Well, we’re at the penultimate of my TMNT Season 3 review articles and the Fred Wolf series has saved the best for almost-last. And by “best” I mean “two Zach the Fifth Tu...

Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Season 3 Review (Part Two)
The third season of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles animated series by Fred Wolf keeps on keepin’ on. In this batch of 6 episodes, we’re introduced to one of my all-time favorite recurring antagonists (the Rat King) and one of my all-time least favorite recurring protagonists (Zach, the Fifth Turtle). So it’s all a matter of give and take, you see. Cameos also abound, from Don Turtelli (who’ll take a larg...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Season 3 Review (Part One)
In my past reviews of the Fred Wolf TMNT animated series, I think I took a jab at season 3 at least once per article. If you’re reading these reviews sequentially, then you probably think I loathe the season with every fiber of my being. Well, that’s only kind of true.

Well, no on the laugh track front, and only occasionally on the cultural references you won't get. No, Peep Show is simply ...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Season 2 Review (Part Two)
In our previous installment, we took a look at the first half of second season of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. In those six episodes, a pretty solid story arc was established and run to its conclusion, as the Shredder was abandoned on Earth by Krang, forced to team up with Baxter Stockman and the Turtles were sent on a race to collect the Eye of Sarnath fragments before they could fall into sinister hands. And al...
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles (1987) Season 2 Review (Part One)
In my previous review for the five-episode first season of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, I mentioned that it contained everything good about the 1987 series produced by Fred Wolf, omitting most of the bad. So, as we begin season two (which consisted of 13 episodes, which I'll break up into two parts), you can immediately discern the downward trend the moment the (still bitchin') title sequence completes itself. Th...
