This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Original Series - Season 5 (DVD)

it's great to have the original cartoon of "TMNT" but r.smith is right, (planet of the turtleoids) is missing from this season because there are 20 episode's in season 5 so they must be planning to put it in the next volume seeing that there are 16 episode's in season 6 but i can not find any reference to (Once Upon a Time Machine) in any season unless it go's by another name but all in all i can say were about half way by now because there are 1-193 episode's across 10 SEASON'S in the original cartoon but from season 8-10 there are only 24 episode's in total (8 episode's in season 8, 8 episode's in season 9, and 8 in season 10) so they might be planning to put season's 8-10 on one dvd. so here is a list of the episode's to come-

3.0 out of 5 stars Great series, still missing episodes from Season 5, August 6, 2007

By 

R. Smith "overseer of reason" - See all my reviews

This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Original Series - Season 5 (DVD)

"Once Upon a Time Machine" and "Planet of the Turtleoids parts 1 and 2" from seasons 4 and 5 were not released in this set or the previous set. Hopefully Season 6 will include these missing episodes. It really gets annoying when shows are not released in proper order, or grouped properly. The episodes are not in proper order on the DVD's, and there is no episode listing included so you have play each DVD to find the episode you are looking for. The background noise volume seems to be turned up louder than when originally aired (at least on the episodes I have watched so far), which sounded horrible on the Tranformers G1 DVD's (simulated explosions added in by Rhino). This is not as annoying as transformers was, but sometimes the background noise drowns out the voices which irritated me. Other than that this is a good set in a really cool Pizza box DVD case which was very clever, for one of the best Cartoons ever made! But the simple things that I posted ruined my experience a little. But I still recommend buying this set in order to get the entire series released. So packaging gets an A+, Series and shows get an A+, but the organization of this set gets an F-.

5.0 out of 5 stars Season Five of TMNT on DVD, July 8, 2007

By 

Lee DeWald (Nebraska) - See all my reviews

This review is from: Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: Original Series - Season 5 (DVD)

On October 5, 1991, the second season (and fifth overall) of the "Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles" debuted on the CBS network. Riding a wave of almost unparalleled popularity at that time, the series had truly become a pop-cultural phenomenon.

This DVD set contains, to my understanding, 18 episodes of the fifth season of this series. However, for reasons that I don't understand, two episodes from the end of that season, a two-parter that aired in primetime -- "Planet of the Turtleoids" -- has not been included in this set. I am assuming that these episodes will be released in a later set (presumably the sixth season), but to not include them here is a shame. Why Lion's Gate would skimp out on these two episodes remains to be seen.

However, that minor quibble aside, there are some other assorted goodies to feed the senses. Continuing in the tradition that was set with the previous release, there are three bonus features included in this set:

"Heroes in a Half Shell" featurette on the Ninja Turtles phenomenon
"Inside the Turtle Shell" character portrait of Donatello
"Inside the Turtle Shell" character portrait of the Evil Splinter

On a sidenote, it will be interesting to see if the voice actor behind Donatello makes any references to the other voice actor who sometimes portrayed Donatello in the third season. I, in particular, have always been intrigued by this; to my memory, only Donatello and Raphael of the Fearsome Foursome ever had different voice actors at certain times in the series. Donatello and Raphael had notable voice changes in some episodes of the third season (in "The Turtle Terminator," both their voices are different...in the SAME EPISODE!), and a brand new voice actor gave voice to Raphael in the show's final season. But I digress.

Any fan of this classic series (and I am one of the legions!) will pick up this release come August 7, along with a side-order of peanut-butter and pickled-beets pizza, a dish Michaelangelo would have loved. There is much to savor in this three-disk set, "Planet of the Turtleoids" not withstanding.

By the way, I love the box-cover art and packaging for this release. Very clever!
