Korg 70,000 B.C. - Screens 120

Today we’re reviewing Korg 70,000 B.C. (1974), a children’s TV series about a Neanderthal family from Hanna-Barbera, creators of The Flintstones, Scooby-Doo, and more. Unlike those series, however, this one is live-action! Who knew? Anyway, we talk about a lot of academic papers about Neanderthals, because nothing happens in the episode we watched.LinksWatch Korg on the Internet ArchiveCave lionsCaspian tigersPaleoloxodonPhylogenetic treesCalifornia WoodpeckersUK woodpeckersShanidar 1Trinkaus et al.
