Didja Notice?
Right at the very opening of the episode (after the theme song,
1:11 on the DVD), at least 3 ankylosaurs are visible in the
swamp.
Also visible in the bottom left corner of the screen is
what appears to be a Postosuchus crawling from the
water.

When Will and Holly are talking while pulling the shopping cart,
Will mentions that their father thinks the Land is a place where
things from all of time and space have landed. Holly asks if
they will find their lost toys here, she lost a doll once. The
radio show and subsequent
illustrated children's book of the 1940's, Land of
the Lost, is about a boy and girl who travel to a land
(under the sea) where all lost things eventually arrive. The
girl in the story finds her lost doll there. (See the
Wikipedia entry.) There was also a comic book series.
