming service Hulu co-commissioned the series.
Storrie has said playing the role of Nina, a young autistic woman, has helped her in certain ways with her own autism diagnosis. Storrie, speaking in 2024 said it was a liberating experience playing the role of Nina: "The good thing about being Nina is she’s an unmasked autistic person so a lot of the things that take a lot of pressure for me to do every day, to just behave like a normal person, I didn’t have to do. It was good for the brief time we filmed Dinosaur, and that was so nice,” she says.
A second series was commissioned in November 2024.

Reception


Jack Seale in The Guardian gave the show four stars and wrote "This spiky and heartfelt comedy might be powered by the lead character’s autism, but it’s not defined by it. It gives people with the condition a long overdue voice".
In 2024, the series was nominated for four BAFTA Scotland awards. Curtis and Storrie won the award for best writers. After its award success, Dinosaur was recommissioned for a second series.
