First of i actually for the most parts like this show (Being a Tutles fan since i was a kid) but the single most annoying thing about the show is the way Krang speaks... Why the heck does he/they have to talk that way i just wanna pull out my hair when i hear it. Other then its also another toon where they make the stars kids to relate more to the real kids (it doesnt bother me to much though) overall i hope it'll get more seasons.moreless

Over the past couple of decades we saw the Turtles franchise go through a few "mutations" since it gained popularity in the late 1980s. But this mutation is quite possibly my favorite since the original.

The only thing to dislike about this series has to do with the backroom politics that made this show possible. Namely how Viacom purchased the complete rights to the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles from Peter Laird for $60 million. Hopefully the Creators' Bill of Rights holds for this contract. With that said, on to the review of how I like this series.

Here we have Sean Astin (Sam from Lord of The Rings) and Jason Biggs (Jim Levenstein of The American Pie franchise) as Raphael and Leo joining one of the best voice casts in the industry: Greg Cipes (Beast Boy from Teen Titans), Rob Paulsen (the Original Raphael from the 1987 series), the lovely Mae Whitman (Amber from Parenthood, Katara from Avatar: TLA), Kelly Hu (Phineas and Ferb), Clancy Brown (Highlander), Phil LaMarr (MadTV), Kevin Michael Richardson (The Cleveland Show) with Hoon Lee as Master Splinter.

The series is everything you could want from a TMNT series stuck in the TV-Y7-zone with the Avatar Franchise. Plenty of Canon was taken from the comic book series and previous series including Karai's rivalry with Leo, Baxter's bumbling megalomania, Splinter the wise sensei, and The Shredder as cold heartless villain. The only thing that would make this show so very awesome is (and hopefully I'm not spoiling it) if Baxter becomes The Fly Mutant.

As far as Season 1 goes, things are starting up. You have your four hero brothers, your mutant mini bosses (Dogpound and Fishface), and April training to be kunoichi [female ninja]. Season 2 will likely kick things into high gear once Casey Jones shows up.

The CGI is fairly decent for a show on Nickelodeon which has had a history of having shows with CGI characters as far back as Jimmy Neutron, if I recall correctly.

Oddly enough, my DVR initially recorded this show as an episode of The Legend or Korra, which hopefully we will see season 2 of that show in 2013. In the meantime, TMNT is doing a good job of filling in while the Korra animators are hard at work.

So overall, I'm content with how this show is progressing. Fluid Animation, a good cast, a story just teaming with spoilers that fans are eagerly awaiting to see. I honestly can't think of any reason some folks are hating on this show.

Takes me back to my young childhood.

7.5

By ScottMartinez, Mar 28, 2013

In quality this show is kinda dumb, like the somewhat crude animation, but it does have a lot of good qualities to it. I like the fight scenes, some of the jokes, and its overall a good ninja turtles show. The best part, it really takes me back to my younger childhood.

pretty good, but some things are off the mark

7.5

By campgirl16, Mar 02, 2013

I give this a 7.5 because it has the best animation of any tmnt series so far. It is smooth and gives you a real sense of being in the action. The humor is great, and makes me laugh aloud many times.

It loses a point for the *awful* opening theme. Rap? SRSLY?

Also Mikey is dumbed down waaaaay too much. Splinter is abusive, and that's just not even right. I also am not sure if I love or hate the gap in Donny's teeth.moreless
