Night of Sh'okanabo!
Mikey brings Cody and his three friends to a horror film festival, where they meet Sh'okanabo face to face.

Wow that sounds....stupid.

AHA! Must be the Zombie ep

Raph: Gee whiz gang, looks like Sh'okanabo is terrorizing the local film festival

Cody: Lemme at 'em, lemme at 'em

(a clip from the final scene)

Leonardo: Now let's find out who Sh'okanabo really is

(pulls off mask)

TMNT and Cody: OLD MAN BISHOP?

And if we get lucky there might be a guest appearance from The Harlem Globetrotters.

ahahahahhahahahahahahaah
ruuhht roohh! and maybe just maybe even mama cass!! wooo!:lol:

Wasn't Fat-ass Cass the one who died choking on a sandwich? I still never figured out who that Jonathan Winters guy was supposed to be. Exterminator Gadget was easy enough to recognize (and I realized how type-cast the poor guy is when Nick At Night started playing Get Smart probably over a decade ago). Oh, wait... This isn't the Scooby thread anyway. Forget I said-- er, "typed" anything.

Cody has friends?

Oh, c'mon, be nice. Cody isn't THAT bad! Not like that snotty like brat on Rugrats, whatever HER name is! At least Cody's nice. Eager, but nice. I honestly don't get WHY everybody dislikes him so much.

And to MY mind, this ep sounds kinda cool. NOT like the one that's going to be on the 14th of October, "Bishop to Knight". *shudders* I really WAS hoping that 4Kids had gotten a clue and ditched that idiot Bishop!!!

OR Davey Jones!

Or Don Knotts!

:roll::roll::roll:

another lame ass episode

so dumb...it's liek the threw them into the future with NO idea for an kinda nice story arc or nuthin..buncha crap

I hope Shokanabo turns out to be a cool villian, and not just "hey, it's Halloween, lets have a scary villian for the holliday!":ohwell:

I was hoping for Sonny and Cher.

you have a muppet for a name and you have no idea who jonathan winters is...seriously some one take this guys name way from him :lol:

:embarass:

Thats not enough info for me to judge one way or another really.

Will corrupt preview links ever be fixed? :ohwell:

Cody is a multi-millionare who lives on his, was single handidly responsible for sending the TMNT into the future, has a "mary sue" quality of unrealism to him, what else should I mention? You must really think along the lines of those old school shows, and not the kind that are any good, I'm talking Hannah Barbera in the 1970's, to appreciate Cody.:)

While thats true Cody is no where near as annoying as I thought he would be. Now Serling and Biggles are horribly annoying but Cody is actually a decent character past the rediculsness you already stated. And it's not like he is showing up the Turtles that much. He was a plot device to bring the Turtles to the future but past that I have just fond him to be a nice kid. I would take him over another 4kids "Mary Sue" Rich Kid anyday thats for sure. i'm talking Chris from Sonic X. I don't apprecate Cody I just don't hate him.

Anyway I am actually looking forward to this episode after Bishop to Knight.

Cody is pretty much a mix of April and Casey put together. That's what they were gunning for, and he is pretty much a combination of both.

Here here, Buslady. Man, this just keeps getting worse and worse. They are seriously not even trying anymore. This is all a sad, sad joke. It's laughable now.


Unfortunately more Casey... though Casey can NEVER be as annoying as Cody is. Ever.

Haaaahahahaha. :lol: :lol:

I bet that really happens too.

First there was an error since cody brought no friends with him (Also Starlee seems to be his only friend.) Second this was a pretty decent episode. All I have to do is look past Serling saving Splinter that is (God I wish Splinter remained in the past right now)

That was a great episode. Shokonabo looks to be the Shredder replacement, and we now know that he creates the dark turtles! I can't wait till a dark turtles episode and/or the zombie episode that I think is going to happen with Shokanabo's alien eggs.

today's episode was WAY awesome!!!! "It's Ninja Time" Is really catch, I love it! lol Wow the slime on the turtles being caught, this new villion is going to be great. I do wish cody would stay out of the turtles way though, aw well.

the clones are made from the flesh he ripped from them. ouch

That was... unusual, but interesting. :)

My foremost complaint so far has been that a culture does not change so quickly in 100 years, even with the galactic alliance and all that... I mean, America still retains a lot of the British culture it was founded with 230 years ago, despite all the other nationalities that have come since then, and added their own elements. But *shrug* it's a fun premise, I just wish it was a thousand years instead of a hundred, or something. But then I'd want to use the Gargoyles opening... "One thousand years ago, superstition and the sword ruled..." :D

Okay, I liked the scene with Sh'okanobo and Splinter... definitely gave me the appropriate creeps when he had him pinned on the floor.. http://i3.photobucket.com/albums/y73...ons/unsure.gif I thought he'd captured Leo too easily, but *shrug* plot device. I sort of enjoyed the human Peacekeepers muttering about robots in the background... oh, and the preview for next week in relation to Biggles.. ;)

I think I like Serling more and more... He's got it alll pegged exactly right! Haha, I love it. I agree with about everything he says.

