Remember when the notion that segnosaurs (therizinosauroids) were theropods was decried as cladist-generated rubbish?  Now we have basal segnosaurs like _Falcarius_ that cement the relationship of segnosaurs within the Theropods.  There are other examples, too numerous to mention.

But now that we have evidence of furculae in prosauropods, one of the key pillars of segnosaurs as theropods is crumbling. Stay tuned, the show is not over yet.
