Although Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous and Jurassic World: Chaos Theory are animated programs aimed mainly at children (Chaos Theory not so much), both are impressively full of action and compelling plots. Both shows fall under the Jurassic Park schedule and, according to the greatest franchise, both Cretaceous Camp and Chaos Theory feature star-studded casts. Cretaceous Camp in particular includes important actors such as Jenna Ortega, Glen Powell and Stephanie Beatriz.
Cretaceous Camp is chronologically the first between the two shows and follows the stories of teenagers Darius, Brooklynn, Yaz, Sammy, Ben and Kenji as they become stranded on Isla Nublar and must survive on their own, alongside various dinosaurs. Chaos Theory continues the story of Cretaceous Campalthough there is a six-year time jump between the two shows, meaning the teenage protagonists are now adults. With Chaos Theory third season still in question, here are all 7 seasons of Cretaceous Camp and Chaos TheoryRanked from worst to best.

Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 1
Camp Cretaceous Season 1 Had Significant Ground to Cover
Although Cretaceous Camp the first season wasn’t ‘bad’ by any means, it has to come in last place when compared to the other seasons of the shows, simply because it’s mostly exposition. Unlike the other seasons, even the first season of Chaos Theory, Cretaceous Camp had a lot of ground to cover in terms of setting the stage for the show. In truth, just the need to introduce and flesh out 6 main characters, let alone have them all form relationships with each other, took time.
Because of this, season 1 of Cretaceous Camp It can feel a little slow at times. Of course, the season speeds up considerably when the 6 teenagers end up stranded on the island and realize they must fend for themselves and when they begin to face direct threats from the dinosaurs. Still, considering how gripping many of the other seasons of both shows are, Cretaceous Camp season 1 is the weakest overall.

Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 2
Much of the second season was focused on the imprisoned children
2nd season of Cretaceous Camp it was a step up from the first season in terms of overall action and adventure. This season mainly focused on the six teenagers struggling to stay alive and survive on Nublar, which often saw them in danger from the predatory dinosaurs that stalked the island. This also meant that 2nd season of Cretaceous Camp was one of the best seasons of both shows in terms of the number of dinosaurs shown.
2nd season of Cretaceous Camp it was a step up from the first season in terms of overall action and adventure.
This season featured a wide variety of dinosaurs, including several sightings of the well-known Tyrannosaurus rex, as well as encounters with the terrifying Carnotaurus. However, not all dinosaurs were a threat to children, and many herbivores, including Stegosaurus and Brachiosaurus, were also seen on the island. Despite the excitement of the dinosaurs, season 2 had a bit of a problem with feeling repetitive. As the plot involved the teenagers being arrested, it was easy to feel like there were redundancies.

Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 5
Camp Cretaceous Season 5 concluded the beloved show
Cretaceous Camp Season 5 was the show’s emotional conclusion, and while it saw the six teens finally return home, it didn’t come without obstacles. In truth, Cretaceous Camp season 5 managed to introduce new emotional stakes by revealing that Kenji’s own father, Daniel Kon, was the main antagonist. For a brief time, it looked like Kenji would join his father and betray his friends, which was a particularly heartbreaking possibility considering Kenji and Brooklynn developed a genuinely precious romantic relationship in Season 4.
In the end, thankfully, Kenji didn’t side with his father, but stuck with his friends and prioritized saving the dinosaurs over his family ties. Cretaceous Camp season 5 also ends with an epilogue set approximately 2 years after the show’s conclusion and reveals where each of the six teenagers ended up when they returned home. While this was a successful conclusion and wrapped things up nicely, the season still didn’t make it to the top of the list, in part because it had a lot more plot and a lot fewer dinosaurs.

Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 4
Camp Cretaceous Season 4 Was Packed With Big Subjects
Cretaceous Camp ironically, I saw the kids trapped on another island that was home to several dinosaurs, but it managed to avoid feeling like a recycled plot. This was partly because Cretaceous Camp season 4 handled complex, heavy subjects with respect and grace. This was perhaps most notable in Yaz’s character development. Throughout the season, Yaz struggled with nightmares because of everything she had experienced, and it became clear that she was suffering from something like panic attacks at various points.
In addition to presenting mental health in a realistic and thoughtful way, Cretaceous Camp Season 4 introduced one of the most terrifying villains in the entire series: Kash D. Langford. Kash was not only forcing dinosaurs to fight to the death without remorse, but he also tried to kill Dr. Mae Turner, and seemed ready to kill Darius – a child – multiple times. However, that same storyline saw Darius actually taking control in a satisfying way.
Darius courageously threw himself into danger to save the dinosaurs and his friends, remaining by Kash’s side even when his behavior was so threatening. He managed to survive by deceiving and manipulating Kash at every turn. This made the 4th season of Cretaceous Camp perhaps Darius’ best in terms of character development. This season also saw Darius making contact with his older brother, which in turn (heartbreakingly) revealed that the children’s families believed them to be dead.

Jurassic World: Chaos Theory, season 1
Chaos Theory Season 1 Has a Series of Shocking Twists
There was a six-year time jump between Cretaceous Camp and Chaos Theorywhich led to some major updates between the two shows. In truth, As the main characters aged, the tone of the show also matured, becoming a bit darker and heavier than Cretaceous Campwhich was much more suitable for children. Much of Cretaceous Camp focused on what happened to Brooklynn, as she was presumed dead throughout the season. Even the Chaos Theory The trailer heavily suggested that Brooklynn was dead.
Viewers were also much more willing to accept this possibility because Jenna Ortega, who voiced Brooklynn throughout the film Cretaceous Camphad moved away Chaos Theoryprobably because she’s become a much bigger name since starting on that show. This made it seem even more likely that Chaos Theory had killed Brooklynn – which not only solved the problem, but also gave the Nublar Six, as they became known, a reason to get back together. Surprisingly, it was revealed that Brooklynn narrowly escaped death.
Instead, it was revealed that Brooklynn narrowly escaped death.
There was an attack on Brooklynn’s life because she was researching illegal dinosaur salesand when he managed to escape with his life, he decided to hide, both for his own safety and for the safety of his friends and loved ones. The only disappointing aspect of this was Brooklynn’s choice to deceive her friends. Although she had the best intentions, it’s a little surprising that Brooklynn didn’t let her friends know that she was safe, especially considering everything they’ve been through in Cretaceous Camp.

Jurassic World: Chaos Theory season 2
Chaos Theory season two was when the real action began
Chaos Theory the first season was a brilliant introduction to this new era of Jurassic World, but Chaos Theory season 2 immediately had more momentum. Since the first season was effectively picking up the pieces after six years, it took some time for the original team (minus Brooklynn, who was believed to be dead) to get back together. Given that the group was the reason for so much magic in Cretaceous CampIt was a shame that it took several episodes for them to get back together Chaos Theory season 1.
Chaos Theory Season 2 also took advantage of the notion of the Jurassic ‘World’, having the Nublar Six travel the world, protecting dinosaurs on every continent. Their main opponent throughout the season was Corretora, also known as Soyona Santos do Jurassic World: Dominion. Interestingly, Brooklynn was working alongside Santos, and the extent to which she is operating undercover remains unclear. THE Chaos Theory season 2 finale left the door open for Brooklynn to actually work with Santos, which would have huge implications for a possible third season.

Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous Season 3
Camp Cretaceous Season 3 is full of action, friendship and bravery
Cretaceous Camp Season 3 could be the most action-packed season yet. In fact, once again despite being aimed at children, this season features intense themes and moments that make even older viewers anxious. One of the most shocking moments this season comes when Brooklynn is kidnapped and held prisoner by Dr. Henry Wu and his bodyguard, Hawkes. Ultimately, Brooklynn is rescued by her friends, but decisions that put her life at risk cause rifts within the group, especially between Kenji and Darius.
This season also sees several confrontations between the group of friends and the Scorpios rex, a terrifying hybrid dinosaur. In addition to the action, though, season 3 also saw some very emotional moments for the group. Sammy and Yaz’s friendship was cemented after Yaz resisted the idea that they were true friends, and Ben, who had considered staying behind, realized he needed the other kids. All in all, Season 3 is the best overall season among Jurassic World: Camp Cretaceous and Jurassic World: Chaos Theoryas it combines thrilling action sequences with deep character development.
