With 8 weeks since the last episode and 3 weeks 'til the next one, the question is...
 
Anyone else going through Turtle withdrawal? :(

Yeah man I need my turtles fix :tmad:

Help me! I need turtles. It's worse where I am. We have only got to Wormquake 3 months ago.

It's an endless desert... I don't need water... I don't need food... I don't need more energy... I just... need... TMNT! - collapses -

What a shame, I'll help you once I'm finished watching my Turtles' episodes on my computer. :P

I just hope they move the story line some more instead of producing more characters, just to sell figures. If they're gonna do that, at least make Usagi Yojimbo. (And yes I know that I brought this up already on a different thread.....who cares)

Yeah, this going cold turkey because they (supposedly) took it out of the way for the movie is rough.

It's long breaks suck anyhow, but would have at least been a little easier had it left us off at the end of the season rather then straight up cut it off like that. I mean, imo keeping the TMNT enthusiasm flowing via episodes would not have been harmful to the movie... (Or at least had reruns on a lot. So much other crap on too much, yet not TMNT much at all.:roll:) At best, what, now they've got me thinking movie Turtles enough because it's the only thing going right now that it's gonna be a little rusty to shift gears and get back into the Nick version groove?

Guys, it's not that far away. And they've been showing reruns on Nick on Sundays and are starting to show reruns every day now on Nick. Tomorrow they're airing "Fungus Humongous" at 2/1c. So if you want your TMNT fix, watch that. I know I will be.

I gotta wonder though. With the time and money to generate these new characters to sell as toys, is Playmates really making a profit off of the random mutants, vs the Turtles themselves? I really wish I had some data that shows which are the most popular action figures sold for TMNT.

That makes it worse for me. I feel like Tantalus from Greek mythology. The fruit I hunger so much is right above me, but just out of my reach... :cry:

Wasn't that Michael Bay movie thing supposed to help with that??? :tlol:

Pft.... My signature is quite accurate at how I feel about the thing. I have my issues with the Nick toon, but none of them are insulting and offensive as we got in the movie. In fact, I'm liking everything about the show, I just wish they would pull away from the Donny/Leo focus so much, and mix up the dynamic of the characters a little, have Karai hang out with Raph, maybe Casey hangs out and has an adventure with Leo, maybe April has an adventure with Mikey, Donny has an adventure with Splinter... But with that aside, as for the characters themselves in the show, I like them just fine. And the stories are more coherent too.

I think it was just a placebo. :lol:


To be honest, as much as I love this series and as much as I have enjoyed rewatching episodes in the past...at this point I am so tired of reruns. Even the few available to me 'on demand' are ones I've seen enough times for now.

Well, even if there's a few weeks to go I'm grateful that it's coming back next month. Expecting to have a little bit of [not yet scheduled] surgery coming up, so new episodes will give me something to look forward to while recuperating. Just really hoping it doesn't happen on the/a day it comes back on.

Considering I have a new book from IDW like every 2 weeks, & have been re-reading select Tales Of The TMNT issues, naw, I'm good. Definitely looking forward to the new episodes but I have other means of getting turtled out. :trazz:

snake 08-24-2014 06:50 PM

The waits kills me. As someone who has watched since the shows first episode, I've seen too many waits.

raph27 08-24-2014 08:37 PM

I just found a bunch of the old OT DVDs at Best Buy for $5 a piece. That's how I'm dealing with Turtle withdrawal. Plus I re watched Pizza Face the other day cause I love that ep.
