Oh. I wanted to ask something. This PR/TNM crossover episode belonged to PR series, TNM - or to both of them?

It's true
The new toon fails for a few reasons
- Nobody liked it
- All Videogamews based on it Bombed, Making everyong HATE TMNT (including X-Play)
- Doesn't Surpass The Original Series
- Makes The Turtles look like total rejects (i.e. Gary The Rat, Heat Vision & Jack)

It belongs to Power Rangers In Space exclusivly, it was also written and directed by a guy who never worked on the Next Mutation, ironically, Judd Lynn is one of the series' best writers.

...Meh, it would'nt be the first time he fowled up, Lightspeed Rescue comes to my attention...

An FOXLUVA, you sniviling anti-fan, I can tolerate a lot of people who carry your attitude when preferring the original series over the new series, but only if they give constructive and well put together reasons, you have provided none of that

Just because som crappy games magazines and some bitter thirty year old virgins who've never read the comics dislike it, does'nt mean its' a world renowned opinion, so shove your "facts"

Indeed....where did you come up with those ideas? They are just kinda out there. The games argument might be valid (Up to the "everyone hating TMNT" part), but plenty of TMNT fans love the new sereis...myself included.

Even I think to say that the new series doesn't have a fan base is weird, it's like saying the old show didn't have one, but to each his own thinking.

Wow, everyone... I'm Nobody!

Seriously though, the new toon represents the Turtles as they should have been all along. Don't get me wrong... I love the old toon. It was my childhood, and it's good for laughs. (not at it, more like for the humor. And the fact that it screams '80s ) But I also love this one for its darker tone and awesome animation. Plus the fight choreography and the storyboarding... yeh. But it has in no wise failed. It would have "failed" if it had been cancelled by now. But 4 seasons and probably at least two more? That's "success." It may get as many seasons as the OT if we're lucky.

Yeah, the video games aren't all that... but I find them a fun diversion. A little optimism never hurt anyone.

besides... in what way does the New Toon have to do with the ambivalent debate on whether NM or Charming is better?

Its like... I have to pick between apples and oranges, so I'm gonna pick pineapple.

although you can't wipe yourself with the next mutation, Charmin doesn't have a shell and shells, well... they kick shell!
