then Mikey says " I love tempura!"

the part that irks me is....he has a hollowed out kraang on his head and he still seems to be acting exactly the same....(like the writers are afraid to make Mikey mature or smart or something)

I just noticed that the next new episode is on at 8pm which means it's on at 12am UK time so if it's not up on I Tunes before, it looks like I won't be watching it until I wake up in the morning and cross my fingers someone will have it up on livestream. (I don't no if you can livestream it while it's airing on Nickelodeon at the same time)

Yeah, pretty much, which is why it bothers me when people complain about Mikey not progressing when it's obvious that he has compared to season 1. Seriously, if Mikey was still acting the way he was in season 1, I would be complaining.

He has improved, and if one can't see that I wonder how one missed it, and to be honest, I get the joke. Mikey loves to eat. He loves food. His brain jumping to food doesn't surprise me at all, especially if he's been eating Kraang or something for the past so many months.

I wonder if they're going to go anywhere with all of the negative things that's happened with him, though. He was beaten by Tigerclaw twice, nearly killed by Slash, almost exploded, gets trapped in Dimension X, saw Karai get mutated, the lair invasion, and will see Leo get thrown through a window, completely beaten up. I wonder if they'll keep him lighthearted as a defense mechanism.

Yeah, Mikey's childish behavior could be a way of coping with serious situations. . Kinda how in the first movie where Mikey ignores or doesn't pay attention to Donnie's question of "Have you ever thought about what Splinter said about being gone?"

or in Good Genes where Mikey was treating the situation as though Donnie was in bed with the flu and not some feral monster.

That's a good way of putting it. Mikey's probably troubled on the inside, but uses happiness to cope.

It sucks you cant see it due to the time, but I am hoping the later time is due to the fact that the content in the new episodes might be a bit too mature for the littl kiddies to handle, so Nick is just sticking it in the 8pm slot to avoid soccer mom issues.

I wonder if Mikey cracks and all his negative feelings will start pouring out, when they are at the farmhouse.

That's what I'm hoping for. I'm pretty much expecting it. There has to be some reason they keep letting things happen to Mikey.

I wonder if A Foot Too Big is about Bigfoot/Sasquatch. That would give even more credence to those April - Donnie kiss storyboards.

Probably, but quite frankly, we didn't need anymore conformation from what we knew.

The previews about them fleeing the city, the Vision Quest concepts, and the Vision Quest figures pretty much supported from what Donnie was wearing in the boards, what we looked at was real. Based on what the titles so far show, it looks like it's going to be in "Buried Secrets", which could be based on multiple things that occur.

The only thing that remains from that board is what the "music box" mention is that Donnie is talking about. I think personally that will start in the Season 2 finale.

I think the "Buried Secrets" is gonna be the Raph episode on how he got his scar.

The titles sound interesting. What was the production number for the Creeps concept art?

I think the best interpretation of him cracking, would be him remaining silent. Him training in the barn, being quiet, not joking at all, maybe actually smacking Raphael back or just stopping his arm in mid swing, and giving him a dirty look that he is in no mood to play, can speak millions. Heck, maybe him ignoring Splinter's orders, and Splinter goes to whack him with his cane, and Mikey just dodges it, grabs it with lightning fast speed, and throws it like a spear, in the middle of a bulls eye, and then just walk away silently. I would like something to showcase where, when he focus and serious, he is truly the best naturally gifted athlete/fighter/ninja on the team and you want to be glad he is on your side.
