I'm glad I'm not the only one who feels this way. I found the Channel 6 crew in the OT annoying and pointless as well. Burne is ok, I like him. But Vernon and Irma were the worst TMNT supporting characters IMO. Their characters didn't have much of a point in the show.

Nevertheless, it will be interesting to see what Arnett does with the Vernon character.

I enjoyed the Channel 6 crew, they provided some comedic relief for the show and at least displayed that April did have a life outside of the Turtles by showing her workplace and how she managed to help them from a public relations perspective.

The only reason the Channel 6 crew is important, is because April is a main character of the show, and she is the main link (or sometimes the only link) the Turtles have to humanity.

The Channel 6 news crew was implemented effectively in the show without taking too much attention away from the Turtles. I just don't know if it will be as effective, and work as good in this movie.

Channel 6 crews are hilarious. I look forward to them being in action.

Most of Irma an Vernon's scenes in the OT were hilarious. The show wouldn't have been the same without them.

Now THAT I can agree with! I can think of several episodes off the top of my head that would not have been nearly as good/funny without those two. Green With Jealousy, Attack of 50 ft Irma, April Gets In Dutch, Were-Rats From Channel Six, are just a few off the top of my head. I just realized most of those feature Irma mostly, but Vernon had his share of funny moments, too.
