What is your favorite episode from Back to the Sewers (Season 7?)
 

For this poll, I'm including the entirety of Mayhem From Mutant Island since it takes place this season. Even though a best overall episode thread has already been posted, I will post another based upon the top picks of each poll in this series.

I liked the finale. At the time I thought that wedding episode was going to be the end of the series, I didn't know about Turtles Forever at the time.

I liked how they showed almost every major character in the show one last time, Cody watching through the time window, and Bishop and Rat King for some reason watching April/Casey's wedding. LOL.

Identity Crisis. Loved the Turtles in their Foot garb, and that the episode required April and Casey to "save the day." A very VERY close second is Hacking Stockman

I liked the couple examples of Mikey being creatively brilliant. One of them was in Karate Schooled.

You know I actually don't remember this season very well. I think BTTS were my least rewatched episodes.

I'm pretty sure I saw each episode twice, but that was it.

I think there's a reason for that... namely they weren't released on region 1 DVD.

I totally agree that those were the best two, but I voted for Hacking Stockman. Shredder taking over Stockman's body and throwing together some armor was pretty awesome.

Probably, although I did watch the episodes twice, so I probably watched them online at some point.

I feel this season should have been 26 episodes. They went through all these character redesigns for such a short season, makes little to no sense.

Hacking Stockman was my fav followed closely by Superquest. Love that ep thought it was super cute when Leo transformed into those animals. And plus it was a World of Warcraft take off.

Yeah, that was awesome! I also liked seeing the daimyo and ultimate ninja watching it from the Battle Nexus.

I voted for Tempus Fugit though. It's my favorite mainly because of the 3-Shredder battle. I also liked seeing the lair one last time before it had the makeover.

Really? I thought that if anyone would've heard about it, it would've been you. I know I had heard about something big that was going to be coming.

Eh, I don't know. If it was just an additional thirteen episodes of Cyber Shredder garbage, then no thank you. But if it was thirteen episodes of filler episodes, I'm not sure if that's even any better.

I went with Tempus Fugit. I don't know why, but for some reason I feel like it was much better than the rest of the season. I think it might be because such a long period of time went by in between the final episode of Fast Forward, and the first episode of BTTS. So when it finally aired, I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what would happen next.

Speculation was all over the place at the time though. I remember a rumor that it was going to be an animated version of Vol. 1 #1.

That wasn't speculation. That was their original intention. They had Murph scribe it, remember?

I picked tempus fugitid cause it kinda reminds me of turtles in time. And I would also choose the last episode too cause it was the end of the whole series.(plus I almost cried when the episode ended when it first aired lol)

I voted for WBAB because unlike most cartoons, it gives a proper finale showing not just a plot built since early in the series, but also gives one last chance to see Cyber Shredder foil the wedding. All of the cameos appearing also show how much the turtles/April/Splinter had gone through. After that, I would of course go with the opener as it is definitely the most thrilling and action packed of all episodes from this season.

Ah, gotta love warmth of a series finale. When all the cast, including friends and former enemies alike, comes together for a common purpose; that one was of love, of the wedding of Casey Jones and April O' Neil.

Any chance to see Usagi Yojimbo, Gen, Leatherhead, Silver Sentry, Professor, and Fugitoid all together in one place, is one big heartwarming plus for me.

I guess I'm one of the few people who likes seeing the TMNT dress up as super heroes, because I voted for "Super Power Struggle"!

Same here.

You forgot the Q in SuperQuest, and it's Mayhem From Mutant Island, not Mutant From Mayhem Island.

the engagment ring. it is interesting to see how Casey has changed over the seasons and howv much he has come to adore April. Really sweet!

No, I liked that one the best for two reasons the homage to Hal Jordan and the parodies seen at the New York Comic Convention and second it was the only episode I can remember that paired up Michelangelo and Raphael which in my opinion is the most fun sub-group to play off of each other.

The Incredible Shrinking Sterling and SuperQuest were dull in my opinion but otherwise it was a great set of episodes.

