Episode description
The TMNT franchise has been a model of reliability for 35 years. Through 3 movie series, 5 TV shows, and countless comics, the Turtles' formula has barely changed. Splinter's wise, April's plucky, Shredder snarls, Leonardo leads, Donatello does machines, Raphael is cool but rude, and Michelangelo is a party dude. This franchise has been distilled into a parody of itself. But when you're rebooting for teens and preteens, maybe the best you can hope to do is update the pop culture jokes. How much reinvention is too much? And what does the story of four mutant turtle brothers even mean anymore? We get lost in the weeds and commit absolute blasphemy as we attempt to overhaul one of the most enduring franchises in the history of entertainment. Cowabunga?
