Next Episode?

[PhatRam32]

Anyone know when is the next episode? My guess is the Saturday after new years? I'm already having TMNT withdrawl:teek:

[CyberCubed]

We don't know yet. My guess is in mid-January.

Next ep is about Rat King so I am really excited to see how Nick handles him.

[ToTheNines]

No word yet, but with Young Justice coming back in January I wouldn't mind if we didn't get new episodes until March. The longer this break is, the shorter our wait will be for season 2. In theory.

[CyberCubed]

We still have 14 eps of the season left, I would expect the season to end around late May or early June for sweeps.

Either way we're probably going to get 3 months of reruns next summer as Season 2 will likely start in September.

I hate when television networks, especially Cartoon Network, do this. Was there ever even a reason given?

Why the f*ck do they need a reason? It's how TV shows work.

[Donatello19]

Was there ever even a reason given?

If there was a new episode every single week, soon there would be no episodes left, or the company would churn them out faster and they would be crappy filler episodes. Making episodes of a T.V show takes a lot of time y'a know.

[BubblyShell22]

I'm sure we'll get a new episode after the holidays. They have to have breaks so that the seasons can stretch out longer, which is fine for me. If they didn't, the season would end way too soon.

[Zulithe]

I'm hoping for second week of January. January 12th. But they could pull a fast one on us and go with Jan 5th? It doesn't seem like it though.

I just hope they are making good progress for Season 2 so it can premier in Q3 or Q4 of 2013. I hope they don't stretch things out and make us wait for 2014? Surely not?

The voice tracks seem to be recorded about a year before the episode airs, which means nearly a year for the animation/post-production process, and I feel that there's plenty of time to meet the deadline. That said, expect the subway car to become the Shellraiser in the next episode.

You do realize the show was greenlit for 3 seasons right from the start, right? They were already planning the scripts for Season 2 as soon as the Season 1 scripts were done. It takes about 9 months for the finished CG animation, the voices, music, and edits, so there should be no problem with a new season in September.

[gobo]

Mayan tv schedule says no new TMNT after December 21st 2012. Darn those friggin' know-it-alls. :tgrumble:

[franken_stein]

I talked to Ciro at the Talkin' Toons recording, and he said it would return sometime in February :( He didn't have an exact date though. And yeah, as for post-production, he also said that he works pretty much right up until the premiere! The episodes air Saturdays, as you know, and he says sometimes they're working on it until that previous Thursday.

[Kevin G]

Thank you franken_stein for letting us know :)

I checked my TV and it said that Mousers Attack will be airing at 11. So does that mean I, Monster won't air until February then ? Just wondering.

I wonder who is voicing The Rat King ? .... Robert Englund would be awesome.

[BAXTER STOCKMAN 19]

On february? ! NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(:(:(:( Did he also told you why they delay it so much? Why they dont continue it on January? Is season 1 complete and now they are working on season 2? Did he told you anything about that?

[Powder]

Yes, he's hoarding tons of information. Get over it...

[Yorae]

Aw, man. I was hoping for mid January :ohwell:

[ZariusTwo]

Hmm, interesting. Feb is (normally) when the new season of Power Rangers begins too, so maybe they want new TMNT as a lead-in (or more likely a lead-out)

[TheSkeletonMan939]

On february? ! NO NO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!:(:(:(:( Did he also told you why they delay it so much? Why they dont continue it on January? Is season 1 complete and now they are working on season 2? Did he told you anything about that?

They're definitely finished with season 1, and probably starting the animation for the second season.

[CyberCubed]

The show is already renewed through Season 3, how many times does this need to be stated? The original news said that new episodes will continue through 2015. Obviously Season 3 would start in Fall 2014 and go through 2015.

I'm sure we'll get more than 3 seasons though.

IMDB said Steven Jay Blum, but I wouldn't put all of my stock into what IMDB says.

[MikeandRaph87]

Nick aired TMNT at noon each day during the week and the next episode in order was "Mousers Attack" which is set to air in an hour. So after that its just "It Came From The Depths" left of those that have aired thus far. Either "It Came Form The Depths" will go ahead and repeat this early on after its initial airring then "I,Monster" will air for the first time January 12th instead of the 5th of January.

[Donatello19]

The next episode is titled I, Monster, and will premiere sometime in 2013. Here's a description I found. Sounds like Karai/Miwa will be in this episode!

Leo, tired of Raph's crictisism, lets his brother try his hand at leadership. Leo then meets a beautiful and dangerous Kunoichi who tries to lure Leonardo to the dark side.

Raph being a leader? Interesting...

[BubblyShell22]

I can't see them waiting until February to re-air episodes. I'm sure it'll be either next week or the week after. And as for that summary, while part of that sounds interesting, the rest sounds like a fan fic. And I don't think Raph has ever really criticized Leo's leadership decisions apart from "Never Say Xever."

[TheSkeletonMan939]

I'm sure it'll be either next week or the week after.

Um...no. You're a few weeks off.

Actually, I don't see it as a story used for fan fiction. This actually sounds interesting. But what about when the turtles just entered Dimension X? Does this happen there, or will we see them come home before they actually explore the place?

