New Ep Discussion: Modern Love- The Return of Nano

Hello friends!

Once again I come to you with a teaser for the next upcoming cartoon ep!
No clipshow here, Buddy!

The lovable child-like killer toaster NANO is back in business! My guess is some of the lil nanobots managed to avoid 'the big baby food jar of rusty screws in the sky' and took some time to build itself back together.

Oh, dont you love these eps when it talks about a father and his children? Yes, I'm a sappy person. Well, Nano goes and helps his crooked father out of jail, and goes on another rampaging adventure.

I honestly cant think of any real good jokes or references to any other shows/movies/whatnot, so I guess my fellow mods will have to help me out on that one...

For once... I'm at a loss for words.

But the next episode should be fun. I hope Nano goes on a giant rampage.

Awesome episode! One of my favorites from season 2 so far. I loved the first Nano episode and I loved this one even more. It had lots of Casey, and lots of Casey and April moments. What else can anybody ask for?

Well I know I'm never gonna hear the end of it now. Even though April nearly kissed Casey on the lips, people are going to be teasing me with the whole cheek kiss deal. *fist shakes* Anyway I liked the episode, but I was hoping they'd be able to save Nano. Ah well, this looks like on original character that might be done with. Who knows...with someone like Don around? X.x

I have to say my favoirte part was when the guys are asking about what April and Casey are doing.

Leo: So...where are you taking /our/ April?
Splinter: And when will you have her back? (or something like that)

hehe if this didn't make the sister thing apparent I dunno what does.

It was an interesting episode... I felt the best parts were the allusion to the City at War and Don working on underwater tunnels for the shell sub. It was also kinda odd that they solved the problem by not fighting for once.

Still, Casey has been putting the moves on April, I didn't expect their relationship to go this fast.

Oh yeah, now we know how April starts her store back up later on. Kudos to the writers once again.

Decent episode, all though nothing specatcular. The April/Casey stuff was nice too, good to see them developing their relationship. Looking forward to next weeks episode, Croc owns.

Anyone else notice the TV report on the gang stuff? With the graphic "City at War." Nice foresahdowing.

Lol, we got some messed up mods here...

Well, this was a pretty good episode..

Why of all things that April does, WHY walk around in that bathrobe and green mud mask?!

April and Casey are getting cuter... "Its not a date!" Riiiight...

I love seeing family stuff on this show, so this was really good for me. Seeing the lil nano child become this giant beast is always fun too..

Thank you Don...! you satisfied my Splinter addiction with talking about him being a good father to you guys...

Speaking of, Did anyone see Splinter watching stuff about a city at war?!

Lol! I loved the flowers(er, stems and leaves) casey gave april. Looks like something i'd end up getting. But I gotta say, that lead in to the kiss was kinda rushed..

And I have to say this...

DONNIE WAS ADORABLE!

I'm Really liking Don more and more in this. He was rocking back on his heels like a lil kid, I think even Pouting that April wouldnt visit them anymore. The grin on his face when April kissed him was great! Casey jealous..? Naaaah...

I think Don's getting sweet on April. Seeing her with casey...I dont think Any of them like that, but Don really liked having her live with them, since she was such a techno-geek like himself. I'm waiting to see him give her a boquet of fiber optics or something...

All in all.... 7 out of ten...

hahahahha. Next episode is with leatherhead. Did you guys see donny work on the helicotpter. He managed to turn it green. I liked seeing the video on how a family should act, because we watch those in mythology and its so funny.

Not a bad episode, but not a great one either. I wasn't really anticipating Nano's return, but I was suitably entertained...

The Good
- April in the blue coveralls from her first Mirage appearance!
- The return of the Eastman & Laird Cops!
- Foreshadowing to the City at War storyline!

The Goofy
- Hardened cons playing poker for candy bars?
- Mikey's jet-powered hoverboard came across as kinda silly (and was he trying to take everyone's heads off!?)
- Donny's cutesy crush at the end almost made my teeth hurt.


Bring on Leatherhead!!!

I swear, if they had a shotgun down in the lair, one of the guys woulda been busy polishing it when Casey came down...

Here are my thoughts about the episode...

I thought this was an okay sequel. I felt a tad bad for Nano, I mean, all he did want was a family, you know. But when you have a giant robot going on a rampage (I guess he was kind of doing that) then you can't really have that going on.

I personally, thought that Mikey's new hoverboard is awesome. I mean, he seems to be a natural pro with skateboards, so something like that could become handy in the future. And also, Don working ways into the river, I think that's a smart idea...

The ending, I thought Donny was so adorable. He seems like he really does have a little thing for April, and he seemed to like that little smooch on the cheek. And I do think that Casey may, perhaps, be a tad jealous. Maybe something more will happen between those three? Who knows, I just feel like in all Turtle verses, April always has "something" personal, like this, going on with Don. Maybe it's just me? But what does everyone think...do you think more may become of the three...or will April just stick with Casey, cause those two seem to be getting closer as well.

Also, can't wait for the Leatherhead episode...looks sweet! C ya laters! And to the people down south, who may be coming to Louisiana, Happy Mardi Gras!

I liked it. I thought Don was great (as usual) in this. But then again, I always think so.

Don was getting... dare I say... PATERNAL in this episode?! With the whole wanting to save Nano and give it a better life. I loved it.

I also loved that whole bit.

Yep. I caught that. Woohoo!

I thought the 'almost kiss' was really quick also.

I know. I loved it! Nearly melted off my seat with Don's whole 'We won't see you as much...' spiel.

Yeah, I kinda like that added bit of... friction. I think he's kinda liked her for awhile. But it's more obvious here. I think it adds a lot more emotion. Brings another dimension to the whole thing.

Donnie "stealing" April from Casey at that one part. Hehe, I loved that!

Great episode.

Great episode. Much better then the first Nano episode. Especially the focus on family. And the setting up for both Leatherhead's episode and the return of Garbageman. I know that Casey and April are going to hook up. It wouldn't be TMNT without those two. But I really was hoping that it would be Donny and April. They're just soooooo cute together.
