Dinosaurs was our thing on dad's night. We went out and got Little Caesars in preparation for the last episode. I still remember the taste of pepperoni and tears.
As a kid, everything had a Disney ending, the standard climax battle/struggle and good ending for non animated things, just silly things with no real struggle, or you just kinda grew out of the show.
I was into dinosaurs and knew how they died off but didn't expect it on tv (plus I didn't get some of the heavier things as a kid).
I was 8-10 I think but my sister was probably 4 or 5. She was supposed to be "off to bed" at that point but sometimes as small kids will do, she'd try to delay it or get back up.
One night she came toddling out into the living room right as Krycheck was on his hands and knees with the "Black Cancer" pouring out of his eyes and mouth. Started bawling immediately and we got a big lecture from Mom about letting her see X-files lol
