Ep. 10 Montereys of Future Past
Sometimes this show is fun to make. Sometimes. This is one of them, we draw up the battle lines between Chip 'n' Dale Rescue Rangers and X-Men The Animated Series. The main points?

Ep. 9 God's Mistakes Fight a Billionaire
Warning: the audio for this episode is garbage. For the first episode of round 2 we have a powerhouse matchup if ever there has been one. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Vs. Batman The Animated series. We introduce the format for round 2 which is randomly choosing 3 criteria to judge the shows on- and boy do we have some shows to judge. These shows are some of the most iconic on our list and it will be a ride to see what comes out on top. Bats and Turtles a classic matchup akin to cats and dogs, Ants and Ant-eaters, humans and humans. Who has the best jam? Which is the best of its franchise? All questions we will try to answer. We are also watching more than the top three imdb episodes, now we are watching the first episode of every season (up to 10 episodes). As always IMDB is our bible for episode numbers and season numbers. Looking at you Disney+ and your 1 season of 64 episodes for basically every show. This week we watched: Batman: The Animated Series Season 1 ep 1 The Cat and the Claw Part I Season 2 ep 1 Shadow of the Bat Season 3 ep 1 Bane Season 4 ep 1 The Terrible Trio Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 1 ep 1 Turtle Tracks Season 2 ep 1 Return of the Shredder Season 3 ep 1 Beneath These Streets Season 4 ep 1 Plan Six from Outer Space Season 5 ep 1 My Brother, the Bad Guy Season 6 ep 1 Rock Around the Block Season 7 ep 1 Night of the Dark Turtle Season 8 ep 1 Get Shredder! Season 9 ep 1 The Unknown Ninja Season 10 ep 1 The Return of Dregg Dear god that was a lot of turtles.

Ep. 8 Biker Mice from Mars Made Me Hate Carlos Santana
Rodents- some fly and beat up people with mental health issues, others ride around on motorcycles and hit on everything that moves. That's right this week we watched Batman: The Animated Series and Biker Mice from Mars, it was the 1st seed versus the 16th seed. Can you guess which one was which? We are talking about animation quality, music/sound design, writing, and overall impact factor. All the usual points, but there may be some surprises in this episode.

Ep. 7 Special Weapons And Turtles- Also Kats
In this episode the bois explore Anthropomorphism; the tendency of humanity to attribute human traits, emotions, or intentions to non-human entities. Which is considered to be an innate tendency of human psychology. Turtles that act like people, Kats that act like people- What is not to love! Swat Kats and TMNT are similar in a lot of ways but only one show can come out on top. Will it be the shredding on the electric guitar that pushes the Kats to the next round? Or the actual Shredder that seals TMNT victory? Episodes we watched: Swat Kats Season 1 ep 13 Katastrophe Season 2 ep 2 A Bright and Shiny Future Season 2 ep 9 The Dark Side of the Swat Kats Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Season 1 ep 1 Turtle Tracks Season 1 ep 2 Enter: The Shredder Season 1 ep 5 Shredded & Splintered
