Even as a more forgiving fan of the '12 series, I can agree with you that the first two seasons were the superior seasons, and the show sort of degressed from there.

Anyways, interesting stuff about the Guest Era - it does give you a different light to view ROTTMNT in and totally makes sense with the wild tone of the show. It feels like they handed a blank sheet of paper to someone and said "write the next TMNT show. Do whatever you want. Go nuts with it".

I watched Repo Mantis and it was pretty good. I like the way that Donnie and Mikey work as foils to each other. I think what's a little weird about Mikey is that I don't clearly see a trope that he fits into. All three of the other turtles are almost caricatures of character types: Leonardo is The Rebel™, Raphael is The Big Guy™, and Donatello is The Smart Guy™. I guess maybe Mikey could be The Cutie, but '12 Mikey did a much better job embodying that particular character type. Just thought that was interesting.
