Ancient Earth: Dinosaurs of the Frozen Continent Season 1: Episode Guide & Ratings

In the first episode, the new expedition to the ice continent of Antarctica begins. Scientists arrive at their camp on Shackleton glacier, located in the Transantarctic mountains, to begin their 6 week long dig.

In this episode we find out how the great discovery in the 1990s of the Cryolophosaurus, dubbed the T-rex of Antarctica, and a 25-foot-long plant eater, the Glacialisaurus, lead to a renewed interest in a continent that was once thought to be largely devoid of life.
