only four years and the Ninja Turtles lasted 10!Why?I also noticed that the
ninja turtles in it's second season also had 65!Like gargoyles.Why?Please
answer me.For the love of a fan.
Greg responds...
In those days, 65 was considered a complete package of episodes.
Enough to run five days a week for one quarter of the year.
I can't tell you why Turtles lasted as long as it has, but
Gargoyles ended after 2 (or 3) seasons, because the ratings didn't seem
strong enough to Disney for them to justify it's ongoing existence,
given that they had 65 (or 78) episodes already in the can.
