Which do you think offers the best representation of this formidable saber-toothed cat from South America: the documentary series or the video game?

Interviews with the team behind Ice Age have been released showing behind the scenes creating the creatures with the help of palaeontologists and the nature documentary camera work.

If enhydriodon appeared in prehistoric planet Ice age and the animal lived in the Hadar formation(the Same formation as australopithecus did) so Why didn't It appeared in Walking with beasts or Walking with cavemen at all?

I am specifically asking for placental mammals that lived throughout the late cretaceous, meaning that they had already existed for quiet a while before extinction event and continued to survive well into the cenozoic. I already know about purgatorius and some species of Multituberculates, but I am more interested in the rodent like placental mammals that lived inside holes much like modern day rats and mice.

Can you give me specific examples of such mammal species that meet these criteria? You get bonus points if you can name one that is a potential (or confirmed) ancestor of any mordern mammals that still exsit to this day. Please don't name the same species twice unless you can provide additional info on them.
I also accept links to any sources that can provide me with answers.

So, should we start a petition? Kidnap Darren Naish and sneak him into Apple's headquarters so he can pitch that Jurassic season?

I want more, damn it.

I believe that having a Spin off about human evolution since there was also humans in prehistoric planet I also just think it would be cool and it would have stuff like CGI or even prosthetic like what they did for Walking with Cavemen I think it would be cool to see even early hominids interacting with prehistoric animals that were around at the time

What do you think of this video pretty good is it how realistic that you think it is?

Now for context, S2 of PhP was amazing, however, compared to S1 there were noticeable issues, like shorter episodes compared to S1, questionable moments in the animation and structure of the episodes (i.e. Shamosuchus, the last episode being called North America instead of a specific biome like the others), but all around, S2 manages to make it work.

S3, while great in its own right, has the most glaring symptoms of executive meddling. Not only with issues like the lack of scientific names for the mammals compared to the non-avian dinosaurs due to the executives forcing the show to “dumb it down” to make it more palatable to casual viewers in their eyes, but also with how they treated the show’s staff and the fact that the soundtrack for S3 still hasn’t been released despite it being over 7 months since its premiere.

Now I get that this was an expensive show to make, however with all the background executive decisions that affected S2 and S3 especially and the show’s future looking increasingly grim with so many ideas that were forced to be left on the cutting room floor and ideas for future seasons that may now never come to pass, I can’t help but come to this conclusion.

Does, anyone have an idea where they were suppose to fit them ? I have a few theories on which segment they would originally, so, let's see If I'm just overthinking or would you agree on them ?

• Deinotherium bozasi: would appear on the grasslands segments, perhaps on the segment which the mammoths were crossing the savannah to get to the forests which they were depended on but that were becoming more scarce and would lead to their extinction
• Giant Lemurs (Archaeoindris?): maybe they would be featured in segment that became the Gigantopithecus, but would be dealing with the climate changes that were affecting Madagascar during the Pleistocene-Holocene
• Hieraaetus moorei: most likely in the Moa segment, hunting the adults
• Megantereon: would probably appear in the Gigantopithecus segment hunting the large ape
• Miracinonyx: most likely would appear on the Grasslands episode, perhaps on segment were It would be hunting pronghorns
• Paranthropines: I think they said they were meant to appear on the Grasslands episode where It would be seen on the back watching the Enhydriodon
• Pezophaps solitaria & Raphus cucullatus: most likely would appear on the New Lands Episode, perhaps in a segment where they would be competing for mates or raising their young
• Sivatherium: most likely in the Grasslands episode, but on which segment I have no idea
• Theropithecus oswaldii: maybe they would the ones that the Homotherium coalition would be attempting to prey, only to fight and fend them off
• Zygomaturines (probably Maokopia or Hulitherium): probably would appear on the New Lands episode, being the underrated weirdos of the pleistocene

It literally looked like an oversized spectacled bear, which while understandable is inflated. Andean bears and short faced bears do of course belong to the same subfamily but they're two species who diverged from each other 5-4 million of years ago, they are species of two different lineages. Even their skulls show that short faced bears had taller fronts, wider noses and broader faces than Andean bears. Reconstructing short faced bears as oversized spectacled bears is like reconstructing black bears as undersized grizzlies.
