TMNT 2003 Season 1 Review

Hey guys, Raphael here at the Teenage Mutant

Ninja Turtles. Did you say podcast? Dudes, do

this! You're listening to a podcast on the Gatecast

Radio Network. Hello and welcome to episode 63

of Tooncast Beyond brought to you by the GeekCast

Radio Network. I'm your host, TF2, and Mike,

and joining me is Steve Megatron. Hello. Hello.

Okay, so as we've been saying since episodes

60 .5 and episodes 61 and 62, we are going to

be reformatting Toon Beyond and moving towards

a seasonal format. What this means is instead

of overall cartoon series reviews, we're going

to go take a look at each season in depth. Today,

we're going to give you our thoughts on Team

NT 2003 season one. And Steve has nothing to

say about this yet. Great. Doesn't matter if

we podcast at 5 a .m. folks or midnight. Yeah.

All right. So setting the stage. This is the

series from Fox Kids slash for kids and whatever

other. Fox box whatever other thing that thing

became way back when 13 marks. Oh my god 13 years

ago It was I know. Yeah, it's well. Yeah. Yeah,

it is 13 Yeah, cuz yeah, what's funny is is how

many different networks this show? It's been

on Yeah, cuz it's had so many seasons, but we

are going to be talking about season one Just

to give you an overall kind of setting the stage,

kind of behind the scenes kind of thing, the

series in a large part is a larger scope of the

Turtles Adventures. It takes them from the sewers

to the streets of New York City, namely April's

apartment, to the woodlands of rural New England,

to outer space, alternate dimensions, to the

future, and ultimately home once more. My first

impressions 13 years ago. Oh my god. I was 23.

Holy crap I was still you know Obviously we both

grew up on the 87 series and the original movies

and all that I Wasn't in the 87 series. I mean

the 87 series ran from 87 to 96 it ran almost

Well, it did run ten seasons. I think it ran

into 97 as well, but I could be wrong about that

but I mean the original series had 10 years this

one had I don't know five or six I think something

like that so I was I remember back then in 2003

when Saturday morning cartoons were still Saturday

morning cartoons unlike today Remember really

digging the show. I didn't really pay that much

attention to it. I was 23 I was you know in college

and doing some stuff with you know trying to

get a degree in all that crap way back then But

I mean I had caught up with several of the episodes

I I watched enough of the show at the time when

it first aired That I knew the different voices

of the turtles I knew Splinter's voice I knew

shredder's voice, and I knew somewhat of what

the show was going on, but Back then, I wasn't

watching it every single week. It's not because

I didn't want to, it's just I was growing out

of cartoons back then, I guess. I don't know,

which is weird. But what are your first impressions?

What do you first remember watching this show

initially? I remember watching it when it started

airing, which is funny enough because I was nearing

the end of high school, meaning I was like 11th

grade when I caught it. and I wasn't really sure

what to think of it because I was expecting the

original 87 Turtles and not what this was because

it's a lot more a lot more serious a lot less

like kind of well let's just say it for what

it is the 80s one was a lot more campy not to

the extent that Turtles Forever you know parodied

it but it was was definitely not as as kind of

goofy as that show and kind of the turtles were

more, you know in hiding then in the open and

Yeah, there was the color palette was darker.

