Customer Reviews of Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles - Original Series (Season 5) - (3-Disc Set)
Cheesy, but nostalgic This was the forth season that was cheesy. It's entertaining if you grew up watching it, or are under the age of 9 or 10. Actually, it was during this season when I was 10 years old that this show no longer seemed appealing to me. I'm just buying it cause I'm hoping that good enough sales eventually lead to the last three seasons/last 24 episodes geting put on DVD. I think the show was actually at its peak during the last three seasons (after the show was revamped and made darker) until it was cancelled. I mean even as cheesy as it is, it is fun to watch if you grew up watching this show, as I did.
Season Five of TMNT on 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!
