Official Ep Discussion: S3 Ep6: "Race with the Demon"

[travelingcat]

You know Rob Paulsen had a lot of fun voicing this one.

I enjoyed this one. Not as good as Dream Beavers though. I was afraid there was going to be some idiot ball between them involving the love triangle, but nope. Casey wants to personally take down Speed Demon after being challenged by it, actually begs Donnie to help fix up his hotrod, but gives up trying to beat Speed Demon so he can save Donnie. It didn't require April for them to work together. Also liked the ABC insults.

Random thing, but I really love the detail that went into to animating the chickens. It's pretty accurate.

The only thing I didn't like about this episode were the parts with Dr. Cluckingsworth MD. Just...why? Oh lucky lucky, the bird that accidentally gets mutated instantly knows complicated stuff and can conveniently be a navigator for the Turtle Racer. So forced. Also, the turtles need to ban themselves from keeping normal pets. They just can't stop them from getting into mutagen.

Well, we see him get pretty mad at Speed Demon just for knocking him off the road, and tries to personally stop it on his own. I'm certain we'll see this behavior again once Hun kicks his butt and cracks his nuts, starting their rivalry.

Yeah really. But then, what cop would look at the Shellraiser and try to pull it over?
