I saw the original series back in the 80s, and like everyone did back then--loved it. I watched the cartoons regularly, and each movie as it came out. The franchise had a good run, but I didn't expect to see it come back. Much to my surprise, in 2003 a brand new cartoon appeared--and the turtles were more serious, the Shredder was actually intimidating, rather than the bumbling villain from the 80s--it didn't take long before I was sucked in. But the DVD releases were lackluster. When everyone else was releasing season sets for $40-$50, you could only buy TMNT episodes 3 to a disc at $15! So I held off on buying them, hoping the company would come to their senses. And now that I was just getting to the point of thinking I would have to go hunt down all the older 3-episode DVDs, they finally wised up! I feel bad for those who already bought the older DVDs, but I'm very glad they are finally being released in this format. It's better for collectors, and more friendly to those who might not have wanted to pay so much for the single discs (like me).
The 2003 cartoon has had great art/animation, and a more serious, exciting tone that has made it alot of fun to watch. If you were a fan of the old show but have never seen this, give it a try, you won't be disappointed.
Since no one else has posted it, here's a list of the episodes that should be on this disc (from an online episode guide-may vary a little):
1- 1 Things Change
1- 2 A Better Mousetrap (1)
1- 3 Attack of the Mousers (2)
1- 4 Meet Casey Jones
1- 5 Nano
1- 6 Darkness on the Edge of Town
1- 7 The Way of Invisibility
1- 8 Fallen Angel
1- 9 Garbageman
1-10 The Shredder Strikes (1)
1-11 The Shredder Strikes (2)
1-12 The Unconvincing Turtle Titan
Overall this should be a great set of solid episodes. I'm definitely pre-ordering this one.

In 2003, 4Kids and Mirage Studios joined forces to bring those heroes on the half-shell back to TV...but this time, they mean business. This Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles series was inspired by the original, darker and edgier comics that made their debut in 1984.With significant input from Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, co-creator Peter Laird, the episodes are based on those early storylines and a graphic visual style comic fans love. Watch as the Turtles evolve from four talented but inexperienced martial arts "brawlers" into a well-honed fighting unit taught by their sensei Master Splinter.Join them as they take on they take on their arch nemesis, the Shredder.Be there as each saga unfolds and our heroes learn thatteamwork is one of their most powerful assets.
