Half-Shell Heroes: Blast to the Past

I have sat through this show three times in the last two days, my 3yr old son is sick, and wants nothing else on the TV. It is a simple and cheerful animation style, and relatively uncomplicated story- line, despite time-travel to the Cretacious. Similar to Kodomomuke anime,this one is clearly intended for kids. With no Splinter, no Shreodder, no April and no Casey, probably not best for the die-hard fans of the TMNT of my youth. Rocksteady and Bebop are more sympathetic characters than usually depicted. If separated from the previous interpretations of these characters, this is a charming little story about a team of turtles wielding Japanese weapons. These are not your mother's Ninja Turtles.
