Its just rather perplexing. Am I really the only person here flabbergasted why this wasn't made into a big event?

Why would they? Granted, it might be a little strange it's just another filler episode but maybe that's the joke? Maybe the joke is that this type of event is typically just pointless fan service that adds nothing of substance?

Because the show is "aimed at kids." You know, the target demographic that wasn't around for the 80s cartoon.

This thread needs to be locked!

Anyway, like others have said, just be happy we're getting a crossover and that all the original voice actors are reprising their roles.

CyberCubed, master of repetitive and annoying complaints. If you were the executive producer, every episode would be a Mirage adaption with Fred Wolf characters.

I was shocked and a bit bummed but don't confuse time with quality. Forever Red is a single episode crossover to celebrate 10 years of power rangers and it was great, to the point. The legendary battle to celebrate 20 years was a two parter and absolutely terrible.

That's pretty much what every incarnation has been.

I'm not really disappointed all that much to be honest as it will be a matter of time before we'll get to see another OT / 2K12 crossover, seeing as this is what, the second time that the OT Turtles have come onto the show?

I can appreciate one episode. If it receives a lot of viewers that like the crossover episode, then more are bound to follow.

That's a shame if it's only one episode. Though I wouldn't be surprised of they returned in another down the road; would seem a bit of a waste to create models for them if they'd only be a one-time thing.

I feel like the crossover should have happened after the space arc was over and the Turtles were back in New York. That way they would have had more freedom to make a big thing out of it. Instead its just another one of the "space arc" episodes and it feels rushed.

If this crossover goes ok, maybe they'll do another Turtles Forever thing and bring in the Mirage, IDW, 2k3, etc., Turtles. Hm, maybe not IDW because of the Donatello situation and it is still going...

I'm pretty sure the situation in IDW is resolved.

If the story only requires a regular length episode then I'm cool with that. I'd rather have a solid normal episode than have them bloat things and unnecessarily dilute the story they're trying to tell just for the sake of making it longer.

The most important thing is that it's going to be a TON of fun to hear the original voice cast together again.
