the channel six characters in Red Sky

[Sage Ninja]

If every one remembers the last three seasons of the classic toon, commonly known as "Red Sky" you'll know that most of the channel six characters Burns Thomas, Vernon, and Irma where fazed out of the series completely. (Even April was getting pushed to the back ground in these later seasons.)

With the new tone red sky was going for, I guess it was inevtiable that these guys where dropped and no longer served any more purpose. But does anyone think they could have been used instead of dropped like they did?

It seemed like in Red Sky the channel six characters where getting their characters made over to be more menacing and bitter. Burn's was launching a campaign to show the turtles to the public as monsters that where the cause of all the cites problems as an act of vengence for their hand in destroying his channel six building and Vernon was delberately telling lies about them on tv. Then suddenly they where dropped and never seen again when April cut off ties with channel six and went freelance. Do you think instead of dropping them colpletely that the channel six people could have been used more in Red Sky instead of being completely dropped from the series?