Eh, it was 'ok'. I was bored through about all of it, and apparently missed the only funny moment (when Don slaps Mike's wrist). Not good enough to like or anything, though. It just cannot hold my attention for more than about two minutes, whereas I can watch the 2K3 series (MOST episodes, they had bad ones, too) over and over and pay rapt attention.

If Cody weren't in this series, it'd be about a million times better. He's soooooo annoying and useless.

And, it's funny, creativerealms82, that you mentioned wishing Splinter had stayed in the past... My brother and I said the same thing during this episode! Ugh, what a waste.

Still missing an edge (or, ya know, ANY kind of quality or worthiness) that the 2K3 series had that made it actually GOOD.

Meh, it was allright. I kept going back and forth between channels, but some of the stuff I saw was allright. Mikey playing the Horro Movie expert was mildly amusing, and Sh'okanabo looks like an allright villan(though he would have been 100 times threating and 100 times better in the 2K3 series).

I hate and still hate that "It's Ninja Time" crap-phrase, and Cody coming to the rescue was pretty pointless.

5/10

east coast people what time did this come on? It usually come on at 11:00 am but they played chaotic instead, so i issed it. It sounds pretty intersting. Does any one think this episode beat last years horror episode?

I'm on the east coast and started at 11am where I am. It was an okay episode. But I think Cody coming in and just standing there somehow stopped the turtles from getting beat was stupid.

Anyone else see some kind of commercial that showed Mike getting attacked by one of the Dark Turtles.

You have a point, Cody is'nt exactly as attached in a gay manner to the Turtles the way Chris is to Sonic (another reason why I always loved episode 52 of Sonic X, one of the times I've ever praised that series, just to see the girl get the guy at the end and leave Chris a hapless widow)

It was on at 11.

And I don't know that I've seen last year's Halloween ep, but I can already tell you it kicks the crap outta this one.

Like, Viva Pinata kicks the crap outta this.

Last years Halloween episode sucked big time. Today's episode was waaay better. The opening was cool too, at Shokanabo's lair when he's talking to Viral.

A good, althought not great episode. While none of the Fast Forward episodes shown so far have reached the previous series' season 4 peak, they do manage to compare quite favorably against it's first season--a much more appropiate comparison, I think.

Random thoughts:

Was it just me, or was this episode's "Danger Room" scenario based on the Ninja Tribunal's ship?

The show is slowly but surely integrating its cast into a coherent whole. Biggles appearance didn't seem contrived, and Serling finally gets some badass injected in him. Splinter, however, continues to be marginalized, and I'm left wondering what the point of bringing him along was.

Wuss Wrestling, horror movies as a very niche market--I wonder if the writers are going someplace specific with this, or if these developments are made randomly. Given the crew, I'd say a little bit from bucket A, a little bit from bucket B. In any case, the future seems to have struck a nice balance between "utopia" and "dystopia"--quite nice.

I'd considered the possibility that Sh'Okanabo could be a returned Shredder/Ch'rell, but it is now pretty clear that that isn't the case. In any case, while he's a pretty standard "take over the world" big bad, I remain intrigued. Plus, he's no slouch in a fight, either--I was pleasantly surprised when he continued to hold his own against Cody's armor, especially when devices of that type are usually used as deux ex machinas.

This episode's premise reminded me a bit of The Way of Invincibility; Sh'Okanabo's motivations this episode were almost exactly like Saki's determination to figure out wether the turtles were allied with his "enemies". Here, however, Sh'Okanabo gained nothing but increased attention from the turtles (althought fortunately, they have no leads due to the fact that he never mentioned his name--a stroke of good luck if I ever heard of one).

Well...um...wonder when the Awakening is? No doubt that's also the intro of the Dark Turtles. Altho the shadowing shown in the gene seed already looked like a turtle (a sea turtle). But hey.. at least we now know that Bishop isn't behind the dark turtles....it's the new lead baddy, Sh'Okanobo. He is seriously scary and evil.

The parts with Mikey informing the Earth Alien Appreciation
Society of the codes of horror movies got me to wonder how many codes there are and where does "The black
guy is always the first to die" fit in??. Still...the 22nd century sucks...seriously no B Horror movies??? I LOVE B horror movies as much as Mikey! Be it "Frankenstein" (I've been to the real
Frankenstein castle :D ) or "The Gargoyle"

All and all I kinda liked this ep.. Sh'Okanobo is an extremely frightening villian. And hey... it was cool to see Viral again! :D

And one of my fave quotes for this ep has to go to Raph when he looked up at Leo stuck to the wall and exclaimed.. "Ick!"... I was emediatly reminded of "Boston Legal" as there's a character who uses that as her tagline. :lol:

As for next week...Looks like that by 2105 Turtle Titan is more or less Batman (complete with a Turtle signal) and Constable
Biggles is really just an annoying robot version of Comissioner Gordon. :P

I thought this episode was pretty cool -- a tad bit better than last week's. I had no idea what Sh'okanabo was talking about whenever he metioned the Day of the Awakening -- perhaps it has something to do with Judgment Day, but how should I know? :???: He was very pecuilar-looking in his slimy shadow form. For some reason, the little shadow form o' his reminded me of the symbiotes that appeared in the Spider-Man comics -- namely Venom.