The the voice actors were similar to the originals,

but they weren't Again, they weren't like kind

of like upbeat. They were more dark and more

More center to their character. And so it was

kind of Interesting to see this new direction

that they were taking turtles and not that I

had a problem with it because I didn't each incarnation

has actually been really good in its own way

But it's it's got almost that in and I I've seen

this reference a couple different places almost

kind of a akin to like a Justice League type

of style to it. Mm -hmm. Well, it's cuz they

were trying to homage and kind of go by the original

mirage comics style they they didn't want it

too dark but they didn't want it too bright they

just wanted somewhere in the middle and I think

it fell very well with what we've got I have

spent folks the last two or three weeks in getting

this episode prepared I've actually watched the

entire first season it's the first time I've

seen it in at least Ten years, maybe I haven't

seen this show. I've seen bits and pieces of

it I know I always knew the show existed, but

I never actually sat down to watch it and Through

somebody I don't remember who the hell it even

was I've and I'm not gonna say what the website

is if people want me to If you want to know where

I'm fine Yeah Where I'm finding all these cartoons

to watch? Just email me or DM me on Twitter or

whatever. But I, you know, I've spent the last

two or three weeks getting prepared, kind of

getting into the new year and being prepared

for us to do this discussion. And I watched the

first 26 episodes of the first season and man,

does this show kick shell. Just does. So as always,

even though this is a seasonal Review where we

still have to go through the who's who of the

show as far as the voice cast the main cast includes

Mike Cintricum I can't even say his last name

the guy that voices Leonardo Darkley and I'll

grab a turtle and Lord heavy I just can't I not

even try do you want me to You can try if you'd

like he plays who? Leo is the very first on the

list there. Okay. It's It's Mike Sinterniclos,

I guess. Sinterniclos, I don't know. Sam Riegel

plays Donatello, Dr. Chaplin, Zippy Ladd for

the first time, Dark Donatello. Chelectro. Chelectro,

yep. Frank Frankson plays Raph, Dark Raph, Griddix,

and Officer Laird. Wayne Grayson is Mikey. That's

his full name, Bruce Wayne, Dick Grayson. Yeah,

Wayne Grayson is Mikey Crang gruel metalhead

dark Mikey ploboy and a bunch of other noble

Yeah, cyber shredder Greg Carey no relation to

Jim is hun as far as I know it's no relation

to Jim Carey Yeah, Darren Dunstan is splinter

and he's also the council of three and a few

others David, Zen, Mansley is Bishop, Savanti,

Romero, Zog, Rat King, Monzeram, and a bunch

of other characters. Karen, Neil is Karai, Ernell

is Karai. Scotty Ray is Shredder or Okasaki.

Tengu Shredder. All the various Shredders. Yeah.

Veronica Taylor, aka Ash Ketchum from Pokemon,

is April O 'Neil. Nice. Mark Thompson is Casey

Jones, Ultimate Daimeo, Drago, Mr. Touch, various

others. Scott Williams is Baxter, and Christopher

C. Adams is Cody Jones. And there are a bunch

of other guest characters and stuff like that.

Under the guest characters, like, was this show

not Union? Because I don't recognize any of these

people. Like even in the main cast. I think they

were going for a lot of different voices and

I don't think that it was any I think because

it was such a huge pool. Mm hmm. Because like

they even have like second voice or like first

voice of some of the characters. So like, well,

Sean Schemmel's in there. Yeah. OK. You know,

Sean Schemmel and nobody and some other people.

He's about the only name that I recognize in

that list. He's Goku in Dragon Ball Z. The rest

of them, I have no idea who they are. Yeah, I'm

wondering. I don't have a problem with it. I

think it's great. Like I said, I've only seen

so far the first season. And I've seen the other

seasons in passing. But as I said at the beginning

of this, I've never actually watched this show

all the way through. Not that I didn't want to

it just it's just one of those things folks when

I've got so much content to To consume so much.

Yeah, your brain can only process so much, you

know It's you know, it's like when we first started

to cast classic and even now and it would to

cast beyond everybody's asking Oh, are you gonna

do this? You're gonna do this. You can do this.

My answer is always We'll get to it sooner or

later And And well, you know and that that's

kind of why I wanted to do the the seasonal breakdown

now instead of doing an overall kind of thing

for the show for the whole show Because this

allows us to you know Do various different cartoons

and give you guys the listeners a variety of

stuff instead of just saying oh, hey This is

our definitive episode of this and and we're

actually gonna be going back and redoing some

old classic stuff as well. Tooncast classic stuff

in the coming months and years and however long

my voice holds out. But Tooturtles, Season 1.

Do you remember the first episode that you had

seen of this, or did you just see the... the

very first episode? Did you fall somewhere in

the middle? I know you said you watched it when

it was airing. I started watching it right when

it first started coming on. There was no time

lapse really. I pretty much immediately started

watching it. It was interesting. You know So

the first 26 episodes we have this Starting off

what I love about this show and this is what

a lot of shows were doing back at this time in

2003 as you mentioned earlier about Justice League

Justice League ran from 2001 or 2006 and There

were a lot of shows at this time not just cartoons,

but also live -action TV that would do the the

intro clip then you would get whatever the theme

song was or whatever the the actual opening to

the show you know you compare this to 87 87 you

as soon as it came on you had the opening intro

and then it went right into the story it's kind

of like you know opening a book you know you

have the opening of the beginning first few covers

it's kind of like the theme song you have a little

title card and then you open the story with this

this opens at some point in the story of that

episode And they leave you on a cliffhanger and

then they bring you into the intro. What did

you think of that story device? I kind of like

it. It kind of gives that normal breakout thing

that they do in most modern shows or at that

time anyway. Gotta say folks this story this

season one story just progressed so well And

you start off with the turtles kind of going

up against the purple dragons and then we get

into Baxter Now correct me if I'm wrong. Did

they have purple dragons in the original show?

