He's not the only one, all I'm getting is last weeks episode. So I guess I'll do it the old fashioned way. *copies link* Yoink!

I can't see any thing new on this post or from the blog. I even deleted browsing history and nothing changed.

Hmmm how odd you guys are not seeing this stuff.

Anyone else wonder if he will cross paths with the turtles again and they will go on a special mission together to infiltrate the foot?

Ah, I see it now. Genuinely creepy episode. Kinda reminds me of "The Catwoman from Channel Six" from the OT.

It was a pretty good epsiode.

I mean if your a true TMNT fan, then the proposal was something, we we;re all waiting for to happen.

But cred' to the writers for the adding in the twist of the ring being the evil ring of yin, and thus possessing April's body for most of the epsiode, to the point that she was transformed into a yin bat demon.

Then the climax, were after Casey learns that he is the one that's got to take the ring off April since he was the one to put in on her in the first place, was great, finally showing that Casey can get the job done, when montavated correctly.

Overall, very good epsiode. Even had a spot in there for Donnie when Master Splinter is mentioned by Mikey.

And it looks like the one of the final epsiodes will be April and Casey's wedding, that is, unless they save it for next season.

PS. Anyone notice when April's transformation to the bat demon occurred, that the blackness ripped though her skin and changed her hair style and color. The reason I say this, is because those are the kinds of TF's are some of my favorite kind.

Till Next time.

I liked the episode all in all. Especially since it was a Casey centric episode. Plus it's nice we got to see Hun and the purple dragons again. There's not much else I can say. Most of it has already been said.

Is it just me or does Demon April look a lot like something Tsutomu Nihei could have come up with.

And this is the first episode of the season that I actually kind of liked. It was a glorified toy commercial, yes, but the engagement... well, it wasn't a typical "Let's bonk someone on the head"-episode. Speaking of which, Hun has a really tiny head.

But I must now buy the following toys:
  • TMNT Extreme BTTS Copter
  • Casey Jones Extreme BTTS Paddleboat
  • Casey Jones Extreme BTTS Paddleboat - Special Swan Edition
  • Purple Dragons Copter
  • Purple Dragons bike
  • Purple Dragons Hun's Bike
  • BTTS Hun
  • BTTS Casey
  • BTTS Demon April
  • BTTS Demon April - Special Cunnilingus Edition
  • BTTS Raph's Bike
  • BTTS Raph's Bike - Special Glow in the Dark Edition
  • BTTS Raph's Bike - Special lighted wheels edition
  • BTTS Casey's Bike

Damn, whoever makes these toys should hire me. I'd make awesome toys.

Okay, I must say that this was a good episode, probably the best of the one's we've seen so far. Sucks that we're only getting a rerun already, but they used to do this before. There'll be another probably month-long break in December, if they do what they did in the previous years...

Anyways, here's my thoughts...

Why is Raphael not in a REAL disguise? I would think that people would Still be scared of a green-faced noseless guy with a three fingered hand.

Poor Casey... He's so twitterpated in this episode. The idea of settling down and being a 'hubby' would scare any guy. "I love you like Gretzsky likes Hockey"... A true Warrior Poet. The kiss under the moonlight was very sweet, too. And then "GOONGALA"... moment, dead.

That ring is butt-ugly..

My god, Hun's voice is back. Thank god... I Loved his voice in the first seasons. He does break back to the ickier voice when they surround April,

Holy crap, April's hostile with that ring. I was half-waiting to hear a comment about 'that time of the month'. The flesh-tone beard was a little creepy, but the floating and voice was fun...

"...and we shall sacrifice oxen upon our altar!" Best line of the episode..

When I was first watching April's rampage through town and down to the sewers, I was wondering if her possessor was some sort of river/frog spirit, but that may have been short-minded thinking.

Quick, get her some butter! That'll take rings off easy...

Hun's reaction to Raphael's appearance was humorous, but the facial expressions bothered me. It was that exagerrated, anime-ish cartoonish stuff. I know it's a kid show, but please... we had better animation than that. And most of the episode was good otherwise.

The explanation of Yin and Yang was interesting, and I loved the dragons drawn. There's still a lot of potential with what they can create for this show..

There's nothing quite like a threat of dismemberment to get the evil pumping thorugh the veins! Giant demon April was.... unusual. I like the face, the wings looked like a bad Tribal tattoo..

And as for the convenient presence of the turtles in a HELICOPTOR.... They must've had to pry Donnie from his laboratory with a backhoe and some chains. And Where is the friggen NYPD?! Two helicoptors in the air, battling around this giant demon... The explosions (and possible deaths) were a surprise.

(Ya know, with all these air battles and weird critters, I would expect that with the amount of crap that happens to NYC with ALL of the different heroes and universes there are, NYC would have one monster budget, along with some copters to help with situations like this. I shudder to think of the poor souls that have to deal with THOSE costs..)

Seeing The guys chase down after April and Casey, my first thought was that those Blades are going to cut them to ribbons. But the day is saved, and the old man is returned. I almost thought he was a thinner, taller version of the Ancient One, but then the boys did the whole, "Hey, he reminds us of our dad." and Don's sudden return to "I killed our Dad, I suck", before Everybody's laughing and Happy and and needing their Bipolar medicine...


Still, overall I liked the episode. It's a big step in the story plotline, hopefully it will go well, and.... I hope we get some new eps after this next weekend.

Here's the trick to seeing today's blog update, at least both at my parents' house and here:

From the Back to the Sewer blog, click on "Previous".
Click on "Current".

There it is.

Am I the only one who thought Mikey's Maid of Honour comment was genuinely funny?
