Every good show has their weak points. As much as I love the new series, there are episodes that I simply don't like. Episodes such as:

Nano/Modern Love
Garbageman/Junklantis
Unconvincing Turtle Titan
Return of The Justice Force
Touch and Go

What do you think?

... HEY, you stole my list!

I'd add "Reflections" to this list. I ****ing hate episodes compiled from the previous ones in general. In any series.

Junklantis gets my vote. That was just hard to watch. At least the first Garbageman episode had the Professor. He was an interesting enough character (shame he hasn't shown up more often).

I didn't really care for Same As It Never Was, granted, I've never been a big fan of those kind of stories... with the exception of Batrman the Animated Series' Over the Edge. Last but not least, there are the Turtle in Space episodes. Nothing really bad, it was just that the storyline kept going on and on while there were more immediate and interesting plots based on Earth I was hoping to get back to.

I have to say I don't like The King very much. I was really bored watching that episode. Also April's Artifact isn't that good. But no episode is as bad as Unconvincing Turtle Titan. That was a really unconvincing episode. :)

I didn't care for the one where the turtles are out in the country area, and a spaceship hits and that girl gets out and donny keeps her purple hair. That episode was BAAAAAAAAAD, and the "queen" reminded me more of a 3rd grade stuck up suburban girl rather than a queen. The voice acting didn't help either. Overall just a ridiculous episode that shouldn't have made the cut.

Krangstein: I can understand why you wouldn't like "The King" but do you know the backstory to it. Jack being Jack "the King" Kirby, who was a real life comic artist. Without him we probably wouldn't have the turtles because he revolutionized comics and gave a ton of people inspiration. The episode can be pretty boring without knowing the back story to it.

1. Nano
2. Return of Nano
3. Garbageman
4. Junklantis
5. Justice Force
6. Turtle Titan
7. Reflections
8. Cousin Sid
9. Monster Hunter
10. The Golden Puck
11. All Hallows Thieves

If you took out all those episodes, the story wouldn't change at all.

My thoughts exactly. Though I'm not opposed to stand-alone episodes per se, I do hate it when the offshoots make absolutely no sense whatsoever. Really, that's the only episode I remember really disliking.

Well, you'd need to at least keep "Monster Hunter" as it shows Leo healing after his near death experience with the Foot ambush. Also, you'd have to keep in "Cousin Sid" as it shows all them healing, and the beginning of Leo's inner turmoil.

Mine would be:

SEASON 1
The Unconvincing Turtle Titan
Garbage Man
Junklantis
Notes From the Underground (the whole arc I thought was really dull)

SEASON 4
Grudge Match (I hated it with a passion until the end when Mikey kicked ass!)
All Hallows Thieves
Prodigal Son (This episode was really sloppily written and rushed, it was pretty disappointing for me).

1-Nano-both episodes.
2-Junklantis- I hope he's dead.
3-I can't remember the name but when the Turtles went to different Dimensions and Raph became a planet Racer. That one i really disliked or maybe it was Raph :ohwell:
4-Still Nobody-the "Turks" at Least the Purple Dragons had a better name
5-Golden Puck- that "Housekeeping" line mikey did was hilariuos though!!

Big Brawl: Reminded me of the lazy CBS days, Usagi would be used much better in later episodes, the "Tournament" format in a series NEVER works, even I found those stupid DBZ Budokai tornaments to be unnecersary to the story when they first inspired every anime and western fighting show to have one.

I HATED all of the Atlantis episodes...

Anyway, here is my list:
- Nano
- Garbageman
- Notes from the Underground
- Modern Love: The Return of Nano
- Return to the Underground
- Junklantis
- The Entity Below
- The People's Choice
- Sons of the Silent Age
- A Wing and a Prayer

As you see, most of them have nothing to do with the main story and were about boring characters. Thankfully the Turtles were there too...

I tried watching return of the Justice force again today. God, It's so bad. i almost fell asleep watching this. Stupid episode with stupid characters. Why comic book characters?? because TMNT was a comic book? please...
Gary
06-21-2006, 07:57 PM

Strange...I loved "Touch&Go"....hope that doesn't mean I suck or something...
And I liked the Nano episodes too....dang!

Never really seen an episode I didn't like...there are some better then others,but non I dislike
just something about the show that I love,maybe im too forgiving... :P
Gary
06-22-2006, 03:09 PM
Good point. To bad I don'tMaybe you need to read a few issues of the Justice Force to like them.
Spitfire
06-22-2006, 08:58 PM
Hmm let's see

Garbage Man was pretty lame
Anything with Nano annoys the holy hell out of me
I dislike alot of the super hero episodes
The whole space thing used to be cool to me, now it just bores me. The invasion *yawns* getting zapped into outer space*snores*

I don't know I don't really have the paitence to site down and watch some of the episodes again. Their not terribly exciting to me anymore. I still LIKE them I just can't watch them as much as I used to.

I got to say that "Junklantis" was the worst episode in the series. :sleep: I always cringe when Mike tries to sing "Britannia":sick:

Really? I found myself holding my sides, trying not to laugh to much :lol: But other than that, "Junklantis" is on my "to burn" list, though I try to keep in mind that this seris is aimed at kids roughly the age of 8.

My list is -

Nano (Oh god...)
Return of Nano (Oh GOD!)
Garbageman (if only they rewrote the character a bit so then he was hell bent on world domination, slowly kidnapping people to do his bidding...)
Junklantis (... *gets out a gun*)
Justice Force (o_O?)
Touch and Go (Again, good ideas for characters. They reminded me of James Bond with Mr. Kid and whats-his-name XD But the power up thing was their downfall. It would've been a good episode, if it did not rely on touching each other and going about their beeswax so much)
The Golden Puck (It was alright, showing how the guys go about to enjoy some normal human activites, but the whole honor about ice hockey thing really made me think that Casey really needed to get a life)

I'll see if I can add more stuff later.