While I'm excited for the story itself, I know it will be predictable. I just want to see how it plays out. How does Leo let Raph be the leader? How long can Raph lead his way if it fails? Will Splinter approve? How does he meet Karai (or Miwa, whoever it is)? How will Leo refuse to join the dark side? What will cause him to realize where he belongs? I may be looking forward to this one. I'm just worried that Leo will do something stupid for love. But hey. Donnie has been doing stupid things for love when he's around April anyway. Here's hoping Karai doesn't become one of the "good" guys.

[Drose18]

Didnt they say TMNT will be stripped on nick in 2013?

[CyberCubed]

Why does Raph wanting to try being the leader sound strange to some of you? If anything it sounds like a realistic plot for this show

We haven't gotten a Raph ep since Turtle Temper anyway.

[HerpDerp]

Didnt they say TMNT will be stripped on nick in 2013?

It already is, they play it at least once every day.

[BubblyShell22]

Um...no. You're a few weeks off.

Well, that sucks. Oh well, I guess we'll just have to wait.

[franken_stein]

Afraid that's all I can tell you :( There was actually another show being recorded after Talkin' Toons, and lots of people wanted to talk to the cast & crew of course, so by the time i got to Ciro we had to scram pretty soon! I just told him that all I wanted to say was "THANK YOU for making this show" and he seemed really appreciative :)

And that's all we had time for!

[Avatar Yuffie]

Steve Blum, according to his IMDb (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0089710/)

[TheSkeletonMan939]

Steve Blum on the show would be AWESOME.

[Mandi-chan]

According to Hulu Plus, the show's coming back on Feb 9th.

[oldmanwinters]

Ye Old Wiki-P is listing episodes 14-15, 20-21 ("I, Monster/Rat Trap", "The Alien Agenda/WWGP", "Enemy of My Enemy/An Inconvenient Truce", and "Karai's Vendetta/Girl's Night Out") but has nothing for the other episode listings. Strange... when was that information leaked?

What,really?! Man..that is a lot of waiting. I'm already getting withdrawal.

You're kidding, right? That's not even two whole months. Have you ever watched another show before?

[TheSkeletonMan939]

If there's anyone who has the right to having "cartoon withdrawal", it should be Young Justice fans (although there was a new ep today).

[Donatello19]

I'm excited to se the Karai episode, but I thought someone mentioned Karai wasn't going to be in this series and was going to be replaced by Miwa...:tconfuse:

[Coola Yagami]

1- wow... they rerunned the Metalhead episode already. They should done the Baxter one or something else...

2- YOUNG JUSTICE IS BACK?????

[ToTheNines]

I'm excited to se the Karai episode, but I thought someone mentioned Karai wasn't going to be in this series and was going to be replaced by Miwa...:tconfuse:

I've heard mulitple voice samples of KMR saying "Karai", so she's in it. I suspect that Karai's real name is Miwa though.

The voice actor herself said she was voicing Karai.

[BubblyShell22]

Ah, well, it's not on my birthday (Feb 2). Oh, well, at least it'll be coming back soon.

[PhatRam32]

Looks like a new episode this saturday possibly.. My dvr is set to record a new episode that day so hoping that is not a mistake

[BubblyShell22]

Okay, I've now heard conflicting reports. First, someone said February and now we're hearing it's on this Saturday. I guess we'll just have to wait and see, but I'll believe it when I see it or hear from a reliable source.

[PhatRam32]

Wish Nick would make some kind of official announcement.

[gobo]

Zap2it says no new eps in the next two weeks.

[PhatRam32]

Oh ok I see that now on the site.. Bummer... So they are showing all the re-runs in order right up to the new episode?

[PhatRam32]

Checked my dvr again and yes it is a repeat on the 12th..sorry to get everyone's hopes up.. I must of misread it yesterday.

[MrTMNT2012]

So there will be an Episode on February 2nd?

[ToTheNines]

Oh ok I see that now on the site.. Bummer... So they are showing all the re-runs in order right up to the new episode?

No, it'll be back in February.

So there will be an Episode on February 2nd?

Apparently Hulu is saying the 9th. We'll see.

[Jephael]

I gotta say I'm kinda glad they're taking a break. Like some people have already said before, the longer we have to wait now, the shorter a wait it'll be between the end of this season and the beginning of next season.

[Zulithe]

The break till Feb is a good idea, it allows them to stretch the new episodes so there's not as much of a gap between season 1 and 2. Kids can latch onto new things pretty fast so it's in Nick's best interest to try and keep things at a steady stream.

You sure about that? I know some TV shows start a new season immediately after the last finale, but other networks see a finale as another chance for a long hiatus.

I guess we'll have to wait and see.

Yes, but cartoons rarely air new episodes during the summer. This next run is shaping up to be Feb-May, which makes sense.

[BubblyShell22]

They're probably also doing that because they have only fourteen eps left for this season, and if they air it too soon, it will probably end the season around March, and maybe they don't want that. I don't mind though. There's always other stuff to watch if you don't want to watch reruns.

[PhatRam32]

No, it'll be back in February.

This supports the claim above:

[Mona_Lisa]

Now I am having TMNT withdraws...lol. Can't wait for the new ep.:twink:

[BubblyShell22]

Well, you only have to wait a few weeks, and it'll go by fast. Shame it's not coming back on my birthday. That would have been a great birthday present.