No, that's what I thought I that was something

that was a little odd to me in this but I just

kind of rolled with it This will know in the

in the original cartoon. It was bebop and rock

city and the punks And then it was basically

Crank and Shredder and Dimension X and all that

stuff. We will be going back, people, as I said

earlier. We are going to be covering various

classic, Tunecast classic episodes as seasons

at some point. So I'm sure we'll be going back

to to 87 and 88 and all that good stuff. But

no, they didn't have the Purple Dragons back

then. I didn't mind it here, because again, you

know, watching this now, 13 years after it aired.

I went into it thinking, okay turtles, I love

turtles, I wanna see what they do with this,

and I've been watching the current Nick series

that's been going on since 2012, so I'm like,

okay, I know the 2003 series is a bit different,

so let's kind of go in with an open mind and

see what happens. And the Purple Dragons was

a nice little added element, because one thing

that always kind of bugs me about turtles in

New York City is they very rarely show any people.

Like, they do and they don't. It just depends.

But most of the time in the cartoons, when you're

facing Baxter or Shredder or Krang or whatever,

there's no other citizens around. There's no

police around. And I understand that, and I'm

not complaining about that. But that was one

of the things I liked about this, where they

show you that, oh, New York still has street

gangs and yada, yada, yada. This season opens

with kind of like I said opens with this You

know things change kind of thing and then we

go into the Baxter story with the mousers it's

almost Mimicking the first five episodes of the

original 87 series It's just a little bit more

serious because that's kind of the route that

the 87 series took was you know you had The turtles

fight, you know in their lair meeting April With

this one it was kind of different because you

had April not as a reporter But she was a tech

girl working for Baxter Stockman. What'd you

think of that? Of them kind of mirroring the

the start that and April had not being the reporter

I was fine with April not being a reporter. That

was kind of like a Easy way to kind of throw

her into the original show And then having her

be kind of techy in this was kind of interesting

to do that different They keep mutating her character

every season or every not every season every

show every incarnation To be something different

to fill that role that they they need that isn't

really present And and I'm fine with that As

far as kind of mimicking some of the episodes

in the initial like original show, you know with

the mouse ears Kind of seem like a natural progression

to kind of get that in there You have the punks

that were the you know, the purple dragons basically

and then you have Stockman which kind of forgoes

having shredder, you know at least initially

be the villain Yeah, you have stockman being

the villain at first in this first season and

then shredder comes out But see shredder here

is so it's not the shredder. We know I mean it

is and it isn't it's Well, he's at least human

to begin with To begin with yeah, there's there

are others Yeah Through smaller doses through

future mutants But yeah, no, I mean shredder

in the beginning is human. He is a Rokosaki.

