Mazes and Mutants reminds me of the episode SuperQuest from TMNT: Back to the Sewer. But there are many differences.

(I gotta say, Donnie's sorcerer outfit in SuperQuest was awesome. And it still is.)

Follow the Leader, it was a nice arc for both Leo and Raph. Raph showed he could be a great Leader and Leo had to become a better one who inspires his team. Also some nice Leo and Karai development.

Even though I really did enjoy Mazes & Mutants, and all of the references made to Dungeons & Dragons, Dragon's Lair, Lord of the Rings, etc., and Mikey's comment about the "80s" being the "dark ages", my vote will have to go to Follow the Leader.

I liked the development pertaining to Leo and the other three learning that they need to listen to Leo more and follow his direction at times and it was nice seeing Raph lead a bit and not freaking out or anything, like in New Girl in Town. It was really good. I also like how challenging the Footbots were for them, which is why it's bothersome how Casey and April lasted so long against them in Target April O'Neil.

As much as I enjoy Mazes and Mutants, I'd have to say Follow the Leader.

Follow the Leader. Despite being mostly a Leo-centric ep, it's nice seeing Raph step up and assume leadership for a brief moment.

Donnie got a little time to shine too:



Heck, even the pigeons had some awesome screen time!



Wondering if they're all just Meep Meeps now?

Also, GO NINJA GO NINJA GO!!

Follow the Leader. I've always loved the Karai / Leo development and interaction and this episode was chock full of it. I also loved how everyone had their own unique fighting style and that it was Leo who had to learn to accept that.

Mazes and Mutants was fun, but Follow the Leader is just a step above.
