It was on at 5 o'clock and that was in February or March 2014. It was on every day of the week and repeated the season in order. Not long afterwards it repeated the season again. It alternated between TMNT and Dragons Riders of Berk so hopefully that will happen again for season 2. I had to watch the episodes online because it's such a massive wait. It only airs on RTE after Nickelodeon has finished airing the season. I remember really looking forward to it every day after a long day working which is quite sad to be honest.

I didn't know that shows were repeated on RTE Junior. To be honest, I've never watched that channel, as I think most of its programmes are aimed at a young audience. Regarding the cartoon, I've actually only watched a few episodes of seasons one and two, so I don't know much about the show. I thought the second season finale was very dark and edgy for a kid's cartoon, though.

Channel 5 will be showing the season 2 final on Saturday and Sunday. I doubt they will be airing season 3 straight after.

No news on when Nickelodeon will be showing the 2nd half of season 3 but I have a feeling it won't be until September/October time.

Yeah RTE Junior is aimed at a younger demographic. All the programmes on at the moment seem to be aimed at toddlers. For a while from 5 o'clock until 7 it was TRte which was aimed at preteens. Hopefully it will go back to that, maybe when the children are back at school.

Yeah the finale was quite dark and I liked the homages to the comic. I grew up with the 2003 show and the 1987 show but I much preferred 2003 with its darker tone. I still have the toy of 2003 Shredder somewhere in the house. The 2012 version is quite different but that can be a good thing. Certain aspects are similar but I love watching any version of the turtles to be honest. They still have the same distinct personalities and I love watching them interact and play off each other.

I grew up with the 1987 and 2003 series as well. I preferred 2003 too because it had better characterisation and story arcs and was based on the original comic. The 2012 series is starting to grow on me, but I still prefer the first two turtles cartoons. I think 2003 is still the best. I've never read Mirage, so a lot of the homages in the finale probably went over my head. One scene reminded me of the 2003 episode The Shredder Strikes Back.

So.... Any news on new episodes? (Although with how we get screwed over by Nick I highly doubt there is)

No not yet, I bet they will air the 2nd half of season 3 in September or October.

Nick UK showed a trailer today for the rest of Season 3, or rather the Return to NY saga. It was advertised as a 'new series'.

Cool thanks, so i'm guessing we get new episodes in August (or September) hopefully.

Wasnt the RTNY saga already aired? I have it taped on my Sky Box from a while back

[Vicky82]

I just turned the channel over to Nicktoon to catch this new promo, luckily It come on 15 mins later. So yeah it's definately August, I wonder when in August

I hope they air new episodes on Saturdays and Sundays like last time, so they can catch up with the US quickly.

Looks like Nick UK doesn't like Nick US Schedule so they put the series into 2 halfs. Which I can understand as Nick US Scedule is terrible.

[Vicky82]

New episodes starts on August 8th, Saturdays and Sundays.

Any word on if the 2003 series will be aired again like in the U.S?

I assume theyll be up with the next episodes next week. Like how Wormquake/The Manhatten Project took nearly 6 months to arrive

[Vicky82]

Tale of the Yokai just aired and i'm surprised the British censors didn't cut anything out.

Digiguid hasn't updated yet so I don't know when Annihilation: Earth will air but I expect it could be on Sept 19th. I have this feeling that the US will put the episode up online a week earlier, like all the other 2 part episodes.

ITunes still hasn't got the latest episodes up yet.

[Vicky82]

I just checked Digiguide and they updated the scedule and we won't be getting the new episodes before the US. It looks like we be getting the last 4 episodes from October 3rd (Attack of the Mega Shredder is re airing on Sept 27 so hopefully The Creeping Doom on Oct 3rd).

[The Turtle Terminator]

Dammit. Thats Nick UK for ya . Any word if 2k3 will be repeated?

What is it that you prefer about the 1987 series over the 2012 series?

I've only seen a few episodes of seasons one and two, but I prefer the tone of the 1987 series. I think the 2012 series suffers from an identity crisis at times, as it tries to strike a balance between being serious and light-hearted. I don't get it.
