It's a pile of crap and nothing can ever beet the lost season in it's darkness factor it is the king of all TMNTdumb.
But seriously folks TMNT is TMNT no matter what shape or form it's in light, dark, brown or green they're the turtles, and instead of looking for reasons as to why one thing is better than the other how about being happy that there had been any new episodes and new stories at all.
I disagree with this, if fans are just going to accept what we are given just because it's ninja turtles than we are really saying that we have no standards. If some fans liked FF good for them, but other who don't have a reason to be peed off at the change that was made in the format. Because to us it was a step down from how the show was. And it's not the fact that Fast Foward wasn't "dark" or the story lines where crappy that pissed me and other fans off, it's the fact that the turtles characters where watered down and basically made into flashy, bratty, nock offs of them selves with all their nuances stripped. I didn't think Fast Foward plots and story telling was all that bad but the way the characters where simplified and "jazzed up" to appeal to younger kids just took any enjoyment or appeal Fast Foward might have had.

Sarcasm look it up Belly Jean.
I know your new around here but the reason I said what I did there was because 1. we've have people bashing FF logn enough now, it's over get over it, I never even talk about the show unless it's brought up.
2. Everyone acts like 2k3 and the lost season are just so omgz DARK and adult, I mean really?
No really they're not and yes they tried to fit their demographic lord forbid they do something right and get good raitings on a show for kids by a company named 4kids.

Looks like the whole channel is losing some steam...and TMNT is losing it's head over the others. Hopefully that will change when the new episodes come. I really advise 4kids to maybe change tmnt's time slot up a little bit though...competing with Spider-man isn't gonna be easy from here on out.

Yeah, you'd think since there's 2 Chaotic slots, they'd sacrifice one of those.

It also needs to be pointed out that in many markets, especially the big New York market, the LS goes head to head with the new Spider-Man show. Pretty good for a mid-season replacement going against the CW's new "franchise". (And thank god for DVRs...)

Is the Lost Season scheduled for re-runs once it's finished airing for the first time?

Nope. They are starting over with episode 1 of season 1. I posted the schedule for May 10th here:
