I may not have been original back then, but I know the difference between "its" and "it's". #grammarnazi
Or perhaps that fun loving guy from the distant past is actually Cylon's alter ego, buried deep inside the mind of that big man who's too grown for the original cartoon (and doesn't make spelling errors).

Maybe the snap of a finger could bring out the old Cylons, who knows.

Shredder could've done more than blow up the Channel Six building. I don't mean as far as murdering Splinter, but think of the possibilities if censors were not an issue.

Shredder and Krang combined had the biggest arsenal of any villains in all of the cartoons.

Difficult choices as there are a number of really strong ones here. I think Invasion of the Punk Frogs is great with the whole Shredder setting up both TMNT and his mutants a great twist but Enter: The Fly is definitely the best well written. The finale I almost chose as well. But seriously, why did a good number of people go for Case of the Killer Pizzas? I remember it being one of the worst from that season.

I think that can be attributed to the premise of the episode which is absurd, yet alot of fun.

Also, Shredder and the turtles actually team up in that episode which I think almost never happened.

Wow this thread is old.

As a kid I loved the Eye of Sarnoth arc. Shame that, at the end, it turned out to be meaningless. But the arc looks strange when you look at the series as a whole. Maybe the writers expected to do more mini-arcs like that? The first season was also one mini-arc. And then you have Return of Shredder and right afterwards a 4 episode arc. I guess it was a good strategy because it hooked viewers to the show early on?

As for the poll... I'm gonan vote for Return of the Technodrome. It had a very show finale vibe to it and also a very Star Wars vibe to it as well. That moment where Splinter stops on his tracks and tells the Turtles he sense Shredder and also Shredder doing the same thing to Bebop, Rocksteady and the foot soldiers... it fascinated me when I was a kid. It added a lot of tension to the thing.

It's a very iconic episode. And its premise is absurd but yet pretty creative. Also, the Turtles loved pizza, so it made sense to pull something like that. One of the most memorable episodes of the series, no doubt.

Strangely when I think of Season 2 it's one episode I most likely forget exists. Absurd was never in TMNT's favour though as they sometimes took it too far yet some fans think Cowabunga Shredhead is one of the series best episodes when I consider it one of the worst because it's just so stupid.

It's those kinds of episodes that give ammunition to the FW haters but oh well.