We do get the story of how Instead of what happened

in the 87 series where himata Yoshi became a

splinter this follows like I said the mirage

comics and for me because I've never actually

read the the original mirage comics this follows

for me the original movie plot line from 1990

where splinter is the pet of homato yoshi and

homato yoshi dies and splinter gets mutated along

with the turtles and i do find it funny though

that uh marty eisenberg's got a lot of writing

credits for the first season oh and michael ryan

and eric lou they're all like pretty much the

main they're pretty much the guys yeah marty

eisenberg has a lot of them though yeah i just

think it's awesome i really really do As we go

through the season we have Episodes including

the shredder strikes parts 1 & 2 where they'll

meets Arukasaki Yep And Arukasaki tries to basically

corrupt Leo to joining his side and that doesn't

exactly work we encounter the Sword of Tengu

Yeah, nobody needs to touch that without a glove

I do I do find it interesting that They they

actually take you know a lot of the the two -parters

and a lot of stuff or three -parters Throughout

the season. There's also you know they have TCR

I in there Yeah See that see that was the cool

thing for me about about this show is you have

a nice setup at the beginning with for the first

season you have the introduction of the turtles

you have the introduction of the purple dragons

in the first episode you then have the Baxter

storyline which leads up to the shredder storyline

we have the introduction of shredder we then

have a three -parter called notes from the underground

because it during the during the first 11 episodes

of this first season we have the turtles needing

to because of the mousers needing to find a new

layer they find splinter finds this new layer

but apparently it's some sort of alien the men

not dimensional it's some sort of alien foreign

thing to them and with notes from the underground

we find out it was part of shredders or underground

labs and whatever else and we find these um These

I don't want to call them super mutants, but

these these really deranged looking mutants and

They've been so mutated to the point where they'll

probably never become human again and the story

evolves into oh Well, if you keep them down here

in this, you know hidden like journey to the

center of the earth kind of place You're like,

oh they'll survive. They'll be alright. They'll

be human again if they stay here, but if they

don't stay here then they'll change the mutants

again and then the season gets back to you know

shredder obviously is not gone he comes back

you know return to new york all that stuff uh

what did you think of it being casey's grandma's

farm instead of april's you know it really didn't

bother me on that kind of specific yeah like

because those those kind of little details i

don't i don't really care um it's when they majorly

change something but i i was fine with that You

know I like the episode episode season one episode

16 the king this was their homage to Jack the

King Kirby Where they basically have him You

know have an animated character renting out April's

basement. I thought that was kind of cool and

he has He has some sort of magic crystal that

allows all these drawings to come to life And

it was just it was an actual look of that in

the 87 have it okay and it's Donatello goes into

this alternate world that Kirby draws or writes

or whatever and it's you know it's through a

mirror type thing it's really it's really trippy

but it's I I still have it it's actually It's

actually somewhere in in the office like with

the the books that I had as a kid. So Cool Yeah,

so we have that episode another episode we had

was Because I kind of I mean what I like about

this this series is it's it's a full -on continent

Everybody knows I'm a continuity buff, and it's

it's pretty much a full -on Storyline from episode

1 to episode 26, but there are a couple like

the whole you know Like the king episode there

are a couple of one -offs here And it's not honestly

a bad thing at all because it actually gives

us time to look at the turtles like What's that

one? What is that episode the The is it the unconvincing

turtle Titan or something yeah, it's when Mikey

tries to become a superhero yeah that's what

it is the unconvincing turtle titan season one

episode 12 um mikey trying to become a superhero

that's just hilarious i just love that so much

uh as we progress through this as i said we have

a second you know kind of final battle with shredder

here this is when the council and bishop are

revealed to us the viewers Bishop is revealed

to the turtles as a friend and it turns into

they need to find Splinter. Something has happened

to Splinter. Someone's got him. No one knows

what happened. And we eventually get back to...

Guess the technic. Well, I guess it could be

called the technodrome. We get I know it's it's

it's the TCR. Yeah, they don't have the technical

Yeah TCR I building they get to that and you

find splinter is captured and What did you think

of this? Because this ends with the search for

splinter two -parter What did you think of the

of a season of a cartoon? Ending on a cliffhanger

because it ends with a two -week in like seat

like Part two of the search for splinter doesn't

wrap up. It doesn't get a happy ending It basically

says to be continued at the end of it I'm perfectly

fine with that because it's no different than

any other show And Like I said, it's it's I kind

of expect it from a good show most part because

How else are they gonna hook you into another

season? besides the fact that You know, it's

turtles. Yeah, that's true Do you have a Favorite

episode or a favorite two -part or a favorite

storyline from this first season that you really

liked out of them all um Really I like Anytime

the shredders present which is not really narrowing

it down all that much But I usually Enjoy those

episodes more than anything But I would definitely

say like almost the the shredder strikes It's

kind of the best in there because of the fact

that You get shredder playing the other side

of the fence trying to say hey, I'm just this

Oroku Saki guy And I'm fighting evil and you

come join me and Leo's like oh I come join you

and they're like no no no no no talk to Splinter

first Yeah, so I mean that's just I don't know

that's just kind of fun there too It's a different

take on the shredder showing that oh It's playing

the sly card instead of you know like oh trust

me, and then they're like You know they find

out his true motives of these like I will kill

you you don't stand with me you evil bastard

Yeah, if you like that storyline you're really

gonna like and I know I gotta I gotta get you

around to reading this but you're gonna really

like the the city fall storyline that That IDW

did for turtles for their ongoing turtle series

because it essentially is that but it's in comic

form and it's it's just it's not the exact same

thing because shredder in the comics is not a

neutron but at least not in the I .D .W. series,

he isn't, but it's just so powerful with the

way that they've set all that up. For me, with

season one, I like the Donnie and the Mikey episodes.

