What is your favorite episode from the end of Season 3 (Volume 6)?

*pannoni1* · 11-19-2011, 10:32 AM

It's that time again, and now this takes us to the end of probably the most classic season of the whole show. I'm including "Plan Six" on here since it's included in the Volume 6 DVD and that if I included it with the rest of the syndicated Season 4 episodes, it would win in a landslide. It represents the time when Mike starts using his grappling hook unfortunately.

This DVD amusingly enough has Season 3's three most disliked episodes, "The Turtle Terminator," "The Gangs all here," and "Mr. Ogg goes to Town."

Other than those 3, I loved all the other eps on this set. Probably the Season 3 finale though.

For me, "The Big Break-In" holds the most nostalgic value, I can still remember how I was as a kid reacting to the Technodrome resurfacing.

Shredderville also gets brownie points.

well dispite loving The Gang's All Here as a Michelangelo themed episode I picked Bye Bye Fly he was so cute as a gerbil

Mine is The Big Ripoff. I especially liked the end of it when Shredder and Krang finally got the Technodrome moving.

The Big Ripoff is terrible. I haven't stayed awake for that episode in years.

Gotta go with The Big Break In, followed by The Big Blowout, The Grybyx, and Bye Bye Fly.

I voted for The Big Blow Out. If TMNT was only a mild success and was just a 65-episode cartoon, it would have been one of the best finales of all-time, and is second only to Shreddered & Splintered to me in terms of Season Finales. After that, the Big Break In is second, followed by Big Rip Off (saving April was pretty dramatic in that episode with her almost suffocating along with some good action), and then Plan Six. My least favorite is Mister Ogg Goes to Town. I actually like the Turtle Terminator pretty good as it was a decent take on the Terminator movies. The Missing Map is also above-average to me, as there was even a series of maps issued in different toys by Playmates that lead to the turtles' lair!

The Big Break In for me because I tend to prefer the set-up of a big battle rather than the actual battle itself. But the trilogy of The Big episodes are among my favourites of the whole series.

This is probably my least favourite disc of the ones from Season 3 though.

*CyberCubed* · 11-20-2011, 04:35 PM

It's amusing because the series could have ended right here at the end of Season 3, and it still would have been a great show. I don't think the series would have been remembered as much if it didn't go on as long as it did.

*Jephael* · 11-20-2011, 04:44 PM

Looks like I am yet again the odd man out. I voted "The Missing Map" as my favorite.

Ulisa · 11-20-2011, 05:47 PM

I personally chose "Bye Bye Fly" though I liked a lot of the episodes here. I didn't really start disliking a lot of episodes until about Season 7. The exception to that is "Mr. Ogg Goes to Town" and I'm fairly sure I don't need to go into detail about why I loathe that episode.

Anyway, back on track, I liked the different interactions we got in "Bye Bye Fly." The three turtles dealing with one of them transformed into a "teenage mutant ninja gerbil' to quote Rapheal, was entertaining and yet at the same time, I found it sweet. Since I love seeing the four turtles interact, Raphael in particular taking a protective streak over him I thought was cute.

I also like Baxter in general. It was intriguing to see him slowly lose his grip on reality over the various episodes. His friendship with computers was played out in quite a few episodes and I loved it.

I like that episode a lot too, but not over some of the others.

I am pretty glad Zack's, "girlfriend," only appeared in 1 episode. I don't think I could tolerate sitting through Zack and a girl who could pass for his sister in multiple eps.

*Jephael* · 11-21-2011, 07:58 AM

I liked those two together. If this had been a live action series we would've seen those two grow up. BTW, I'm surprised you're not aware that Zach's name is spelled with an H instead of a K at the end.

I went with Shredderville, but I also like the 3 part finale.
