I missed it too b/c the stupid dvd recorder recored on the wrong channel! UGH!

shhh, we're aren't supposed to say that.

Here we go again...on my own: Jester's running commentary:

*shuriken* · 11-15-2008, 11:38 AM

I thought it was...amusing. Not great, but Bunny Leo took the cake for me, looking all pissed.

I liked it better than that Serling episode . Actually I thought this episode was actually pretty funny although it could have been better.

*Cipher* · 11-15-2008, 12:43 PM

My roomate and I saw the episode and both agreed it was the worst of the season. Aside from a couple of funny beats with the Raph frog and Hun at the end, it was a waste. Maybe its my natural disdain for online RPGs. On the up and up, Mikey continues to be written decently.

Oh, and everyone who was worried it would be like "The Gaminator" from Season Six, well, this was much worse than "The Gaminator."

TerranigmaFreak · 11-15-2008, 12:51 PM

This episode's downright hilarious. I loved the jokes and the plot twists. The MMORPG jabs are spot on funny and Raph totally stole the show. I cracked up when he was holding the sais as a frog.

*Zachatello00* · 11-15-2008, 12:56 PM

Look's like a bunch of 4kids guys are pretty excited about the Wrath of the Lich King release.

I simply loved Raph as a frog. Lol.

Oh I'm sure I'm not the only one who begs to differ.

What's that?

P.S. Preview is pretty good on the next episode.

Did I miss something was it a good episode because i couldn't see it. The news was on talking about the fire near my city. Just to saw I hope everyone is ok and I'll be praying for them. This is the second time it happend. The first time was the first episode. I hope I'm not wasting you guys time. Sorry if I am. Ok I'm done.

*Kunoichi_Haruko* · 11-15-2008, 01:24 PM

You know, I have to admit I chuckled a bit with the running commentary Leo was doing while trying to control his changeling powers. "This is humiliating..." Funny.

*Rooish* · 11-15-2008, 01:30 PM

For some reason, I think the hardest I ever laughed from this show was in "The Gaminator" when those duplicate Mikeys popped up. But that's just me.

Got nothing to say about this episode, as I didn't see it. I'll let y'all know when I do.

Aska_Badoura · 11-15-2008, 01:43 PM

I couldn't help but note how ridiculous the premise was... I thought I would find this mediocre, but I think the execution of it was pretty good, and a lot of fun. Site gags crack me up every time, and Leo's cycle of shapechanges had me in giggles. The glimpses of the players were funny, and I can cite a few times where someone's fallen asleep in a game like that, and you're poking at them to respond... LOL. Raph's totally deadpan delivery of whimsy was delightful. And I was truly flabbergasted by the identity of the Elfinator... though it makes some kind of weird sense, I think...

I think they could have gotten away with showing them as creatures other than Turtles (er, besides Raph, of course

), since their voices would be the same, but that's a minor point, really. And Raph actually paid attention to his fairy tales, even if he was a bit off the mark...

blue_angel99 · 11-15-2008, 01:48 PM

I enjoyed this episode so much! It was soooo funny.

Funny moments that can't make me stop giggling: 1)Raph being a Jester 2) Leo morphing into cute little animals 3) Mike's reaction when he found out they were going into the game

Most shocking, head scratching moments: 1) Raph volunteering himself to kiss the witch 2) Raph singing and dancing to distract the Ultimate Gamer 3) Hun turning out to be the Elfinator

Next weeks episode looks wicked dramatic.

Aneras713 · 11-15-2008, 02:24 PM

When I saw Raph singing I could not stop laughing

About 10 seconds before Raph tryed to kiss the witch, I accutually thought they might have to do that at first, but then a second later I relised that she would turn him into a frog.

And about Leo turning into all those different animals, I agree, "This is humilliating!"

As for this episode...truely garbage. The reason people are giving this higher marks is likely because there fans of the original series, or because we're "back in the present", which doesnt disguise anything at this stage. Going back to the present was often associated with "returning to quality". They have scarsely accomplished this. THREE out of Thirteen isnt a world record in anyone's book...and like FF, we're used to watching stupidity so we may as well reward it.

MMORPG humour was done better with South Park, and don't get me started on the ameture "shock value" comedy moment with who was also playing and enjoying the game. Watch season one, watch season four...is THIS what you're laughing at? Is this what great characters have come to?

People will enjoy any old s*it these days.

I want to say something sarcastic and mean... but you're in deep **** man...

*cowabunga14* · 11-15-2008, 05:38 PM

Not much to say about this episode, except it did feel a little out of place. It seemed as if the writers or whoever were attempting to mix The Wizard of Oz with a knights and dragons kinda deal.

Next week's looks like it's gettin' back into what we're used to and I'm intrigued about it.

Of course, somehow this episode would have been better in FF... somehow.... I dunno... if Viral trapped them in there or Jammerhead was involved in some way. It really seems like a repeat of the Helix episode. Plus, as much as I like Mikey, I've seen enough Mikey centric episodes the last 2 seasons to last me a life time.

This just came off as a really bad (third season) Captain N episode. It would have been much funnier if they really slaughtered the material... but they didn't. It's something that Duck Dodgers, Welcome to the NHK, and even the Simpsons did much better.

I think I'd be upset that I didn't have Helix anymore...actually. What a coincidence...Splinter bits in Super Quest... You'll be a jester...which is ok by me Raphie-boy... Tehe...Jester Raph... Wait...how is that nerd talking via his controller? The Ultimate Gamer....is he...THE ULTIMATE NINJA!!! Raph and Donny need an Ultimate nemesis. What a coincidence...Splinter bits in the chest... "After you, whiskers." Tehe. "Run away!" Is that a Holy Grail reference? That lil' guy is gonna pwn some noobs! wait....what... Toad-ally wrong token Raph....see what I did there. Leo turned into Klunk... Teenage Mutant Ninja Giraffe?? Frog Raph with sais... Did the sais shrink?? Donnie knows boss battles. WoW...is that a World of Warcraft reference. Gah...pwned from that voice... COOOBRAAAA!! Wait...Ultimate Gamer's weakness is Leo....irony. I'm surprised Froggie-Raphie didn't do the Michigan Jay. UG is...a girl...and the Elfinator is...Hun..why didn't he recognize the...oh....Avatars... Next Week: Casey!? WTH!? __________________ "Clearly, you're Ninja Turtling incorrectly." - Leo656
