Loved this ep. Thought it was sweet when they saved Don and Raph or someone said that they always look after their own. And yeah I did notice Raph's sais and Don's Bo staff in the one scene. Especially in the aerial view.

Heh heh, I guess I wasn't the only one to notice the weapons goof.

Ah well, it was still an awesome episode. The action was fantastic. I can't wait for the big escape next week.

The Triceraton Empire SO reminds me of The Klingon Empire. The story behind the proud warrior race forgetting their honorable traditions under the leadership of a tyrant dictator. I swear I heard Michael Dorn there for a second.

I'm here in another new episode thread.

This one has alot of Gladitor referance in it.

I kinda like Rez & Rozz, the Triceraton annocers. I don't know they remind me of the Double Headed Pod-Racing annocer from Phantom Mence. These guys would go in my favorite non-main charaters of the Show.

I like the part when they were expected to be the new dumies for the Gladitors and the avoided every move. "No Hands"

I like the parts when they get the Punishner all mad and he ends up in a pile of...uh...Purple Furtlelisar?

The Prime Leader was more like Ceaser in this episode.

Triamus is kinda like Brutus Maximus from Gladitor. Only maximus didn't had a scar on his Eye lid.

The Turtles get there weapons back. I like the part when Don takes control of the Tricerton Speeder and they manage to go on the bacolny and show no mercy to the Prime Leader.

another great episode. I can't wait to see the Invasion of the Human Fedret and the conclusion to return to earth.

The final part for the Space Arca. is just around the corner.

If the TMNT were knocking down Triceratons so easily, just think about what they SHOULD be able to do with the Foot.

no offence I can't wait till they get back to earth, I may not have read the comics like most of you but as a old time turtle series fan the space stuff bored me mostly reminding me of the old demention X shows from the old series. I hope this doesnt hurt the new series but I like to see the turtles in more realistic situations like in the 1st season. I know we got plenty of that coming with the new sagas only begining to open up. Mabie its my age but, All I can say is i'm not a big space fan

Their fighting skills have improved since Return to N.Y.

Fighting againt tough Triceratons are like fighting against Hun.

But the Foot Ninjas are now too easy to beat.

I had to tape it, because I had to go to my cabin with my family in the mountains. There was some good snowboarding. Any way, I just saw the episode and it was great. I didn't like the begining, but by the end I wished I had the Space part 5. Overall the gladiator scenes were great, and Mikey was funny, but not as much as usual. Nice to see Raph narrating.

Why isn't Heavy Metal on the poll? That's what this ep. and, ALL of these "Turtles in Space" eps. have really been reminding me of all along.

Although, I detected some serious roman-gladiators feel to this one (Never saw the movie you're all talking about, though.

Awesom ep, dudes! I watched it right after I was done work and it totally rocked!! I laughed when Fugitoid went "Boo Yah!"

BTW, did anyone notice how Don kept making wisecracks about that guard named Gruel? "Hey look, Gruel's serving gruel!"

I also like the part when they used Gladitor Weapons that were simalar to their Ninja weapons. It was just like last week with the cleaning items as weapons.

so far the TMNT in Space is almost over. I'm looking forward to see their chance to return to earth. Final episode of an episode group is always known to be the best of them all.

I'm just glad I've never watched that show. I have seen a commercial with "Mr. Cheeks." Wow.

I'm not s'posed to be on the computer, but who cares, better late than never

I thought this was a pretty good episode, I loved the hands part as well as Leo' strategy against the monster. As always I can't wait until next week.
