Interesting. I didn't know Turtle Power was made by French Canadian. I wonder where they're from.

Edit: Nevermind found it. Toronto. So he's a "Franco-Ontarien" then, hu.

I think those docs just got edited to tell a better "story."

For example, the Star Wars ep completed skipped the '90s POTF2 line and went straight to the Phantom Menace figs being peg warmers, ignoring that POTF2 had been huge for like 3 years before Phantom Menace.

I knew that reuniting ending was bs since I saw the Turtle Power doc before. The original 8 episodes were great but they really dropped the ball on the latest batch

That was the only big thing for me. They made the climax of the episode like the climactic reunion with Eastman and Laird... yet we just got that like a year or two beforehand in the Turtle Doc. At the remains of their old house, no less. And even then, it wasn't like they hadn't been talking.

Yeah, would have enjoyed hearing the interview Randy Falk gave instead of that reunion joke. Oh, well.
