[Luckyday]

Maybe it will be sitcom of a parental cephalopod living in the suburbs?

Also save to say the Turtles will be watching a new show in Season 3, since the anime show is over like the Star Trek one before that. Wonder what they'll watch next?

Anyone notice that they never get to watch the finale? Also, now wouldn't Mikey be the oldest turtle?

Depends. They could go the route that Next Mutation did where the Turtles weren't even from the same batch, and they actually might be completely different breeds altogether, and maybe they are even aged more far apart than a few seconds/minutes/days or months, but perhaps years. But, more than likely, it might be a running gag that Mikey is now aged older than the rest and he might pull that one once in a while when he thinks his other brothers aren't taking him seriously.

All those Dolphin Tale 2 Commericals every 5 minutes.

So, unless I am forgetting something, we have had Leo and Raph and now Mikey telling the bad guys to "get away from my brother!" Donnie hasn't had that chance yet, has he?

Didn't Ciro say at SDCC that the next spoof will be based on a fantasy series that started in 1981?

I'm calling it! I really think it's going to be a Smurfs spoof.

[Metalwolf]

Couple things I noticed in this episode:

Those blister-like things on the sides of the Kraathatrogen that the Kraang get their mutagen from are actually breasts or udders that baby Kraatharogen nurse from!

If time passes a lot faster in Dimension X, then wouldn't it mean that the some of the Kraang might actually be hundreds of years old?

Oh My God, this episode was amazing. Mikey was awesome, he developed so much in this episode, hope it continues.

Will post thoughts late.

His brothers are not April. :p. I kid, I hope it'll come during the finale: hell, I expect it to.

Loved this episode so much: great action, a Mikey-centric episode, Leatherhead making an impressive comeback and an excellent set up for the finale.

[Aaronardo]

Yeesh, Nickelodeon, it's just stupid choice after stupid choice for you, isn't it?
Not going to watch this episode since I'll be away and I'd just rather watch this episode on TV (Chinatown Ghost Story came off as a much better episode for me on TV than on my phone. I really have no idea why).

[TurtleTitan97]

Awesome episode overall. It was great to see Leatherhead come back.

I thought it was better on tv as well.

I think it's either He-man or maybe Thundercats.

Yeah, I totally thought that scene where the turtles journey into Dimension X looked a lot like the cut scene in Turtles in Time.

[CyberCubed]

I wonder how they can include Triceratons when Dimension X is a barren wasteland?

[victory_angel]

Maybe the Triceraton's aren't from Dimention X but actually from another world entirely.

[OrangeNinja1987]

Awesome episode! There were a few things that felt off but this was definitely one of the best episodes of season 2, (and that's saying something, since the good episodes of season 2 have been awesome, with a couple misfires). I'd really like to see Mikey continue to develop, staying funny but still becoming a better fighter and less clumsy. Dimension X was awesome looking and I loved the weird gravity.
How long were the turtles gone? Have Splinter and April been searching for them for weeks, or in the case of Mikey, months? I'd like to see that addressed.
One problem I had with this episode was that Raphael and Leonardo felt off most of the time. May be partly due to Leo's voice change, which I am still not used to (Green better be good). Not that I hated how they acted this episode - they just felt out of character. That's a small nitpick.
Favorite moments for me were probably when Donatello stood underneath Leo because of the messed up gravity and when Leatherhead said, "I'd rather die on my feet than live on my knees!" and Donnie yelled "Well, I don't! I have kneepads!"

[The Turtle Terminator]

Hang on, were the Triceratons in this episode?!

[Vicky82]

My thoughts

I'll put under spoilers just incase

Spoiler:

Wow this episode was amazing, it had lots of action and the visuals and music were great. Mikey was awesome, he was more focused and mature.
Mikey knew what he was doing as he knew how Dimension X worked and it was awesome that he took the leader role.

Leatherhead returns, he's been spying and destroying Kraang. he's more older as he's been in Dimension X for decades, he has more battlescars too.
Leatherhead just killed a Kraang.
Leo, Raph and Mikey watching the last episode of Robo Mecha Force but why are they watching it in Mikey's bedroom.
Robo Mecha Force final episode is Foreshadowing the TMNT final episode.
Awww at Mikey face when Leo said that he's been messing up lately.
Loved the memory pics , that last pic of Mikey and Leatherhead, my heart, so cute
Mikey risks his life and runs through the portal into Dimension X on his own and into an unknown world, he must really care about Leatherhead.
Leo, Raph and Donnie go in after him.
Wow Dimension X is a crazy place.
Leo, Raph and Donnie fighting some electric worm things
Loved the shot wear Leo is covering Donnie's mouth when they hide from electric worms
Awww! Raph is worried about Mikey.
Yikes! Leo nearly gets impailed with that shard falls near him.
Poor Leatherhead being tortured.
Leo says, don't touch anything but he ignores it when he sees a cute creature.
Leo mimicking that cute creature 'Mop Mop' 'Mop Mop' lol
Cute creature isn't cute, it's a big ass monster and it goes after the guys.
Wow! Mikey swings in and saves his brothers, loved the 'keep away from my brothers' line.
The time difference between earth and Dimension X, reminds me of Gargoyles, 1 hour on Avalon is 1 day in the main world.
WoW! Mikey acting mature and knows how Dimension X works.
Yuck! Mikey eating some worm slime.
Mikey, hanging upside down like Spiderman.
Mikey taking on Granitor and Traag on his own.
Mikey taking on the leader role is awesome.
Loved the final fight with the Kraang
Lol, Leo asks Leatherhead to give him a lift and leatherhead grabs him by the face and throws him.
Lol at Raph having a boxing match with a Kraang droid,
Lol at the different shaped portals.
Lol Mikey pushing Donnie out of the way to get the portal up
Awww! Mikey thinks he's going to be back being a screw up now he's back on earth
Loved the high 3 at the end.

Best Mikey centric episode so far. This episode proved that Mikey, shines best when he’s on his own and he can figure out solutions.
Hopefully now he can come up with good ideas, and has this newfound self-confidence, he can take that forward in upcoming episodes. Hope his development sticks.

Can't wait till the season final, I wonder if it be released online early.

Ok, this has to be the most adorable pic ever.

Precisely! & though it's not new or exclusive to this episode, every time the turtles get electrocuted it looks like this-

Also, The Kraang had a spidery lookin' robot thing that reminded me of one of the droids from the game. The little round one whose head pops up to shoot lasers.
