New Episode Discussion: "Junklantis"

**Kali** · 04-02-2004, 02:59 PM

While taking their new Shell Sub out for a little joyride, the Turtles come across an old enemy. One they'd hoped to never see, or smell, again!

That's right, The Garbage Man has returned! And he's been busy rebuilding his empire under the waves! Still scavenging from junk, this time he's taking what's on the river beds... even if he has to put it there himself!

Well, it's a dirty job, but somebody's got to do it.

((Since I'm on Pacific Time, I'm not gonna be on in time to unlock this, so I ask that a fellow mod be prepared to do so.))

HmHmHm. The GarbageMan is back. This should be an interesting episode.

*Stone Ill* · 04-03-2004, 08:00 AM

Dammit.

I missed it.

Oh well, it'll be back on at 12:30.

*Bry* · 04-03-2004, 08:07 AM

...um, yeah.

Can't say it was my favourite episode yet. Can't say it was anywhere near.

To be honest, it was probably one of the worst.

No sir, I don't like it.

*Anarchistguy* · 04-03-2004, 08:11 AM

eeehh...I didn't expect much from this episode anyway. Next week doesn't look like a winner either. I don't think it sucked, though.

**Jo Dawn** · 04-03-2004, 08:11 AM

I didn't think it was that bad... though I'm a tad biased, as Don was a main part of it this week. There were a few funny parts.

"Mikey's my first mate? Wish me luck." Hehe, and I liked when Splinter shook the water off of himself.

There were a few other parts that I thought were funny, but escape me at the moment...

*Wes* · 04-03-2004, 08:13 AM

Eh, I could've done without this one. Somewhat lame, definitely average, and Mikey irritated the living shell out of me quite a few times during the episode. And Garbageman is one of the dumbest villains ever. He's Mojo without that photogenic alternate universe charm. And where did all of his followers come from? If they were people he'd shipwrecked, you'd think they'd have had aversions to following him...and if they were anyone else, you'd think they'd think twice about following a guy who can't even wipe the drool from his mouth.

And did Hung get on anyone else's nerves during the commercial breaks? Bloody hell.

Sometimes you just have to quote the Simpsons:

Worst. Episode. Ever.

Heh, well put.

I mean, "City At War", for the most part, was quite strong. This was just... sad.

Then again, that seems to happen whenever they take the "Ninja" out of "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles"...

*Taloniss* · 04-03-2004, 08:23 AM

I forgot to add: those tenticles were so Doc Ock. They looked exactly like his.

*cqb101* · 04-03-2004, 08:23 AM

Wow, that episode was pretty sad...... The only good part was Mikey's SW reference.

Aren't you a little too short for a junk trooper?

Glad I wasn't the only one.

creativerealms82 · 04-03-2004, 08:26 AM

Was a pretty weak episode but then again Garbageman was probably my least favorite season one episode so it is not like I had high hopes for this episode.

As for how Garbageman got all those men working for him. I believe they are his same followers from his first episode. The bums probably kicked them out of Junk island.

*Taloniss* · 04-03-2004, 08:27 AM

Garbageman will be back too: he'll be in the earth's core.

And, oh lord, Hung is back on the Fox Box next week. Someone shoot me now.

*Anarchistguy* · 04-03-2004, 08:28 AM

I swear, this episode felt like watching seasons 3-7 of the old cartoon.

I don't understand this Hung craze in the least.

And the Turtles will have to use the Technodrome to drill down to it!!

Mobius One · 04-03-2004, 08:32 AM

Yeah, I'n not really too crazy bout the Garbageman, but I did miss the first five minutes or so...so, uh...what'd I miss?

Oh and ho do you know that he'll be back? Did they put Season 3 up yet on www.ninjaturtles.com ?

Couldn't have said it better myself. 'Garbageman' was a crappy episode with a crappy villain, and sequels usually suck more than the original. Glad to see TMNT keeping up that American tradition. Is 'The Golden Puck' next? That episode sounded like crap, too. Grrrrrrrrrrr... Is it almost season 3 *crosses fingers for the debut of the Rat King*.