I think if there was an episode I could do without,

I mean, I know it was character progression for

them and that's fine, but the one episode I could

probably not need to watch again is Raph and

the Cub. That episode was a little weird I mean

I get they're trying to progress Raph's character

and I get he's trying to you know be a teacher

to to the to the kids kind of like when How Raph

met Casey how met Raph met Casey Jones in this

series you know obviously going through Raph's

anger issues and Raph has kind of realized oh

my god I am too angry and then he comes up against

Casey and Casey's like ten times worse than his

anger as he's trying to teach I mean I like that

character development, but I don't know, that

Raph and the Cub episode was just a little too

weird for me. Do you have a favorite voice of

either the Turtles or Shredder or any other characters?

Do you get a favorite voice out of this one?

I do enjoy Shredders, but I almost like the...

I'd rather hear this Casey Jones compared to

the original TMNT. I just didn't care for the

original. It was too... I don't know. Backwoods

like You know, I just I did I don't know I like

this one better it was kind of more Normal you

could say yeah, and then some of the turtles

like they they were more more serious So I kind

of liked that that a little bit more even though

it wasn't the original actors Because a lot of

the old voices kind of meshed together a lot

if you weren't carefully listening this there's

a more distinguished voice to all the turtles

so in that I like that yeah the only thing I

don't like about Casey in this series to this

point in season one is him having the catchphrase

goongala that's a bad you know like early 2000s

For me, it's probably Donnie and Mikey. I've

always loved Donnie and Mikey. They have always

been my favorites. This was on for about five

years or so from 2003 to 2008. Actually, no,

last year, 2003 to 2010. No, this was on for

seven. Wow. Yeah season one was what was pretty

awesome going back and watching it again For

the kind of like the first time and noticing

all the different character traits and noticing

How good the animation is? I mean for two, you

know for 2003 animation I will say though around

that time period Like in the late 90s in the

early 2000s kind of like that and that kind of

almost six -year gap There was a lot of this

type of animation really dark gritty kind of

Style to them like if you look at You know spider

-man unlimited Gi Joe extreme and like this like

it's a lot of the same type of aesthetic I mean,

this is more polished than those but it's still

a lot darker Yeah, so it's a lot more serious

Yeah, yeah, absolutely and I I just absolutely

love it I mean comparing it to the original 87

series like I said, it's it's you know, it's

apples and origins oranges or it's You know two

sides of the same coin kind of thing After watching

the first season and ending on the cliffhanger

of the 2b container unlike Okay, so I guess I'll

start watching the second season now and I'm

realizing oh wait I need to wait to do that because

I need to give people some time between because

how I want to space out the seasonal stuff folks

is I want to give you like ten episodes of Season

ones of various cartoons and then later on down

the line another ten episodes of season twos

or whatever else so But I mean, just as, you

know, just as pure enjoyment, I almost went and

found Season 2, and I'm like, oh, Season 2, let's

watch this now. Wait a minute, I gotta just pace

myself here. But the animation was top -notch.

