Where will the Turtles, Casey, and April go from last season with a certain professor, or should I say doctor? What new surprises await beyond the confirmed creatures for this season? Fasten your seatbelts ladies and gentlemen, it's showtime!

I am SO ready for this episode. :trazz:

I hope we get some Star Wars, Star Trek and Dr. Who references during this arc.

Almost time. :)

Hey guys and gals just wanted to ask a quick question: if you got ideas for the usual episode poll, can you give some suggestions please? :)

With that said, blastoff time.

It's time! :)

Here we go!

Nice sounds.

Almost time for me

Woah, trippy.

Hmmm, new intro. Cool! :D

Loving fugitoid!

They did their research.

Turning back time, really? :roll:

Come on I know they're following the book, but even with the time frame, that's a serious cop out of a fix. At the very least, the visuals for space are spectacular to see, animation really got boosted.

I see what you did there...

Federation?

I'm surprised that they didn't make a "never tell me the odds" joke.

Casey Jones just said, Were out like Vanilla Ice.

Oh god, this is like Star Wars.

Good to know that Tatooine hasn't changed much throughout the years.

Lord Dregg!

and here's Lord Dregg.

Also, Dregg's body is disgusting.

Smooth Leo :lol:

I wonder why they did the turning back time thing so early.

Well, it's confirmed The Federation exists.

If they make a pod racing joke, I'm out.

I like seeing all the guts and junk in Dregg. Also Casey made a vanilla ice reference and I heard fugitoid mention federation.

Cool moves, Dregg.

A spaceship that makes babies?

If they cant see fit to give me an april in her space suit... complete with her ray gun

That's new.

A www. Space apples.

Raph says. "I just got a phone call from I DONT GIVE A FLYING--"

It's nice hat they had a dedication to someone at the end.

It was entertaining episode.

Definitely ST/SW were found, starting at the very beginning. I still haven't watched Dr. Who, but that's what the Fugitoid is for. Now, on to the first interplanetary confrontation of extraterrestrial fruits based on the closing for the next episode. A pretty decent way of starting the new season, and even though the time travel was soon, the six months rule and urgency about black holes still makes this a 13-episode journey that needs to be accomplished. I like the animation they used, from the language that the Fugitoid uses to the way the Turtles/April float to the effects used on the first planet. This should have been how Season 9 of the OT should have began looking back.

I'd love to see the Turtleoid make an appearance sometime this season, too.

Show Grade: 8.5/10

Fantastic, Spectacular, Super Awesome Episode!!!!!!

Okay, it was hilarious and a little sad at the beginning. We saw some Turtle Tears....:(

We saw an on point, badass, and pretty, all around great April O’Neil. Like, they really enhanced her charcter by 1,000%. :D

We saw smooooth Donatello and smoooth Leonardo.;)

Mikey was adorable!! Squeeee!

Casey and Raph? That was the bromance I've been missing for days!!!!
And...language boys, language!

And last but not least, David Tennant KIllED it! Loving Fugitoids dry humor already:lol:

The animation was beautiful and this episode was just top notch.

Very nice opener to a new season.

Guessing they'll get blown out of space to start next week.

Funny how they end up on Newtralizer's planet after all that. :D

This episode is severely disappointing to me, but okay nonetheless. The visuals were good yes, but my gosh were the characters stupid, especially the motive of Dregg in this incarnation. Seriously, a grocery is why he hates them?

In addition, I don't like the time reversal nonsense, I'm calling the entire Earth destruction blow up for nothing at this point. With that said, good visuals and a nice set up to episode 2. I'm still on the fence overall, but I'm leaning towards mixed on the whole episode on the negative spectrum.
