"Primal" is the latest creation from Genndy Tartakovsky, the creator of Samurai Jack, Dexter's Lab, and so many other great shows.
Primal features a caveman at the dawn of evolution. A dinosaur on the brink of extinction. Bonded by tragedy, this unlikely friendship becomes the only hope of survival in a violent, primordial world.

Alrighty so I just started watching, finished the mammoth episode (episode 3)
And it irritates me.
If those mammoths genuinely cared about the old one, wouldn't they have paid more attention and noticed how far the old one fell behind? You'd think they would make sure, but they didn't, then got pissed when they found his body. Like bro, you didn't even notice he was gone till you saw his body, you have no right to be pissed off at that point XD
Interesting show, though, found it through instagram reels. Feel free to comment your POV on that episode.
Spear or Fang or Mira get Infected by the plague of madness >:)
I mean we saw Spear show some sense of.comcern during a moment but I felt nothing but siding with slaves and Spear and Fang
That my Question
As you know Dynamite Entertainment is doing comics based on Warner Brothers Discovery IP'S current Comics are Thundercats, Space Ghost, Jonny Quest and Power Puff Girls with more comic titles releasing in 2025
So with that in mind how Would you like to see Comics set in the World of Primal since Season 2 there very little gaps between episodes the comic would be mostly set during the events of Season one seeing Spear and Fang adventures between Adventures
For writer I go for Jim Zub who wrote IDW Samurai Jack Comics with art by artists who previously did Samurai Jack Comics probably it would be 12 issue comic Mixseries
What do you think?
In S1E4 "terror under the blood moon" the giant bats and giant spider have a symbiotic relationship. The bats bring food to the spider and even go after Spear and Fang after they kill the spider. But what do the bats get out of this relationship? Protection? Their clearly a large group of successful predators that are feared in the area, I don't think they have any other predators or much of a competition. Is it so the bats can live in the cave/tower? We don't see much of the surrounding area but I'm assuming if needed the bats can find somewhere else to live? My best guess is that the bats bring food to the spider in return the spider won't eat any of the bats, but still the bats are large in numbers and work very well together
genuine question. I always thought it was dumb how Spear died like a normal ass person even after they hyped up the Moon Goddess and also the dozens of confirmations that the supernatural/magic exists. I think it'd be really stupid if they never did anything with it
I personally can totally see the new season being about Spears children inadvertently uncovering a way to bring him back, and that being the main plot. MAYBE his/Fang's family against the fire giant too but atp its getting a bit over-the-top. I'm curious to what yall think tho
And I truly love the show. A masterpiece. Can't wait for season 3. That being said, the ending felt kinda weird and rushed. Like, I know Spear don't get tired and could probably get it on for Mira while at deaths door, but it came (pun intended) off kinda weird. Would've rather they had some sort of romantic encounter prior to angry viking bro showing up. Similar to Fang and Red Fang. And if Spear is going to die, some serious build up and foreshadowing would've been nice.
Thoughts?
Not looking to bash the series. As I said I absolutely love it. I think my favorite episode is Coven of the Damned.
“Spear and Fang were meant to be the villains after the Red Mist” “I was rooting for the Vikings, they should have been the protagonists” “The no dialogue is the worst thing about Primal” “Primal is only about the violence, there’s nothing else to it”
I l9ve primal abd i want more people to watch it. But whenever I explain what it's about it's usually along the lines of
A cave msn and a t rex firm a bond through tragedy abd help eachother to survive
Which I'm afraid it sounds like a cave man abd a t rex become freinds
Any recommendations?
Sitting down with great anticipation for a new season from one of my favorite artists…
Rewatching from scratch. End of episode one. The very end. We get a scene on the beach
Now I just rewatched the episode again… and still the scene on the beach is overflowing with emotion. Shock. Fear. Sadness…but I want to know what others think about the moment when the Dino drops her head and He pulls a strong look up to the sky… with a grin. What’s He thinking right there?
It cuts to Him riding her Bursting out of the Ocean, spear raised high…
but I want to hear other peoples thoughts on what that grin meant. What do you think was He thinking/feeling in that shot??
I draw this fanart sometime Ago, and i deicide share here. Hope everyone like It 😎
I'm on episode 5 and I just gotta say FANG IS A VERY GOOD GORL. She reminds me of my dog
I know a lot of the episodes, especially season 1, could fit into it as to quote a youtuber "Primal is the hallmark of miss me with that bullshit," but it came out right before halloween so I cons8der it the Halloween episode
Probably was asked to nausea, but I wondered what the viking slavers exactly used their slaves for given they don't seem to practice agricolture and in the viking chieftain flashback his wife seemed to cook food by herself, like they didn't have servants around the hut doing the chores for them. Do they just keep them locked in the barn until they sold these people off somewhere else. Also what do you think Mira life was like during her time of captivity, like what do you think might have happened to her apart from being branded as we see?
I want to see how the dinosaurs adjusted to the village life, how the daughters childhood is like with what amounts to dinosaur half siblings.
I know that Primal don't have any of Halloween episode. I picked few episodes that are spooky and perfect for the spooky month. Episodes 7 : Plague of Madness and Episode 8: Coven of the Damned. Anyone who picks more episodes are perfect for the spooky month?
