Anyway, did anyone notice the "Got Milk" poster in the store? It had Bradford on it, though and it said, "Got Curd?" :lol:

I didn't notice that, I'm surprised he was famous enough to be doing all of those posters and things. One or two pages back in the thread somebody posted shots of the magazines and one of them in an upper row mentioned Chris Bradford, but it was a bit too blurry to make out what it's saying. I can't help but be curious as to what it's saying, as it appears to be quoting him and might give a slight clue (however tiny) as to what is going on in the city. If he mentions anything about aliens, then we know that the EDF people haven't been censuring the press about the invasion.

The new eps are just too OTT, ridiculous, and down right dumb. There is no witty humor, or truly hysterical moments like before. I have a feeling it's all due to the fact that this new guy, Brandon Auman, who wrote a few of the dumber episodes, and did some editing of the better ones in the past is all of a sudden head writer and head producer, and the guy probably doesn't know what the hell he is doing. The producers/Nick is probably spending all of their production costs on big name voice actors which nobody but a small group of people in the world really give a fu^&*ck about, but in the end, short changing the writers. You could have the biggest name celebrities you could think of in a movie/tv show, but if the writing sucks, not all of the oscar caliber acting in the world is going to save it. I think they should hire some really good writers to come back and draft some better thought out plots. Right now, the show is slowly losing my interest. Only reason why I hang on, it's because I'm a TMNT fan. But, what are the regular "casuals" going to think when they tune in? I bet they will be flipping through the stations, see TMNT, and wonder how come they are fighting a weird big foot, instead of using ninja moves against a serious opponent.

I guess the only episode I liked out of the ones you mentioned was Cockroach Terminator, the others weren't as interesting to me. I think it might have been because they were literally a bunch of mutants of the week, and that got old after a while. I can't help but like Season 3 because half of the creatures they come across aren't mutants, either being demonic entities or a borderline mythical creatures (Bigfoot.) It makes it feel like there is a diverse cast of enemies, something I know people were complaining about a bunch because it seemed that every new enemy that popped up was yet another mutant.
Once they get back to New York, there will be more MOTWs. Shredder and co won't have much development outside of briefly interacting with the Turtles, and we probably won't see a resolution to Karai's mutation until the season 3 finale. I don't begrudge the Hampton stuff, because it's honest about what it really is, and that is what makes it so fun for me.