The way the story was done was great. The voice

acting was stellar. So many different visuals

in this show now. You know, you got the... the

the the battleshell battleshell is kinda awesome

depending on who drives it but the battleshell

is awesome the fact that raf has his own cycle

motorcycle that comes out of the back of it that's

pretty cool uh... yeah i mean this this show

is turning out to be uh... i don't know after

watching the first season of this Then watching

several episodes of the 87 series and still watching

the tour I don't know well if I was gonna rank

the just the three cartoon series I don't know

where I would put any of them like one two or

three Right now 2003 is just because I'm kind

of engrossed into it. It's it's kind of Kind

of probably hitting my number one at this point

for turtle stuff for animation anyway What's

What are you looking forward to in the future

seasons as we go through this? I could have swore

there was in and for some reason it's it's in

the back of my mind And I don't remember if this

is actually like part of the show or not I Could

have swore there was in the 2003 show that there

was an episode where April O 'Neil got mutated

Don't and I can't remember for sure but I could

have swore I saw an episode like that and I was

like what the hell Like I just it's something

that stuck with me about the show like for ages

and then the fact that it changes You know directions

like three four times during the show The first

four seasons are pretty much straightforward

storytelling. Each season just kind of changes,

but when we get to season five, six, seven, eight,

and nine, they either all have subtitles or they

have, you know, elements to them. Like I think

season six is fast forward when they time travel

and all that stuff, which at the time I remember

when When the fast -forward season was on TV,

I do remember just kind of cringing at that I'm

like wait what and it wasn't even really the

content of the show that I was cringing on it

was just seeing the advertisements of it and

realizing Fast forward. What are they doing fast

forward? It's like are they are they stuck in

the VCR or something else? Yeah But I am very

much looking forward to watching more of the

2003 Turtle series. As I said, just everything

about season one, just absolutely loved it. There

wasn't like, normally when I go through and I

do a full -on review show of any cartoon, you

take a look at TFG -1 or Beast Unleashed or Transformation

Animation or any of those or Powers of Grayskull

or Mask or whatever. I usually try to find stuff

that I can analyze or nitpick at. I really have

no individual nitpicks for this first season.

It was all just so damn good. Like I said, there's

probably one or two episodes I could not need

to watch again. Like I said, Raf and the Cub,

but other than that, this was a fun ride back

to what was going on in animation 13 years ago.

On a scale of zero to five stars, what would

you give season one? I'd probably give it a four

to be fair like it's it's not perfect, but it's

it's not the worst It's not the worst thing I've

ever seen and I can actually like There's not

a lot of animated shows that when I grew up Before

you know before high school ended or whatever

that I can Still go back and watch Yeah, there's

not a lot of shows that can do that for me like

even the 87 turtles like a lot of the episodes

are like big Big floating turds like they're

just nothing good about them There are I'm not

saying there aren't good episodes because there

are plenty of good episodes in the old show I

just there's certain ones. I just can't watch

anymore In ten see so much as a kid and well,

I quit watching after like season eight the original

show Yeah, see if the original show I didn't

even I have the entire series. I just oh yeah,

I mean I watched like the first well the first

season It's just so silly, and then this is the

way stuff was done back then. The first season

of the 87 shows is just the first five -parter,

the opening five -parter, and then it goes into

season two. In the beginning of season two, we

get the continuation there with the hot -rodding

teenagers and all that stuff. But like, I, as

a kid watching that show, I stopped probably

somewhere around the middle of season two. So

again, that's one of the reasons why... With

this Tooncast Beyond new format, the seasonal

format, it's going to be interesting going back

and watching some of the classic stuff that we've

already done in Tooncast Classic in this seasonal

format now to kind of give everybody updated

versions of those old episodes and also get our

fresh takes now and see how the shows stack up

today. I, as a rating, I am also going to give

it a four. Like I said, there are just a couple

of things that I can think of that just kind

of are meh for me on the show. But other than

that, overall, I thought the whole storytelling,

the voice acting, the animation, all stellar.

Some of the concepts, some of the story concepts

are really, really interesting. When and where?

Well, when and where, I believe the show is on...

DVD it I thought it was on DVD at some point

I'm sure it is and you can catch it on Nickelodeon

sometimes Yeah, that was the other thing The

when I still had cable television Nicktoons the

the the Retro cartoon thing that Nickelodeon

has called Nicktoons they did like a whole like

over what is it over new years or over i don't

know i think it was like new years last year

or something or the beginning of of 2015 they

had like a whole week where from 7 to 10 p .m

eastern time they were running these episodes,

they were running this series, not necessarily

season one, but they were running this series

on Nickelodeon every Monday through Friday for

about two weeks during the holiday season of

2014 and 2015. Looking at TV shows on DVD .com,

the show was released in various seasons, season

one, volume one and two, season two, part one

and part two, season four. Season five, season

six, volume one and two, and then there's various

individual episode releases like Meet Casey Jones

and Cowabunga Christmas and Michelangelo's Christmas

Rescue and that kind of stuff. So the show is

on DVD. You can find at least season one, two,

four, five and six. I don't know why season three

or season seven, eight and nine are not there,

but You can find it on DVD and as I said earlier
