Talkback: Laird's 2k3 development notes!

[Killer Moth]

Nice to know he actually did have Slash and Tokka in mind for Hun's mutation. Awesome.

But the real reason for the post:

And while I'm on the subject... when I think back to the old '88 show, I keep hearing in my mind Krang's whiny/burpy voice calling for "Saki" (typically spoken in a drawn-out fashion like this -- "Saaaakiii") when he addressed the '88 Shredder. I think we should have him do that at least once in this project.

I haven't seen the uncut version in a while, yet I don't recall Forever Krang ever saying "Saki." (Or did he and I missed it?) If so, it is a shame it got dropped, but good for Laird for remembering it. I never did understood why that trait of Krang's was dropped after the original mini-series or first season ended. Oh, well.

[ChromeDome]

From what I can remember Krang only refers to Shredder as Saki in the first season of the 1987 series, afterwards he calls him Shredder. Although I maybe mistaken.

I know that in Turtle Tracks, Krang asks for Shredder to come and see him and calls him Saki, but Shredder insists that Krang call him Shredder.

Why do they keep calling the Fred Wolf show and the characters from it 88, when the show premiered in 87?