It was cool that Cody and the Turtles went to that horror movie festival cuz that made me want to see the movies that it was showing. They were having fun until Sh'okanabo decided to ruin their fun. He ended up paying the price for crashing the wrong party...:ohwell: Hey, I'm glad Cody's Turtle X made a humorous departure and entrance (with Serling attached to the chain) in order for him to help the Turtles fight Sh'okanabo. :D

The only thing I disliked about the episode was for the very beginning: there was no voice narration like in previous episodes, so that kinda threw me off. Still, it was cool to see Viral again. I'm giving this episode a four out of "Day of the Awakening" mentions out of five.

Next week's episode looks pretty good cuz Turtle Titan will return. Hopefully it'll set the stage for the Dark Turtles, to give the viewer a better understanding of what's going with 'em.

The Day of Awakening is when his gene seeds/eggs hatch. This is the day he will truly take over the world (or at least attempt to). It's also no doubt the intro of Shokonobo's new creations, the Dark Turtles.

Altho I still think that the things inside the gene seeds looked like turtles to begin with. :ohwell:

So, Cody's three friends are Mikey's brothers. How sad... I recognized the similarity in premise to "Way of Invisibility" as well, though it was a rather slight comparison. The Shredder didn't show his face so early in the game. Since he sent messengers, Sh'okanabo certainly tops him in the impatience department.
Sh'okanabo clearly stated that the turtle-clones will be to keep the TMNT from interfering with "The Day of Awakening". So, dark turtles will debut very soon. The Day of Awakening will be closer to the end of the season. I'm guessing it may involve the expected zombies, but I have a feeling that's just another diversion he'll come up with in a future episode.

On the whole, I didn't have as many complaints about this episode as last week's. It was Ninja Time twice in this episode, but it has grown tiresome to the point that I mutter some choice words, then pretend it never happened. Viral grew new arms. Did anyone notice? It must be a self-repairing, battery-powered robot that she took. Oh! And, look! My prophecy's come to pass. Her tongue is missing! :D I wish I had mentioned it before, but someone else creating the dark turtles will cause the TMNT to be even more suspicious of Bishop (who I wouldn't doubt is truly reformed). That's the only reason I didn't think it was impossible.

You know I was kind abored but kinda enjoyed it at the same time.
But the art has really grown on me and isn't all that bad now.
Splinter seriously why are you here? I keep asking myself this...he's like pointless and helpless now he's like 80's toon splinter.
Sh'okanabo is awsome great character design and very creepy!
And he took skin samples of the guys..nasty!
Was very nice to see Viral again I love her character.
Cody I'd like to see why everyone find him so annoying...he's just kinda curious to me and he's actully been very helpfull besides the fact that he brought the guys to this stupid future world.
I like his exo outfit and can't wait for the toy.
Serling I'm starting to like also..glad I got his action figure now cause it's well done! He had allot of good lines in this and he sort of reminds me of Baxter Stockman.
Officer Biggles isn't really bothering me now because he says more than "whats all this then" in this episode...and he was actully trying to help not be annoying..for once..but I guess things are kind of starting to make me laugh because when I saw the preview for next week when he goes "whats this theeeeen" and falls off the roof and Mikey goes "oops" I started cracking up. lol
And I love how Sh'okanabo is like being all sneeky running through the house and stuff...We also just saw a dark splinter shown at a toy show that oddly enough looks like Sh'okanabo and Splinter mixed into one I can't wait to see that happen on the show.
The huge thing that really botherd me in todays episode is that the turtles where being so slow and not really holding up much of a fight...they were like easily being captured..but perhaps it was done to give us that cheesy horror movie feel lol..but it went over my head if thats what it was...
I was also botherd by the lack of culture in the future you would think it would have not lost everything we as a culture have grown to love in such a quick time period...seriously stupid.
oh and this is me just being nitpicky buuut they calling the great horror movie with vincent price the Tingler the wrong name...what did they call it the tangler or something...prolly for copyright laws or something I guess..
all in all not bad the shows starting to come together finally and I couldnt be happier.

Yep, lame.
It started out somewhat hopeful but crashed when Cody brings out this stupid robot thing with Casey's mask on it...WTF!?
I was fearing that Cody Stu would end up saving the day...thank god he didnt
ok so...now shishkabobo has his little mutant kids developing...what's retarded, their skin colors...the toys have them color coded...

Im sorry but Leo for one wouldn't be captured so easily, and not attempt to grab his sword...and Raph, *smacks* you see dropped popcorn...get the guys cause somethings not right you dope!

o0h y eah

"ninja time" count: 2
