Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series 

 

I am extremely thankful Family Friendly Gaming was given a retail copy of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series on DVD. This is the Turtles show from 2012 to 2017. As I write this review Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series is selling for anywhere between thirty and fifty dollars. This collection includes all 124 episodes on 20 DVD discs, and it is 2819 minutes long. I did the math and Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series is over forty six hours in length. There will be spoilers in this review.

I have been watching so much of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series that my brain has the theme song on repeat. I am also a bit sick of the theme song. To be completely transparent I did fast forward through one to two episodes per disc and still got the gist of what was going on. I can see why the end came for this series. Maybe they knew and finished off the fifth and last season that way for a reason. By the way, the disc naming convention is odd. Most shows have season one, disc one, and so on. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series has different names like packs. For example Return to New York, Retreat, Revenge Disc 1, Revenge Disc 2, and other different names.

I accidently watched a few discs out of order because I was not clear on what was next. There are plenty of interesting sagas and storyline are drawn out across multiple episodes. There are plenty of interesting story arcs found within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. We own the Turtles cartoon from the 90s. We have not gotten around to watching it yet. I plan on trying to review one season at a time with that show. This show does pay homage to that one in multiple episodes.

Krang is a whole race that have tons of troops to invade the Earth. Other alien races also invade the Earth and one winds up destroying it. Time travel is utilized multiple times within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. There are certain characters that can time travel and they enlist the aid of the Turtles on their missions. The art within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series felt strange at first. I recognized some of the voice actors within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. Michaelangelo for example also voices Beast Boy. One of the Turtles feels like the same guy from the 90s show.

Splinter and Shredder have an amazing rivalry in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. Shredder winds up killing Splinter twice in this show. After the second time the Turtles kill Shredder. Shredder does come back as some undead creature for a short while. There are tons of mutants found in this show. I do like how we see their origins as humans in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series.

The issues families can have with Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series are violence, false gods, spirits, strange afterlife, demon, ghosts, magic, psychic, rebellion and more. April is a teenager in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. April also has psychic powers because she is half Krang. The theme song sounded strange and different to me at first. I eventually got used to it.

Characters change along the way in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. Some get turned into mutants and others get to go human again. Super Shredder is crazy in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. There is some humor within Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. At times the older show is respected and other times it is totally disrespected in this show.

Krang is able to go across dimensions in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. That is how we get connected to the older show. There are episodes with eight Turtles instead of four. We have both versions in the older cartoon style, and the newer style. The same goes for the enemies in Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series. It can be interesting to compare and contrast the differences between the characters.

When Splinter and Shredder are both killed off for good I felt like Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series was slipping and losing itself. They really needed to bring in some real good new bad guy. Instead Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series floundered at the end. It really was the downfall of this show in my opinion. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles The Complete Series felt a lot like a comic book in how the story telling was done.
