Will Seth Green stay for the entire run of the show now?

Riiiiight. I'm sure I'm not even a blip. Now Andrew, Powder, and Archon ought to be on the list.

Hey, don't sell yourself short, Jester. You're still pretty well known around here, and you're hilarious too.

And, hey, age isn't anything. Rob's in his fifties and he still kicks a** as Donnie, so there you go. I think Seth is awesome as Leo and brings new life to the character just as he should. And it's fitting that there would be a change considering what Leo has gone through. I suspect Leo's still going to go through some mental issues as well concerning the attack. Hope we see that in his vision quest.

Then the writers made Willow into a lesbian.

They were going to regardless. They tinkered with the idea of making Zander gay, but went with Willow instead. It was going to make no difference if Seth stayed or left. That being said, it still annoys me he left and the episode of Angel he was in was one of the best IMO.

Welp, even if I was living stateside still, I probably still wouldn't know about this program seeing as how I don't watch TV much at all outside of stuff like NCIS and Law & Order: SVU.

The program is Netflix only. It's based off a book which was based off a woman's experience (at least the majority of the first season is, second season not so much). The show is good, but Davetello is right about Biggs. Honestly, his parts are kind of boring especually in the second season. Laura Prepon (Donna, That 70s Show) gets the best bits. I like Seth so far, though. Am excited to hear him more. I'm sure he'll stick around.

[BubblyShell22]

Yes, Orange is the New Black is based off of a couple's real life experience, but I don't care to watch it because it doesn't appeal to me.

I'm excited to hear Seth in tonight's episode for sure.

I feel like his voice is ruining everything. Also it almost seems as if they're making Leo act different, which is not cool.

How do you know Nick wanted him promoting the show? Especially after the controversy that was surrounding him at the time. If anything Biggs did his job in the booth and that was that. If he didn't care he wouldn't have done such a great job to begin with. You guys really take the business end of things way too personal.

Weeell....on that part, I think there's also people there to have him read the line 20 more times if need be if it's not coming out like they want.

What's your point? That's true for every voice actor working in the industry. I mean, are you saying it diminishes his work? And if so, why his and not Greg Cipes? Because Cipes goes to conventions?

[IndigoErth]

The point? He's an actor, it's not necessary for him to give a crap in order to pull off a good job for it.

Whether Nick wanted him doing anything for it or not prob can't be known to any of us, but unless he was somehow agreed that he wouldn't for some reason out of Nick's concern for what he'd do... promoting it at least a little would have at least been a small positive light on someone who otherwise tends to make himself look like a jackass.

Well he did get the crap kicked out of him. He probability suffered brain damage.

How is Leo acting any different then before? Were you expecting him to still act chipper and wide eyed? That Leo is gone man.

You don't come back the same from beating like that.

How so? If anything, the show is being very realistic in this regard. He suffered a traumatic experience. Anyone who has suffered through or been through any type of trauma has some type of a reaction to it and "change".

Take kids who have been abused in some way. Maybe before the aforementioned abuse, the child was very outgoing or playful, etc., but after the traumatic events, the child may become closed up and withdrawn. Maybe develop a lack of trust in people.

Not comparable, but I was living here in Japan when that huge tsunami and earthquake hit. I didn't realize it at the time, but after that event, I was obviously going through PTSD. I didn't realize that until after I moved back home April 2011 to deal with my uncle's death and arrangements. Even when back on US soil, I still felt like I was still experiencing the earthquake, the aftershocks (which lasted a long time after the earthquake here in Japan). Then later on that year in VA we had an earthquake. I was at my new teaching assistant job and started to freak out a little and grew panicky, but kept it together for the kids.

So yeah, people usually do change in some way after something tragic or traumatizing happens to them. How people react, however, varies from person to person.

Sorry about getting into the "personal" stories here....

Yep, this is so very true! Some people never do get over their trauma in the end. But, Leo is surrounded by a strong and well grounded family, they'll help him bounce back, but, he is going to be changed somewhat, and that him getting back to full throttle should take some time. I'm glad to see that they are taking their time. (Too bad I didn't get a chance to watch the latest episode, thanks alot for the heads up Nick!)

Any chance you have the Nick 2 channel? Saw that it repeats on there at 11pm.

I might. I guess I can see if I get my DVR to record it, but with Nick's scheduling, it really screws up. I can record any episode, from any television station, except for Nick TMNT! Go figure!

Hearing stuff like this has me even more convinced that the show's ratings is due to stuff like this.

How will people know to watch episodes if it's not even promoted as to when and where you can find them? Regardless of the story or the plot (it could be the greatest in the world!), but with this type of stuff going on, I don't think it would matter and the ratings would still drop.

He did promote the show- when it first came out. Then the controversy hit and he stopped. Hmm...

Nope, I don't have Nick 2, and like I firgured would happen, it never recorded and there seems to be no future showing of this episode, so I just simply can't watch it.

http://www.nick.com/

The latest episode is not being promoted, at all on Nick.com. It just has a thing called "Spring Cleaning" but that's it, and it's on the second page. Considering it's Friday night, TMNT should be promoted on the first page. But nothing, no "new episode tonight, check your local listings" and, my DVR isn't even picking up Buried Secrets, at all. I thought the reran the episodes on Sundays. Well, if they do, my system is not seeing it. I agree with you, Nick is the reason why the show is so low in the ratings. When it was doing fine in the beginning, they took it away from it's slot to build a fanbase for their other shows, and then they kept on bouncing TMNT around, so it shouldn't be of no surprise that the ratings are crashing. Sad thing, this is something networks do to shows that A-are getting poor ratings to begin with, so are trying other venues, but TMNT was not this case initially, or B-, it's a show someone in power doesn't want to deal with anymore, so they bounce it around on purpose in hopes the viewership would drop, and then they can use that as reason to cancel. Either way, I am having this sinking feeling, that someone at Nick loving thier Spongebob, but doesn't much care for TMNT.

Check Nick (reg channel) for 11am Sunday if you'd be able to see it then, that's my other backup and see it listed via my cable website. (Nick 2 also looks to repeat Sunday at 2pm if you know anyone who has it.)
