He's review for season 2 goes up for the public next week, however it currently up and unlisted on youtube exclusively for his Patreon subscribers, if it's not again this site's rules, could i upload it here?

I highly recommed you check out his past retrospectives one the DC Animated Universe, and Sonic the Hedgehog series

All these years, and I don't think I ever realized (until he pointed it out) that Donatello's mask shading is all black in the intro sequence and "Things Change" but not in any other episode.

I really like this guys series reviews. After watching the 1st 4Kids TMNT video I had the DCAU series playing at 1.5x speed as background noise and enjoyed it immensely. (It works because DC/WB forced him to mask the clips due to copyright, so the video is often obscured.)

Thanks for posting. I really enjoyed these. Makes me want to revisit the series. I share most of his opinions on the quality of the show, and he even enlightened me to a few ideas I hadn't thought about. Season 3 and 4 were the best, but also marked the beginning of the end. The final season was arguably the worst in restrospect..I've never watched through it a second time, outside of the final episode, which saved it a little.

I binge watched all 7 episodes of the review, this man offers such fantastic insight into the show, down to the smallest detail. Can't wait for his Turtles Forever review now, I'm guessing he is going to have mixed feelings on it.

I have to say, I completely missed how Splinter was aware of Shredder being an Utrom when he was travelling to Japan with the baby turtles, it kinda changes how you look at the entire show.

Shredder could've done more than blow up the Channel Six building. I don't mean as far as murdering Splinter, but think of the possibilities if censors were not an issue.

Shredder and Krang combined had the biggest arsenal of any villains in all of the cartoons.

His Turtles Forever review is out. Honestly, it was really interesting that he got to talk to one of the staff who worked on the special, with the latter admitting that a lot of the production staff were unhappy with how the FW turtles were handles but it was outside their control (possibly due to Peter Laird).
