I stumbled upon this the other night whilst trying to find something half decent to watch on Sky.
The story line is fairly simply, for those that don't know it's about a group of explorers who are stuck in a world of dinosaurs, etc and who are trying to find their way home. This episode featured werewolves.
As the group are walking through the woods, one of their number, Malone, is slashed by some kind of animal. In his panic he starts shooting wildly and when they go to investigate whether or not they have hit anything they come across Danu, one of thew natives whose been shot. They take him back to their treehouse and there he warns them about the terrible beast lurking in the woods.
To cut a long story short it turns out Danu is the werewolf (shocker!) and there is a whole colony of werewolves lurking in somewhere called The Valley of the Shadows. Malone also transforms into a werewolf but is saved by one of the scientists in his team who uses an injections of silver nitrate in some form or another. Danu is killed by the native girl who is friends with the group.
It's all pretty standard stuff. In this the werewolves are bipeds and reseamble the wolf man only hairer and they can only be killed by silver or fire.

I remember seeing a bit of that show when it first started, but wasn't keen on it. Prefered the original film (and to an extent the remake) over the series, so never got into watching it. Nice that they did a werewolf episode. Though no idea how a supernatural being fits into their world setting of dinosaurs - one would think they'd have been satisfied with just the Dinosaurs, I guess Dinosaurs are just not the draw they used to be

I guess Dinosaurs are just not the draw they used to be Well how many times can you have someone nearly eaten by a big reptile anyway?

482 times. On the 483rd they have to let the big reptile eat them, or it'll starve.
