This show is one of the best iterations of the Turtles we have. It cheats a little in that it borrows heavily from all the sources we have before, but it does so with grace and gives it a fresh look that we can look past it.
This episode in particular is great for those who've read the original Mirage comics. Let's face it: the Mirage comics, while starting it all, were very cheesy at times, and the issue with Renet is no exception. I remember reading that issue many years ago and thought it corny and fantastic at the same time. We pretty much have the same plot happening here in Nick's version, except Renet has been far less sexualized (obviously). The show screams '70s and '80s fantasy; I practically smiled the whole time.
