This. The fact that we see Mikey sparring evenly with Leo in the Vengeance is Mine promo suggests all of the brothers are around equal strength.

At this point I'm kinda bored with them and more interested in the shredder and his forces.

I hope the invasion gets dealt with in the season finale while they save the whole thing with Shredder and the Foot Clan as a set-up for season 3.

[MCLeo28]

I wonder if Shredder will attempt to take back Karai and even mutate her in the Season 2 Finale and Splinter has his side-story where he tries to rescue her.

This was actually a funny episode. Way funnier than Pizza Face.

And Donnie and April managed to be in the same vicinity the former not going coo coo for Coco Puffs.

Speaking of voices, Dominic was better than last week. People were saying he was a tad flat last week, but nobody has really made a deal today. Maybe because of the Seth Green announcement they've come to terms with Biggs not returning.

Watched this one late lastnight via iTunes.
I have to be honest that this is probably my least favorite episode of the season.
Like others have said it's a bit of a re-hash of events and jokes no less.
I really didn't find many of the jokes in this one to be all that funny either.
My favorite part was the return of the Kraang SeeSerpent and the interaction with the turtle sub.
I did like that Casey & April came along even if I still don't care for this version of Casey (can't put my finger on it either but he he just erks me).
I also loved Don's reveal at the end of the Turtle Mech.
It reminded me of the old Metalhead Turtlevan Mech that Playmates never produced + one of A.C. Farley's TMNT designs.

At least they put a fresh new spin on it; with the Kraang taking over world leaders and dominating the Earth from the inside as oppose to their last plan!

I find this concept much more exciting!

Yeah but I mean the part where raph discovered their plans and tells the others and it kinda looks like everyone is gonna get set to stop the big kraang invasion for the season finale.... This was all season 1 stuff. Have the season finale be about Karai and the retromutagen. Something different.

Agreed. I find it refreshing when he doesn't.

Overall, not a bad episode. My expectations weren't much but I was glad to see it was really enjoyable. Nice to see a Raph centric episode that's funny and fun.

The original invasion was with the Technodrome, only. Now it's going to have more then just that. So yeah this is the invasion of earth, but it's like "Okay, this time we're going to invade the earth and show we're serious about it."

Krang and Shredders desires to destroy and concur Earth also becomes same old same old in the OT

True. But this show is supposed to be beyond that. It's not the 80s any more.

I believe it was Einstein who said "Insanity is doing the same thing over and over again, and expecting different results." And it's a no brainer (pun intended) that the Kraang are quite insane.

[Garfield]

I enjoyed it. I like mind switch episodes in shows. Its got that silver age camp that I like.

I like Kraang Raph fighting to survive.

[ranger_scout]

Today's episode reminded me of the 80's episode where Splinter and Shredder switched bodies. It was pretty enjoyable.

[blindturtle02]

I liked this one. It felt a little like Raph Drives em Wild where he switched minds with that cab driver. Loved seeing the Technodrome again. I've been waiting for that. Really dug the Kraang laugh. It struck me funny. Great seeing the Dimension X sea creature again. Poor lovestruck lug just can't seem to catch a break! Very fun episode, and can't wait for Vengeance Is Mine next weekend.

[BubblyShell22]

This episode was definitely funny. Loved the switching thing and how Raph tried to imitate the Kraang. Kind of reminded me of when Cartman pretended he was a robot to fool Butters. Also loved how Mikey and Casey bonded and that Don didn't get all goo goo eyed with April. That ought to keep the anti-Apriltello people happy. Casey and April's switch was funny too, and I laughed when Casey said he liked being a girl. Reminds me of times I wish I was a guy sometimes. Splinter dispensing wisdom was good, too, and I don't think the plot is repetitive to season 1. The Kraang know their plan failed last time, so instead of terraforming the Earth as they tried to do, now they're going to try and switch minds with people to take over the world. Seems a bit more threatening to me, though now they'll have to rethink their plan. Overall, a pretty decent ep. Bring on "Vengeance is Mine" next week. I'm stoked for that one!

Miss part of the episode, can you tell me if there was any moment where the location of the lair was about to be discovered, please?

Also Casey Jones seems to be a an anime fan, saying how he hates dubbed anime, and prefer subtitles.

Also when Casey switches minds with April, He got a little pervy when in April's body, pinching her butt.

Yeah Casey got some points cause he likes subbed anime and he did say that he liked being in the body of a girl so..... Raph and Casey shippers got their opening!

I also noticed that the clock on the Shellraiser said 2 o'clock so.... does that mean all these people were hanging out at 2 in the morning? Was it a Saturday or something?

No. Kraang-raph was too busy thinking about getting away or attacking the turtles to consider using this to his advantage to find their lair and tell the others.
