"Gotta love me!"
Baby Sinclair is the youngest member of the Sinclair family in the television series Dinosaurs. Newly hatched in the premiere episode, "The Mighty Megalosaurus," Baby Sinclair is a precocious if bratty child. His catchphrases include "I'm the baby, gotta love me!" and "Not the mama!" The latter is often uttered to his dad, Earl Sinclair, whom the baby repeatedly batters with a frying pan, and generally disdains, especially in the early episodes, though they form a slightly warmer relationship over time. The baby's relationship with mother Fran Sinclair is more stable and mutually affectionate, but the dinosaur child's wisecracks are also aimed at siblings Robbie and Charlene. Grandmother Ethyl often reads to the child, the pair both rejoicing in Earl's many blunders.
Never formally named until near the end of the second season, the infant Sinclair is briefly named "Augh Augh I'm Dying You Idiot," the result of the then-Chief Elder keeling over during the official christening. By episode's end, he has been legally named "Baby Sinclair."
Notes
As a hand puppet creation and the smallest member of the show's core regular cast, the character was portrayed by Kevin Clash, with eyes by John Kennedy, and arms by Terri Harden (replaced by Julianne Buescher for the final season). Clash's voice for Baby at times resembled a more gleefully destructive Elmo. Baby Sinclair was also the most heavily marketed of the show's characters, featuring in assorted toys, Happy Meal prizes, and a music video featuring the song "I'm The Baby, Gotta Love Me". He also appeared in the cover art for most of the Dinosaurs video releases.
