The 25th Anniversary of TMNT
THE SHOW
The seventh season of this series aired in the second half of 1993. It is notable for a number of reasons, the most obvious being that it marked the end of an era in terms of the overall tone and look of the show. Starting with the show's eighth season, which aired the following year, nearly all the hallmarks of the show - all the touchstones that made the series what it was - would be gone. But I'm getting ahead of myself. Let us break down the seventh season of the show.
The first 13 episodes of the seventh season are what fans have dubbed the "European Vacation" shows. These episodes have always been a bit of a mystery among fans, if only because, in some aspects of the story, they seem to be out of place in the seventh season. During the first episode of the fourth season, the Turtles find out that they have won a vacation to Europe. So, it would stand to reason that the first leg of season four would be the Turtles' adventures traveling...
The Seventh Slice: Part 3
For the 25th Anniversary of TMNT, LionsGate released Season 7 in four part DVDs.
Season 7 Part 3 Episodes are:
Convicts from Dimension X
The Starchild
The Legend of Koji
Night of the Dark Turtle
White Belt, Black Heart
Attack of the Neutrions
Escape from the Planet of the Turtleoids
The special feature is A Shellabration of The TV Sensation: New Interviews with the Hit Show's Creative Team.
I only bought the season in four parts so I could get the the miniature TMNT toys. I recommend others to buy the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles: The Complete Season 7 Set.
Now We're Talking
This is where Season 7 finally shines. These episodes are great. This was the boarder of the old toon switching formats into the Red Sky episodes. I loved this season because they focused on characters other then just Shredder and Krang. The stories also weren't bad at all. The Don disk has some great ones on it.
This is worth it for sure. It's only 7 episodes again but they're good episodes. The only downside is the special features are still very bad.