I agree with Cybercubed that the season of only thirteen episodes(14 if you count the Mayham of Mutant Island shorts set) just does ont seem like enough. I was waiting all season long for the 3 way battle with the Shredder to develop but it never did! That was disappointing and it had such potential. I don't understnad why that was not followed up on/resolved. One thing that did annoy me about the season was why say the TMNT were gone for a year when they can be dropped back seconds after they were taken from the present? It would have made more sense that way at least to me.

The 3 way Shredder battle was clearly an alternate universe. Khan even says something like "the Turtles were destroyed" or along those lines.

A few thought the same when the TMNT were in the future. They could fake their demise or one side had them thought to be disposed of and escaped. That reasoning caused me to I see it as a glimpse to the end of the season.

No it was not. The Shredder Wars would've been the season after Back to the Sewers. It was the same universe.

That was BEFORE they decided to bring Ch'rell back for Turtles Forever. Had the final season happened, we would have seen Ch'rell escape from the ice asteroid in that instead of Turtles Forever.

Ch'rell wasn't going to come back twice.

No, Turtles Forever explained how Ch'rell returned. They still wanted to do a season after that, an employee who worked on the show told us back in 2009. Ch'rell didn't die there, Karai and Splinter even mentioned he'd be back.

PL said they "hoped" there would be another season after BTTS, but they said they always knew Season 7 could be the end.

Nothing from a Season 8 was ever written or planned in script form, the episodes don't exist.

Yes, that's what PL said. Not what the guy I mentioned said. The episode Tempus Fugit as it is wouldn't even have been there had they not a Shredder Wars season in mind.

Yep, but what I mean is it was wishful thinking, work on another season of episodes never started.

Its not like the unproduced Season 5 ep with Garbageman or those early FF Season 2 scripts, they never began work at all on another season after BTTS. It was just a hinted direction IF they got to do another season.

Super Power Struggle has more votes than Identity Crisis...

Weird indeed. I'd imagine Identity Crisis would have picked up a lot of second place votes (I know it got mine).

BTTS was a decent season brought down by 2-3 bad filler episodes and a lack of recurring villains.

We really should have had a Rat King episode here and maybe one more for Bishop. Perhaps if this season was 26 peisodes...shame.

Exactly. if BttS was 26 episodes long, I could abide the filler like Super Power Struggle and Incredible Shrinking Serling, because there were 24 other episodes to ballence out the fluff...but nope, we got 13 episodes. Heck, Wedding Bells... should have been a 2 parter, or at least an hour special.

I suppose I could retort with "Good news, everyone!" Heh.

Anyway, my choice would be "Hacking Stockman," seeing Baxter again after what happened to him in Fast Forward. It is a pity they had not provided an explanation as to why he is no longer working for Bishop, but whatever. The team-ups Baxter was willing to do with characters he normally wouldn't associate with (Hun, the Turtles) enhanced the episode, besides Cyber- Shredder's interesting means of revenge.

And I'd put the "Wedding Bells and Bytes" episode as a distant second. I'm a sucker for wedding or "comic book-like fighting during a wedding" episodes.

Wedding Bells and Bytes for me. What can be greater than Splinter's return, Shredder's demise, and all those cameos? Just makes me sad that the Turtles were all wearing a tux in their final battle...

Those were the turtles???? I thought that was James Bond???

I really need to rewatch this season again. But I don't want to buy an Aussie DVD. Whatever shall I do?

We cannot post links to episodes on a post so I thought I would refer you to the youtube account I look at to watch season 3,first half of 4 and 7 whenever I get the urge. I am surprised no copyright problem has come up so its great. Type in the name of the account TMNTuploader and enjoy!

Heh I just rewatched "The Engagement Ring," that was a great episode.

Loved seeing April turn into a demon, Hun returning and threatining to cut off April's finger, Casey willing to risk his life for April, all around a good ep. Also funny how Hun told the other dragons that he killed the Turtles.

Much like FF, its a shame the bad episodes of the season are remembered more than the good ones. BTTS had some quality eps here.
