Rise Official Episode Discussion S1 E11a/E11b The Purple Jacket/Pizza Pit
 
Might as well do a episode discussion then as the episodes are up online.

The Purple Jacket
An evil tech club lures Donnie with the promise of a gorgeous purple jacket.

Pizza Pit
It’s Pizza Week, the greatest week of the year, but the Turtles’ favorite pizza joints keep getting taken out.

Very disappointed that Hun or any other 2003 purple dragons members didn't appear

Agreed, like the girls name should have been Angel.

I did love the second half of the show though.
These are my favorite parts:

So if they think the old toon version is an alternate universe what does that make the cgi nickelodeon show?

The purple Dragons as tech bandits? Unusual but no weirder than Baxter being a child.

I laughed way harder at that part than I should have. What really nails it are:
Spoiler:
The foam costumes.

I'm sure Hun will pop up later on.

Not seen this, but now I'm wondering if the concept takes any cues from the Fast Forward season's Street Phantoms?


*cough* Seems like these eps are already up on that other site that can't be named, so if anyone lacks access to the Nick videos for one reason or other...

Ninjinister 12-08-2018 04:35 PM

Were these online only so far or did they air on TV today?

They just randomly were posted online late yesterday.

IndigoErth 12-08-2018 06:05 PM

So...

Spoiler:
...they're tech geek high school kids...? :tconfuse: Well at least they became actual bad guys, I guess.

Maybe we'll see them again? I could see Baxter falling in with them.

Gotta be honest, usually it's cute, but these Turtles do not look too great sans masks... Although I liked Leo's PJs. Naked-looking Donnie in contrast however...

-------

Well, I give this show props on actually making female mutants more of a norm and not the rare exception to the rule. Even if they were kind of annoying.

So... Donnie has gained 2012 Mikey's belief in imaginary creatures? (I know, I know, it showed up at the end, but like we'll ever see it again.)

Originally thought he may have been one of the better characters in this series and the most intact, but with some of the past eps after seeing both of these eps, this Donnie is starting to get annoying in some ways, to be honest.

I think I've had my fill of wannabe "Ren & Simpy" faces for one series.

Since they used it again, if we don't see those suited up Turtles as figures in stores eventually I'll be surprised.

edit: Oh and I must not forget the pics of 2012 Turtles from seires, costumes, and the crossover '87 TMNT, which was kinda cool. lol


Not the worst eps, but... meh. Watched the pizza one first, figuring I'd like the other one better since it was actually Purple Dragon themed not just pizza themed, but honestly... the pizza one was funner imo, if still a nothing ep.

Spoiler:
Someone out there is so going to ship one of the Turtles with one of those band girls by next weekend, mark my words... lol

Ashwolf 12-08-2018 06:27 PM

Both of these ep segments were weird and kinda lame. Honestly prefer the purple dragons as a gang than some high school club although the tech bit is a cool take but that can be mixed in with the gang aspect. Dont really have much to say on the pizza 1.

Poweranimals 12-08-2018 06:56 PM

I haven't watched it yet but I was surprised to see this listed on my Amazon video. Weird that it just dropped online. I wonder if that was planned or not.

LeotheLateBloomer 12-09-2018 11:51 AM

The Purple Jacket was okay but Pizza Pit was just boring. I did like the interaction between Don and April how he was constantly blaming her for his faults.

Ninjinister 12-12-2018 11:11 AM

So these Purple Dragons are essentially the Black Gators.

Yeah, I guess Don’s finally found a Mutant love interest...

Cowa 12-26-2018 03:23 AM

All I have to say about these two episode is: annoying and boring. I hated the new concept of the Purple Dragons, jeez I guess they needed to include a tech gang so it would appeal to this new generation of kids?
I liked that scene were Leo appears to check on Don wearing his pajamas.

MaximeLoonatic 01-18-2019 07:19 PM

The badger girls were kinda funny and rad
As for Donnie's episode I found him very amusing and cute. I mean, he is a genius who has self taught all about everything... and yet he envy the other kids who can actually go to school!
Get him go to school, producers!,

Poweranimals 01-24-2019 12:33 PM

I wonder where they got the pictures of the alternate universes anyway.

Pizza Pit
 
I like the references to pop and rock bands in Pizza Pit.

matteso586 01-27-2019 05:45 AM

The students at April's school must be so crazy, that they didn't notice the green skin and hands having three fingers.

IndigoErth 01-27-2019 10:35 AM

Well the Purple Dragons girl did ask April who her friend was and "why he looks like mold," but...beyond that, I guess they're all pretty oblivious.

I mean, the guy isn't exactly wearing pants either. You'd think it might be rather noticeable. lol

Autbot_Benz 01-27-2019 11:40 AM

Saw what the purple dragons looked like on the Nick TMNT twitter.The Purple Dragons are supposed to be a street gang not beret wearing tech kids. Adds The Purple Dragons to my list of things Rise as ruined. I really hope Casey doesn't show up on this show.
